MD suburb of DC parking lot SNOW!

[elleng]

A friend's white car is under the snow, between the 'visible' cars!

1. What car? I don't see a car.

Last I checked, 14 inches in Gaithersburg.

2. Dear LibEst, there IS a car!!!

and my friend said he'd clean it off! I said, 'Forget it,' as I'll probably be responsible to get him to a hospital! Kids will probably pass by sometime, to clean it off. MY car is in another lot, and as I must get into DC Monday, I'll deal with that LATER!!!

Weather Channel (on line) estimates 14.9 inches last 24 hours, and maybe 1-3 inches more, but it appears to have ended here, Aspen Hill.

6. You can see the "missing" car more clearly if you boost the brightness of the image...

As posted, the photo is testimony to the fact that exposure meters will render a scene as overall medium gray (18%) even if the scene itself is dominated by snow and therefore should be brighter. The "Levels" adjustment layer in Photoshop is an easy way to fix that syndrome -- using it on this image not only renders snow as white, but shows up the contours of the shapes under it.

7. Thank you for your suggestion about the images.

I was kidding about not seeing the car.

3. This looks like you could have taken it from the upstairs of my house

I'm in a MD suburb of DC too

5. Hi, neighbor!

Yes, upstairs of friend's townhouse.

8. Wow! Lots of snow for you

all down South!

Fun Fun Fun!

9. HA, this ain't SOUTH, Cha,

its MD suburb of DC, 20 or so miles from White House! We're not terribly familiar with large amounts of snow, but daughters would complain if we didn't get much snow in a winter. (That was when we actually lived IN DC.)

Haven't been to the cottage through this, so don't know what it looks like in 'southern' MD, about 70 miles south of DC.

10. I know.. I just meant South

from the Adirondacks in New York and that you were not used to all that snow!

[elleng]

11. I'll give you that!
