February Snowstorm 2003
I documented this big snowstorm in February of 2003. The Metro DC area is not snow-free. We get at least one large storm every winter, and during the famous winter of "Snowmageddon" in 2010, we got three of them. You can see the pile of snow near my balcony railing, also collected on the railing. Also note the small drawing of a snow form on a bench. If undisturbed by wind or other force, the snow makes a neat prism shape. The web-like collection at center is a bunch of wire mesh rolls. I built them in the hope of deterring squirrels from destroying my plants. The barrier didn't work and the squirrels came right in underneath it.

In February of 2010 the DFW Metroplex got 11 to 15 inches of snow in one day. Completely unprecedented. It lasted over a week. Completely shut down the city. "The Year of the Big Snow."
