yall' on the East coast gittn' ready?

All the hype and we have about 3" so far; 2" overnight and 1" throughout the course of the day today.


.

 

Not even snowing here yet....But be careful out there it will be nasty...Hunker down and drink BEER....Or Allens.....

 

Just did some hunkering down outside with an appropriately named "Abominable Snowbeer". About 1.5" of fluff on the groun so far. A little bit breezy but otherwise real pleasant. Got the gas grill lit and will be putting on some pork tenderloins soon.

 

So far so good...It's supposed to start getting dicey after 7.

 

I think you might have a little more time than that. It isn't doing a thing here right now.

 

I am only worried about 4 giant pine trees behind my trailer, 20 feet...If we get the wicked high winds like they say....

 

I'm concerend about one tree behind the back of the house too. We'll see what the winds decide to do later tonight into tomorrow. More concerned for the neighbors house than mine.

 

We have about 2" of new snow since about 4:30. Winds are gusting to 14 on my weather station.
Still early like you said

 

I gave up listening the weather reports for now. It seems too difficult to predict accumulation with the snow bands that will be swinging in from the ocean. They did say between 2" - 4" per hour at the peak. Wind gust 50 to 60 mph is the latest reports. The snow totals are being predicted between 24" -36" but the areas keep shifting. The stove will be earning its' keep the next 24 hours. It is good to have a back up plan, as I know a lot of people that do not.

A good Nor' Eastah this will be. We are ready here.

 

So at least you won't get crushed...I will if I am in the wrong spot, not to mention that I will Probably have a heart attach if a tree hits the place...

 

Exactly! I walked to the mister donut to get the family some breakfast. I don't think mister donut even exists anymore.

 

Yup we got nothing like they said.

 

They give the storm a name, make predictions and the media blitz puts the wheels in moton.
It could be a dud and they may find an answer for it but in all that they WILL get their ratings

 

Al Roker gave a name for the storm or the formation or IDK .. Seems like he called it Bimbo Genny or Bozo the clown or BomboGenesis !!! Yeah that's it.
Im in the 3-5 zone here in the belt,,,,,,,, prolly break out the popcorn and beer 'round midnite and check in with Al. If Reagan Medgie is on there freakin' out like she was in Buffalo back in November, I'm gonna drive to NYC and make a yellow snow angel out of her azz !!!

 

Trust me It Will handle it

 

If I can stay awake after working 16 hrs I'll do the same

 

Oh yeah, I remember ole MIster D ! Lol ,My father use to take us there every weekend for hot cocoa in those days. Brought back a memory for me with that one bro. Stay safe .

 

Somebody asked me today if i was ready for the big snowstorm. "Yep, been ready since september." They didnt know what to say. Kinda rolled eyes and "uhh, okay..."
