  2. Okay FIRST OF ALL Sir, it's "Patapsco" theres no A after the second P. Sorry that bugged me. Onto the point. I remember Dundalk getting hit pretty hard by hurricane Isabel but we were only without power for a day or two?

  3. i dont have too many memories of the ones i went through but i have small memories of some of them like my school i got to now had collapsed during the 2010 blizzard

  4. I've been living in Maryland since 2009. I've seen things I've never seen before. Watching this brings some memories. From the snow storm in 2010, the earthquake in 2011, Hurricane sandy in 2012 and other natural disasters in Maryland

  5. We lived through 6 of them. But "Snowmageddon" of 2010 was the best for us. We used our truck with 4 wheel drive to take hospital workers too and from thier shifts. My wife and I drove in 12 hour shifts over the span of almost 3 days. When our passengers would ask us why we were doing this we always said "Because people needed help". Proud to live in "The Free State".

  6. My parents friend was hit by the laplata tornado and they had a mirror in their house that wasnt shattered and they still have it to this day

  7. I remember Isabel, a big tree fell on my neighbor’s power lines outside their house. If it fell the other direction, they would probably be dead. The wind was shaking our old storm windows all night. We’re a little overdue for another hurricane in the nova area…

  8. My family and I were hit head on by the Derecho in Germantown Maryland while out driving near Black hills park. My ex wife and young daughters were screaming bloody murder while huge trees dropped all around our car. We were 20 minutes away from home but with trees blocking roads all over it took me over an hour to get us home. It was a real mess. Black hills lake had white capped wind driven waves over 4 feet tall. The only time I have seen white caps on a lake.

  9. The worst was hurricane Agnes in 1972. The eye of the hurricane came right up the Chesapeake bay. I was 7 years old and went swimming in my grandmother's front yard. The water was 5 feet deep.

  10. I have lived through most of them too . I especially remember the bay freezing over when I was a kid and we ice skate it across the bay for months. The La Plata tornado I had customers finding mail in their yards on Greenspring Avenue. Thank you for posting.

  11. I have lived in MD since ‘84. I was on KI in Bay City for Isabell and the Tornado. The tornado and derecho we’re definitely the scariest moments of my life.

  12. I remember the earthquake… i was watching Spongebob in the living room and my dog peaked her head over the sofa before howling, then it hit and i thought it was a moving truck 😂

  13. Lived in MD for the last 16 yrs. Lived through snowmageddon (best college week of my career), was supposed to go to Ellicott city on the night it flooded (only lived 15 mins from main st), earthquake, and visited the state after hurricane Isabel; that summer I witnessed a tree falling after it had been damaged during the storm. Have you ever heard a tree break? It was terrifying!

  14. Business Opportunity in Ruvol

    I have invented a Board Game [still unpublished and not yet out in the market] that I believe is guaranteed to be as challenging and exciting as CHESS. I called it “RUVOL.”

    It is my hope that one day Ruvol may surpass chess as the “Number One Board Game in the World.”

    The weakness of chess is it always starts in fixed positions that the opening moves become “memorizable.” In fact, not a few have so mastered the moves that they can play against their opponents “blindfolded.” It is for this very reason that the great Bobby Fischer introduced his so-called “Fischer Random Chess,” where the starting position of the pieces is “randomized” to make the memorization of openings impracticable. Fortunately, it is also for this reason that I invented Ruvol where “every game” has been calculated to be a challenging one to play.

    HOW IS RUVOL PLAYED and HOW YOU CAN MONETIZE IT?

    I detailed everything in my YouTube video. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcqth0m3-R0

    BIG MONEY POTENTIAL IN RUVOL!

    It is worthwhile to note that the people who play chess will be the same people who will play Ruvol. In my Google search, I learned there are around 800 million chess players in the world. Even just a small percentage of these 800 million is good enough to earn big money from Ruvol either as an ONLINE GAME BUSINESS or as a PHYSICAL PRODUCT DISTRIBUTOR.

    Thanks and God bless!

  15. The snow blizzard of 1966, I was 10. Some snow drifts were 5 feet tall. No school for amost 2 weeks! We went sledding everyday, we built snow forts for our neighorhood snowball battles 🙂 No video games or vegging out in front of a screen. Wonderful memories.

  16. Hurricaine agnes. One whole town Woodwordville flooded when flood gates had to be opened. Evacuations done before they opened them. My uncle was smart enough to have his home on a large hill, but my friends home completed flooded.

  17. Ellicott City was my and my dad's favorite place to go to before the flood and we haven't been since, I was really sad when I heard what had happened to it. I lived in up Maryland in Calvert for about 4 years and we only had 2 tornado warnings but no tornado touched ground which is amazing!
