First Major Snowstorm Of 2024: Photos Wanted From Bethesda
BETHESDA, MD — Tuesday was supposed to be the day when everyone returned to work or school following the Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday, but Mother Nature had a different plan for Bethesda residents.
A winter storm warning was in effect to 10 a.m. on Tuesday for most of Maryland, Virginia and Washington, D.C., according to the National Weather Service.
As a result, not only were Montgomery County Public Schools closed, all federal offices in the Washington, D.C. area were closed, according to the Office of Personnel Management.
If you are stuck at home due to the snowstorm, Patch is calling for photo submissions showing how the first big snowstorm of the 2023-2024 season is shaping up in your neighborhood. Photos may be emailed to mark.hand [at] patch.com.
Send only photos you have taken. By submitting a photo, you give Patch consent to use it in its Winter Storm Photo Gallery.
Please include the town the photo was taken in so that your photos will appear in your local Patch. Submission cut-off: Tuesday, Jan. 16 at 4 p.m.
WBFF — A Powerball ticket sold in Lanham has made one lucky player $1 million richer following Wednesday night’s drawing.
The ticket, which matched all five white balls but missed the red Powerball, is one of three significant wins in Maryland from the Dec. 10 drawing. The other two winning tickets include a $150,000 prize in Hughesville and a $50,000 prize in Bel Air.
The $1 million ticket was purchased at the 7-Eleven located at 7730 Finns Lane in Lanham, Prince George’s County.
Meanwhile, the $150,000 ticket, which included the Power Play option, was sold at the Jameson-Harrison American Legion Post 238 in Hughesville, Charles County.
The $50,000 ticket was bought at Klein’s Shoprite on North Main Street in Bel Air, Harford County.
None of these winning tickets have been claimed yet, and the Maryland Lottery is urging winners to sign their tickets and store them safely. Prizes over $25,000 must be claimed by appointment at Lottery headquarters within 182 days of the drawing date.
The Powerball jackpot, which has not been won since Sept. 6, has now rolled over to an estimated annuity value of $1 billion, with a cash option of $461.3 million for the next drawing on Saturday night. This marks the seventh-largest jackpot since Powerball began in 1992.
