People are going crazy up here. It's like they are expected to be snowed in for weeks.

psh, snow is awesome. I wish we had more here. XC skiing, downhill skiing, snow biking, sledding, natural beauty, generally warm temperatures...what's not to like about a good snowstorm?

The wife actually wanted to go up to NH for the storm.
Forget that I'm happy with my predicted 2 inches.
The rest of you NE guys stay safe. Hopefully you have a generator and gas this is gonna get ugly.

Yeah that's true, the driving stinks. I guess I don't really think about that too much because I take two wheels everywhere and haven't gotten behind the wheel of a car in about 4 months. Are they cancelling a lot of stuff in the northeast? I hope not too many people have to be out in the roads. That can ruin a perfectly good snow day.

Well, I guess it's better that you predicted getting 2" than your wife predicting getting 2". Kidding. Looking at 2' here in Portland. It's not the snow I'm concerned w as much as the 60 mph winds. Power will be lost, no question about that. I remember the Blizzard of '78, that was nasty.

Wow, didn't think about the winds, good luck. I got a generator for sale, lets make a deal.

That's nuts. It was 76° and sunny down here in Texas. Wonder what Iowa is supposed to get.

I have a business trip for Maine and Vermont that I have to fly out for on Sunday.


This is all my fault...

It is awesome outside right now. Granted, the power is still on so I'm not miserable yet.

I'll get some pics tomorrow. It's been snowing since 6:00 this morning and we apparently haven't seen the heavy stuff yet. Midnight until sometime tomorrow afternoon should be interesting.

The weird thing is that there aren't really snow "flakes," its just crazy windy and blowing frozen precipitation everywhere.

Driving in the snow is just about the worst thing ever.

Last winter I saw a ****ing semi-truck, trailer and all, go sliding uncontrollably. Was quite a sight.
