Auth. MSP the Snow Emergency Plan is in effect at 0200hrs
for Carroll County
The Maryland State Police put the Maryland snow emergency
plan in effect for Carroll County MD at 2 a.m.
The Maryland
Department of Transportation announced that the Maryland State Police put
the Maryland snow emergency plan in effect at 2 a.m. Saturday morning for
Carroll County.
Previously the snow emergency plan went into effect the
previous Friday evening for much of Western Maryland counties: at 11 p.m. for Allegany
County; 10:30 p.m. for Garrett County and 11:30 p.m. for Washington County.
According to the department of transportation, the state
police declare snow emergencies after receiving input from the Maryland State
Highway Administration.
Once the snow emergency has been declared, parking is
prohibited on streets and roads that are designated as snow emergency routes
and the snow tires, all weather tires and or chains are required for vehicles
traveling on the roadways.
When checked at 2:45 a.m., the National
Weather Service forecast for Westminster and Carroll County had a “winter
weather advisory posted.” “Snow before 4 am, then snow, freezing rain, and
sleet. Low around 26. East wind around 8 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%.
Total nighttime ice accumulation of less than a 0.1 of an inch possible. Total
nighttime snow and sleet accumulation of 1 to 3 inches possible.”
For Saturday night the weather service was forecasting
mostly cloudy skies. But most importantly for Ravens fans, the Sunday forecast
says, “A slight chance of rain, freezing rain, and sleet after noon. Increasing
clouds, with a high near 33. East wind around 6 mph. Chance of precipitation is
20%.” And later Sunday night, Rain likely, possibly mixed with freezing rain,
becoming all rain after 1am. Cloudy, with a low around 32. East wind between 3
and 6 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New precipitation amounts of less
than a tenth of an inch possible.”

Sykesville fire hall damaged by roof collapse, fire
February 11, 2010
Contact:
Vice President David Kreimer
Cell Phone #443-392-0823
Sykesville, MD (1:45 p.m.) – Weight from heavy snow collapsed the roof of the Sykesville Freedom District Fire Department’s social hall this morning. The collapse broke a gas line, sparking a blaze that destroyed that wing of the building. No fire apparatus was damaged, and no one was injured. Sleeping quarters, administrative offices, and the bingo hall were affected by the collapse and fire. Damage totals are not yet available.
Crews from four counties – Carroll, Baltimore, Howard and Frederick –are still on the scene to assist. Responding to the three-alarm blaze were approximately 200 firefighters and more than 50 pieces of equipment from approximately two dozen companies. The roof collapse was reported at 7:57 a.m. BGE crews were able to shut down the gas line around noon.
Sykesville-Freedom Co. 12 will continue to operate from the station. In fact, service in the Sykesville/Eldersburg area was not interrupted during the incident. Temporary housing will be established for the volunteers. Donations of cash or checks to help the company rebuild can be sent to Sykesville Freedom District Fire Department Inc., P.O. Box 275, Sykesville, MD 21784. Because of limited storage capacity, please do not donate supplies unless requested.

Maryland State Police: Disabled vehicles challenge troopers during storm
Maryland State Police: Disabled vehicles challenge troopers during storm
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 8, 2010
DISABLED VEHICLES BIGGEST CHALLENGE FOR TROOPERS DURING STORM
http://www.mdsp.org/Media/press_release_details.asp?identifier=898
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 8, 2010
DISABLED VEHICLES BIGGEST CHALLENGE FOR TROOPERS DURING STORM
http://www.mdsp.org/Media/press_release_details.asp?identifier=898
(Pikesville, MD) – Maryland state troopers answered thousands of calls for service during the weekend storm, but most of those calls involved disabled or unattended vehicles caught in the snow.
From noon Friday, February 5th, through 11:00 p.m. yesterday, February 7th, troopers across Maryland responded to more than 2,900 calls for service.
Of those, more than 1,300 involved vehicles that had become disabled or were found unattended along an interstate or state highway.
Troopers at the Frederick Barracks dealt with 140 disabled/unattended vehicles, the most of all 22 barracks. They were followed by Waterloo Barracks in Howard County (131), Glen Burnie Barracks in Anne Arundel County (130), and Golden Ring Barracks in Baltimore County where troopers handled 112 disabled or unattended vehicles.
Troopers responded to 389 traffic crashes. Most of those crashes (232) involved minor property damage and no personal injury. Troopers handled 157 crashes that involved either personal injury and/or damage significant enough to require the vehicle to be towed. Troopers at the Forestville and College Park barracks in Prince George’s County handled a combined 56 crashes, while troopers at the Rockville Barracks in Montgomery County handled 55 crashes.
Troopers made 685 requests for tow trucks during the period. More than 100 requests were made by troopers from the Glen Burnie Barracks, who patrol Anne Arundel County.
Colonel Terrence B. Sheridan, Superintendent of the Maryland State Police is today reminding motorists that travel is still hazardous in many locations around the state. While most of the interstates are incredibly clear, there are still areas of some that are snow and ice covered, which can create a serious hazard for the unsuspecting driver. Travel is even less predictable on secondary roads.
Vehicles that are still abandoned on state roads and interstates continued to be towed and stored by Maryland State Police in order to facilitate snow removal by the State Highway Administration. No parking is permitted on state roads or interstates when the snow emergency plans are in effect. The most vehicles stored by troopers were in Prince George’s County, where 33 vehicles were towed away and in Montgomery County, where troopers stored 28 automobiles.
Drivers whose vehicles were towed from state routes by State Police should contact the barracks nearest to where the vehicle was left. A list of barracks and locations is available at www.mdsp.org.
For vehicles towed in Prince George’s County, owners can call the Forestville Barracks at 301-568-8101, or the College Park Barracks at 301-345-3101. Owners of vehicles towed by State Police in Montgomery County should call the Rockville Barracks at 301-424-2101.
Additional troopers remain on patrol as cleanup from the weekend snow continues and preparations are made for the predicted mid-week storm. Troopers assigned to the Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division, Automotive Safety Enforcement Division, and the Special Operations Division, have been reassigned to road patrol duties to supplement the regular patrol force across Maryland.

Carroll County MD government: Major winter storm
Latest storm to bring heavy snow, high winds http://tinyurl.com/ylsc7wk
February 9, 2010, 3:10 p.m. – Carroll County’s Emergency Operations Center will activate today at 3 p.m. to coordinate response efforts during the latest winter storm. While not expected to produce quite as much snow as the most recent blizzard, the latest storm will bring stronger winds, increasing the chance of power outages.
A major concern for emergency managers is the weight of another foot of snow on top of earlier accumulation. Carroll County’s building code requires all structures to be able to manage 35 pounds per square foot on low-sloped (flat) roofs, and 30 pounds per square foot on pitched roofs.
Even with some melting on Monday, existing loads on most roofs in the region are estimated at 11 to 14 pounds per square foot. Indications that structural damage has occurred include ceilings that have cracked or dropped; problems with doors and windows not operating properly; new roof leaks; and unusual sounds. Do not go out onto a roof to investigate.
Because power outages are expected, people should be prepared to get by at least 72 hours without power. An emergency kit should include
Water – a gallon per person per day. Have more on hand if you have pets. Households with wells should also store additional water in case power is lost to their pumps.
Flashlight with batteries. High winds increase the likelihood for power outages.
Battery-operated radio. Monitor local media for updated weather conditions and emergency announcements.
Food – Keep enough non-perishable food on hand to last three days. Make sure you have a manual can opener.
Medications – Fill any prescriptions now that you may need through Monday.
A complete list of recommended emergency supplies can be found at www.ReadySetGood.org. A non-emergency information line will be staffed throughout the storm. Carroll County residents can call 1-888-543-8362. Updates will also be posted periodically on Twitter by @CarrollCoMD.
