Default Snow!!!

There is a monster storm blanketing the north east. In Pittsburgh, we're supposed to get 3-6" today, 3-6" more tonight, and 2-4" tomorrow. Parts of DC and MD already have over a foot. Phili is expected to get between 1 and 2 feet.

Basically, from DC to NYC, expect at least a foot of snow It looks like Jack Frost isn't ready for spring yet...

We got missed by it. The weather forecasters were saying Friday we were supposed to get dumped on, and with the winds it was gonna be bad. We ended up only getting maximum 2 inches. Not bad at all. Downstate Illinois got pounded though, they got about a foot. heehee Jack frost decided to give us a break.

I'm west of you old guy and we have 13" at 11pm. Supposed to get another 3 tonight and 2 tomorrow. It's been snowing for 24 hours straight and isn't stopping for another 24 hours. Even though it's alot of snow, it's not a record.

Our record for a 24 hr snowfall is 23.5"!! It was the great storm of March 1993. Gov. Rendell has declared a state of emergency for the entire state. Winter, JOY

Yeap we still have just and inch. heehee Sowry, but usually we get all this crap.

Seriously though, I had spoken with a friend of mine in Brooklyn, and he said it was reallly bad out there. Saying that you're not supposed to go out on the roads tomorrow unless it's an emergency. Stay safe you guys!

I haven't been out yet this morning, but last night we had almost a foot in Columbus, OH. Plus it was sweet when I tried to move my van last night around 2:00 am after I shoveled the driveway, it was in the street and I wanted to make sure it was off the road when they plowed it. I ended up getting stuck trying to turn around, it was wherre the road dips down a little by the curb. It justs kept getting more sideways and took me 5-10 minutes to get out (which was sweet being it has duece 40 series flowmasters), I saw a few neighbors looking around as I was going inside. Now that I'm thinking of it, anyone know who sells a decently priced universal x-pipe?

My back is so sore. I've shoveled the driveway at least three times.

I just made it into work. Total snowfall here in C-Bus is at least 12" maybe closer to 15". I got several digital pics this morning, I'll post them later.

Yeah, Chris, someone unleashed one hell of a can of that spray snow stuff. It's nuts how much snow we've gotten.

Pics to come...

Default How wrong is this?

Our roads are nice and clear. Trees are starting to bud again. I can also see grass where all the snow melted. I don't know about ya'll but doesn't that just seem wrong? (6 months of winter thing and all) Can ya'll send some snow up here? I kind of miss it.

Hey Chris, I'm confused about all this talk of snow also. Last time I saw snow, well, I dont remember the last time I saw snow. Oh thats right, it was on the news with all you poor unfortunate people up north. Of course, being where I am, I better watch my mouth or I'll be driving the boat to work with as much as it rains here.
