More than 6 inches of snow is possible in the Philadelphia (http://www.weather.com/weather/5day/l/USPA1276:1:US) metro area.The New York City (http://www.weather.com/weather/5day/l/USNY0996:1:US) area is forecast to see a foot or more of heavy snow. Near-blizzard conditions possible. Parts of eastern and southern New England, including Boston (http://www.weather.com/weather/5day/l/USMA0046:1:US), Providence, Rhode Island (http://www.weather.com/weather/5day/l/USRI0050:1:US) and Portland, Maine (http://www.weather.com/weather/5day/l/USME0328:1:US), have the potential to see up to 2 feet of snow. Locally more than 2 feet of snow is possible, particularly in eastern Massachussetts. The snow will be accompanied by blizzard or near-blizzard conditions.

Snowfall rates of more than 2 inches per hour are possible during the peak of the storm Monday night into Tuesday.

I just shoveled 4-5 inches. Around here we call that a normal winter day

[sachem]

Excuse me but, not really feeling the sympathy. It's 17 here and dropping.

[Peter1469]

I don't expect we will get much here, though I wish we would.

[PolWatch]

I was just watching the weather report...some areas are expecting 3' of snow....I can't imagine that!

[Dr. Who]

All we're getting is more polar air. It promises to be a rather cold week.

[Dr. Who]

I actually prefer it when it snows. It's warmer. When it's too cold you don't get snow.

[PolWatch]

I like 70 and sunny...I'm a wuss!

[del]

i don't have to; i can remember it :)

[sachem]

They are saying two to three feet of snow. That is a general estimate. I'm hoping for about six inches.

makes me feel cold just looking at your temp! Its in the upper 40's here and I think that's cold!

Happens here a couple of times a year over a 24-48 hour period. The trick is to shovel every time it gets to a foot or so . The bitch is the end of the driveway where they plow you in.
In still boggles my mind that northern cities got so large despite being virtually helpless in large snow storms.

[PolWatch]

One of my brother's lived in New Hampshire & Vermont for a few years. He told about having to get up at 4 am to shovel the snow from his garage to the street (which was plowed) before going to work. He said the area was beautiful & everyone was nice, but.....

[Common]

In 1947 there was a record breaking blizzard, my father was stuck in the city with his delivery truck, couldnt move he was stuck in manhattan. An ambulance was trying to push through the snow and got stone cold stopped and couldnt move, with someone in the back needing a hospital.

My father told me all the men that were stuck, surrounded the ambulance and acutally picked it up and moved it over to free it so it could move.

Keep in mind this was 68 yrs ago, they didnt have what they have today.

[Ravens Fan]

It's snowing steady here, but I don't expect more than a few inches. I wish I still had my jeep :sad:

just started here

i was sure when i bought a snowblower that we'd get no snow this year lol

[del]

my son: 'i'm getting my own apartment"

my wife: "yay!!!!!!!"

me: "hello, snowblowers r us?"

[PolWatch]

That sounds like my husband buying a riding lawn mower. Son (who had moved out) asked why didn't he get one earlier. Husband's response: "I didn't need one...I had you". :wink:

[Dark Mistress]

Waiting for a good blizzard. I did however about kill myself walking to the start t he car for church yesterday- A thin layer of ice over everything. I decided to take my heels off and trade them for flats. The kids and I had to hold on to each other to get to the car and get to the church.

I went for a run last week when it was 10. Felt great!

But still.... I am waiting for a good blizzard. Nothing like a good Montana blizzard while the wood stove is burning hot! Idaho winter disappoints me.

[PolWatch]

Not much experience with ice around here (thank goodness). We encountered our first ice storm while working a job in north Alabama. Husband was so proud he was able to drive from the job to the RV with no problems. He got out of truck & promptly hit the ground...we learned that gravel sometimes freezes into marbles...impossible to walk on!

[Common Sense]

Meh...it's just a couple feet. Try an ice storm. That'll fuck you in the ass.

[Common]

im at the computer store throwing in some hardware and peeking here. Im in shorts, short sleeved shirt and rockports with no socks, happy as a mofo im not in NY or jersey. :)

[Ravens Fan]

Meh...it's just a couple feet. Try an ice storm. That'll fuck you in the ass.

Or a couple of feet with a few inches of ice on top...

[Peter1469]

It is snowing here. I don't think that we will get much.

[Mister D]

Looks like I'll be home tomorrow. We're supposed to have blizzard conditions on my commute to work.

[del]

that's the same thing my dad said when he bought one after i moved out

[del]

i just cancelled second shift tonight

[PolWatch]

When I was out running errands this morning I saw several people in short pants & flip flops....a few of them had sweat shirts on....southern winter wear!

[CaveDog]

I'm away from the coast so they're saying just 12 to 18". Tough to be closer to the coast. Up to 24" with hurricane winds. Near as bad as '78. A foot or so isn't unusual, it's the wind that gets you. Bring down the power lines.

Agree I hate ice storms worse. Losing power for a week sucks.

Saw a guy today like that. It was 20 and windy.

Nobody does that.

No you did not.

[Redrose]

We're getting snow now. Upper elevations will see a foot or more, we may see 2-3 inches. The problem is we always get rain then a freeze right before the snow so it makes driving trecherous, especially on the mountain roads. Looks gorgeous though.

Family on Long Island are hoping their roof holds up.

[Cigar]

Funny how everyone loves govt when there's a major emergency like a massive snow storm

No one quotes Ayn Rand when a major blizzard is coming.

They demand that govt spring into action.

I'm waiting to hear from conservatives and Pat Robertson blame this as God's wrath for a Godless Lib Society.

LOL

You girls hold each other tight. You will be fine.

Well my point was, is that what we're witnessing is a phenomenon known as Bombogenesis ... which is kind of Biblical ... LOL

some meathead from the weather channel is standing on boston common

[PolWatch]

Hope everyone is warm & safe!

When its like this and it warms up to 20 suddenly, it feels like a heat wave. You leave your coat at home for a quick trip to the store

Really are the feds going to plow the roads?

We have learned from hurricane season: if ya look out your window & see Jim Cantore broadcasting live....it's gonna be a really bad day!
