After The Snowstorm..Annapolis MD in Photos

Martha Brown Annapolis and Anne Arundel County RE: Real Estate Agent in Annapolis, MD

On February 5, 2010 a history making snowstorm began. 36 hours and 20+ inches later the snow stopped and Annapolis was blanketed in white.

As evening came on, Rocky and I walked Riva Trace Parkway from one end to the other.

We walked past Spring Race Court - where the plow had not yet ventured.

We walk all the way to the interesction for Riva Road and Riva Trace Parkway.

Rocky and I stopped at Riva Road. There were very, very few cars on Riva Road.

After this, Rocky and I walked back the other way to go in for the night.

The next morning, the sky had cleared. It was cold - only about 19 degrees at 7:00 a.m. when the sun started to rise. Below is the entrance monument for Ginger Cove - Annapolis' ideal life-care retirement community.

Saints Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church looked radiant in the morning sun.

I thought this picture showed it all ... a great morning dawns ... there's plenty of snow ... I doubt we'll see the sidewalks until mid-March at this point!!!

Epic Snow Storm Clobbers Annapolis, Maryland and Surrounding Area

Stephen Howell,  Associate Broker, Annapolis, Maryland: Real Estate Agent in Annapolis, MD

As I sit here inside and warm, it's still a raging snow storm outside dumping epics amounts of snow on Annapolis, Maryland and the surrounding area. In the two photos below, you see that I setup a yard stick before the snow began to fall yesterday. When last measured (Saturday, February 6th at approximately 2:30 p.m.) the snow depth on the patio table exceeded 25 inches.

The yard stick is positioned in front of the covered umbrella. A close up photo is below.

This is the second storm to hit the area this winter and leave Annapolis, Maryland under a blanket of heavy snow. It reminds me more of New England than of the mid-Atlantic. While the last snow storm - before Christmas - set everyone back in their holiday shopping, this pre-Superbowl Sunday storm won't have quite the same effect. Maryland school kids are likely to be out of snow days before this is cleaned up and they can head back to school. For the adults - well - we'll see just what's open on Monday. Most business should be operational after having Sunday to clean out parking lots and clear walk-ways.

Rocky and Mason Play in the Snow

Rocky (left, above) and Mason (right, above) play in the snow. Once the driveway was shoveled out, they had room to run!!!

I really didn't realized the magnitude of this storm until I walked down to the Rotary, the "One Way" sign (above) barely visible in the blowing snow.

You really can't tell just how bad the roads are. Rocky has "four paw drive" so he didn't mind walking in the street. The sidewalks which run down either side of Riva Trace Parkway won't be seen until June of this year, they are under so much snow.

We walked all the way down the street to Riva Road past Summer Place, Riva Trace, Annapolis, Maryland 21401. I can't wait to look back on this photos when the temperature soars above 90 degrees and the humidity is almost the same. These will be cool pictures to reflect on!!!

After all the excitement, Rocky was one tired puppy.

In the meantime, while the storm wraps up, we'll just let sleeping dogs lie!!!

ANNAPOLIS MARYLAND REAL ESTATE MARKET REPORT. WHAT DID THAT HOUSE SELL FOR?

Lenn Harley, Real Estate Broker, Maryland & Virginia: Real Estate Brokerage in Rockville, MD

ANNAPOLIS MARYLAND REAL ESTATE MARKET REPORT. WHAT DID THAT HOUSE SELL FOR?

One of the most publicized real estate market monthly reports published by the National Association of Realtors® is the "PENDING SALES"report. Pendings are homes under contract projected to close within 60 days.

We at Homefinders.com prefer to look at FACTS. That means homes that have actually closed. We also want to consider the difference between the list price and the SOLD price. Also, how much, if any, seller's subsidy was paid??? The seller's subsidy is money credited to the home buyer at closing which can be used to defray the buyer's closing costs. In Anne Arundel County, MD, closing costs are approximately 4.%-5% of the purchase price.

The chart below includes all detached single family homes in Annapolis, Maryland that closed between December 1, 2009 and December 31, 2009.
