On Montgomery College campus, someone was hacking away at a snow mountain in the street. He (I presume the person was male) was using a small, orange machine with blades that ground up the frozen snow. Alas, it seemed to just toss it onto the sidewalk. Maybe they were going to plow the blown-out snow, placing it on the median? I didn't stick around to find out. But the machine looked pretty nifty. Wish I had a camera on me mid-day today.

Cars and buses have to swing out into oncoming traffic to get around it. Bus drivers can see over the snow but vehicular drivers cannot so it's just a matter of time before there is a serious accident there.
