Harford County Bracing for Brunt of Round 2

Last Update: 2/10 5:46 am
In Harford County, the beeping of a front end loader is a welcomed sound.  The snow is just as deep, the drifts just as high and the  patience  just as shot.
 
"I’ve lived here 40 years, said Bel Air resident Marie McIntee, “I haven't seen this since I was a little girl.  [Are you excited for another foot?]  NO!  I think I've had my fill of it."

Like many in our area, the people up in Harford County are sick of this snow, but that curmudgeon Old Man winter is about to deal us another blast, and Harford County may feel the brunt.

"That's what they say, but ya know the weather man is wrong every once in a while. I hope he is wrong, I hope the storm goes in a different direction," said County Executive David Craig.

Craig says he is well aware his county may take the hardest punch from this next round.  He says although his snow budget has already been plowed through, the government will re-appropriate funds.
 
Right now Craig stresses, is about getting his road crews rest for Wednesday and patience from citizens.

"We're looking for 8-10 inches easily starting tomorrow so about the time everyone is getting back in sync, we'll be back in un-sync I guess you can say."

Bel Air resident Willie Walker is sick of it too, but will take what nature gives and just deal.

[So what kind of warm thoughts get you through this?]  I don't know, lying in there cozying up with my wife, that always works, we've been married 47 years."

47 years and one long, cold, record breaking winter.
