Major storm expected for New England Dec 24-26.

warm rain down here, we are the Fla. of New England. keep your splits dry after storm exits winter is supposed to show up for real. the storm has already been named "Santa Bomb" European model shows a 962mb low over Lake Huron on Christmas Day. another low at 976mb over New England. might be 60*+ in Eastern New England. easy to see the cold after those two

 

At the moment they're calling for rain with wind gusts between 47-50 miles per hour for this area, I hope you don't get a blizzard.

Glad I'm stayin' home.

I hope it is nothing, but I've learned to pay attention when the folks that get paid for accuracy start talking about things.

Being forewarned comes in handy at times and whatever I do to prepare will not go to waste as there is always next summer to use up any extra gasoline in the mower and tiller.

 

I'm still trying .

 

Same here from all sources. Nothing about snow.

 

I haven't run out of TP either but I still check the supply.

 

I wouldn't want to either but I have stepped on a friends hand while wearing crampons. He fell into me while we were walking down a steep gully from an ice climb. 30 years later I can still see my crampon going into his glove as I was trying to get my balance back. Fortunately I only scored with one point. But it was an emergency room trip.

 

Thanks for the heads up. Got both snow blowers prepped a couple weekends ago but have to get wood to the house if this starts looking like its gonna happen.

 

Santa can handle it

Local here:
"A chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 29."
pretty safe forecast

At least no typhoon with impending doom, yet

Me ;
just hoping the little snow we have don't melt by then

 

if you live in the Cleveland,Oh. area GET OUT NOW?!? shades of 1978 may be on the way for you. buy every loaf of bread and gallon of milk you can find and do it today to avoid lines. HAVE A DAY here is wsi's (a weather channel product) take via twitterhttp://www.wsi.com/blog/energy/next-weeks-superstorm-shades-of-78/ bottom line comment is interesting. have your splits and pellets ready.

 

And the Great New England Bizzard of 1978 was also known as the Cleveland Superbomb of 1978 .

My source wasn't wsi or any media company connected group (aka the calamity hypers).

I just want to know where the rain snow line is going to be or in the alternative which way the seagulls are farting.

Weather is strange up here.

I'm in one snow zone from the coast and very close to the next snow zone.

The last bunches of crud have been nothing but a mixed mess. I can deal with rain and wind, even snow and wind, I don't do so well with the mixed bag and wind.

 

two different storms, Cle. was 26 jan our's as you know 6-8 feb. the 26th storm down here rained like hell and melted a foot or so that was already on the ground(good thing). bliz 78 almost 3.5ft here.

 

Yup, you are correct the first of the two major 1978 storms dumped all kinds of crap (1 to 3' of crap) over a very large area along with 100+ MPH winds (two storm systems combined for this one along with two jet streams), the second pummeled primarily New England a few days later.

I'll have to correct some folks who seem to have one connected to the other for some reason.

 

Don't sweat it, we are getting nothing but rain.

 

Seems so Mach. Then again I'm on the north shore of LI
