Weather

This will be the first big winter snowstorm this state as a whole has had since jan 2011. Its not even a bad bad storm, but people here are stoll shaken up over the assfucking we got from Sandy. You say major storm around here people gonna lose their shit.

I am expecting 24" it should make the top ten maybe top five in Boston. I have the snow blower set. Wife already gota call from work not to come in on Saturday, kids got the day off tomorrow.

Will be lucky to get an inch down here. Don't graze me, bro!

Most stations I'm looking at say ~11inches for me over the night. Psh, yeah right, I'm guessing we get maybe 3 or 4, just enough for people to drive 30 under the speed limit even though all the main roads are coated with a layer of fucking salt.

We've got a cold front coming through that'll drop us into the 50's for the next few days!

if the wind is strong enough & enough snow falls that is driftable. my driveway by my garage will be BARE GROUND...for about 10 feet. then there will be a Wall of snow depending on the amount of snow we get, the drift could be 5-6' high, or higher.

blizzard of 78 the snow drift in my back yard(parents house not where i live now) was over 8' in height- they got pictures of the shed all you can see is the top foot of the roof peak

Here they have been saying light snow this morning resulting in less than an inch of snow, changing to rain for the afternoon. We have 3 inches already, and still snowing.


Also, we are at stormcon 8!!!!!1 We gunna die.

Yeah it was 78 here today. Post some pics guys if you get some snow. Been 17 years since I've played in the white stuff.

I'll post some pictures when there is snow accumulation worth posting. It's still pansy snowfall at the moment, but my workplace let everyone out early so I can't complain ;P

Also, Mass is banning all cars from the roads after 4pm, with some exceptions (media, healthcare, utility, emergency, etc).

I know here during winter storms anyway, if they declare a state of emergency, technically only emergency vehicles are allowed on the roads. Most do stay off, and ones that don't, nothing ever happens.

Stop snowing on my driveway please.

yeah in jersey they warn people about bad weather, but they dont ban you. basically they say, you were warned. if you go out and get yourself killed its on you. dont expect us to rescue your dumb ass

In Ohio you can get a ticket for driving during emergency road conditions unless you are police/fire/emt/other safety related jobs. I think it's about 200 bucks. I've been pulled over once, but was let go when I showed my I.D. badge. It's actually not that bad driving in unplowed snow with snow tires and awd, better than when it's icy/semi-plowed slush imo. Usually my bigger concern is when the roads are unplowed and with blowing snow you can't actually see where the road is.

Even in Chicago the only road they ever close is Lake Shore Drive and that's only because 300 people got stranded on it a couple years ago during our huge snow storm

Behold the horror of Nemo. Upgraded to stormcon 9!

This storm is pretty lol worthy so far. We've been trolled.
