Oh man, I feel sorry for you guys! It's rain for us, 50's over the weekend.

I'm hoping for an early Spring!

[Terry]

all ready for it here, plenty of gas in stock for snowblower and generator if needed. 2 vans and 1 car in garage and other car can suck it up

Had a commercial job in boston on saturday but brought it forward to last night so we're done till monday.

Fred and I are in the potential 2 to 3 foot area and greg is near the ocean so he may not get as much but could have hurricane force wind to go with the snow.

So lets bring it on


I have a 5 and 3 year old who are really excited about all this snow

Same here as terry, done til Monday. Saw the storm coming days ago and just did not book fri-sun. You can never have enough food stored up.

8 inches over night , just got done snow blowing us and the neighbor out.

 

[FB7777]

Got my vans and my wife's mini van tucked into the garage and my Jeep at the end of the driveway.

Snowblower filled , extra fuel for heaters and generator.

Should have been smart like Terry and moved my Saturday work up, instead I have to go out on Sunday.

I hope Crowley has an extra tarp for his treehouse

Pictures Please

3 little kids and one big one prepped and excited to go out the morning.
Really lucky so far, only about 5-6 inches...starting to really pick up now, might end up with a foot, maybe a few inches depending on the banding. More than enough to have some fun.
We seem to be on the western edge of the big numbers. Everything east of NYC getting absolutely hammered. They are talking 5-6 inch per hour bands radiating from this storm with 60+ mph winds.
Those are ridiculous numbers.
BAston looks fooked.

Just saw some pics from Al Sim's facebook. He had snow up to his waist, and all the roads are closed. Gonna get warmer there in the next few days and all the snow is going to melt, and will probably bring in a lot of flooding in those areas.

 

[Vinnie]

Got about 6 to 8 ins. here in Toms River New Jersey, But I don't care I live in one of Gods waiting rooms they do all the shoveling for you.

 

[Bill Morgan]

Hard to tell exactly how much we got because of all the drifting due to extremely high winds. Somewhere around 26-28 inches +/- around Sebago Lake. Portland about 25 miles South as the crow flies got over 30 and set a new snowfall record. Everything closed up Friday early afternoon and just about everything is still closed except for a few gas stations/convenience stores serving coffee/food for plow truck drivers, police, etc.

Sadly there was a house fire and the place burned to the ground because the fire department couldn't get down the street.

Fortunately we haven't lost power. Picked up some Red Box movies and munchies and have been making snow forts with my two sons 7 and 9. It's been a lot of fun actually!

Temperature is dropping now into the single digits and winds are starting to kick up again. Threw a log on the wood stove, kicking back and watching the Walking Dead marathon.. probably thaw out around midnight..

What a great story Bill ! Even Makes us Southern Boys smile
My Wife would absolutely love to visit Maine, hopefully I am able to fullfill this Dream of hers one day.
Thought about a Coastal Storm Vacation actually. They say it's the Bomb!!

Keep em Warm an Dry SnowBird!

[Bill Morgan]

C'mon up any time Chris... We can go out for a couple Maine Micro-brews, Steamers, fried clams, scallops and a Lobster roll that will knock your socks off!!!!
Bring a fly rod if you fish too. Friend of mine knows a place where you can't miss getting a nice sized brook trout that will put of a fight like a Marlin..

It's storms like this my wife says she want's to move South where it's warmer.. grass is always greener, right?!

Be safe, y'all.
Bill

 

[GCCLee]

Much appriciated good sir!
Sounds like her story buddy.
Tell the wife we have been known to get hammered here as well, a lil further south isn't too bad.
Weather patterns HAVE changed.

Keep em dry
Chris
