Is 'Blizzard Nemo' the next hurricane Irene? It?s been a long time since New York had a really big winter storm, but one is on the way.

I'm way up here in Maine and it just started snowing pretty hard. It's times like this I'm glad I work from home and don't have to drive!

Routine winter day up here in Canadia ;)

Should be interesting. Hudson County is going to be a nightmare place.

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

how much snow is being expected?

I'd dread to think how the UK would deal with that much snow forecast.

We grind to a halt with 1cm of snow. Every damn year...

Close to 2 feet

:xmas-smil22 :smilie_we :1orglaugh

They're predicting up to three feet now in some places. Ugh. I can't wait to move back out west.

:(

We are at about 12 inches now in Ontario, and its still falling. And wouldn't you know it, batteries on the tractor are flat. Looks like delayed snow blowing for me.

I'm sure for some areas it'll be a lot more than normal, but hell we've already had snow as high as car door handles this season. Stay safe.

Shawing!

By really long do you mean like 2 years ago when therr was 30 inches the day after xmas?

Just a lot of rain over here on long island so far

Still raining...

cleared about a foot already, another 4 inches to do again :disgust

Hailing in Brooklyn

I'm in MA and it's been snowing for a few hours now and my power is still on. This is a good sign, because every major storm we have had since I moved up here my power has gone out with in 2 hours.

I've made it past the 2 hour point, so I hereby declare this storm just a summer breeze and nothing but a big media hype job..

Its officially snowing like a mother fucker here in NYC.

we are getting blasted good now and it hasnt even reached its peak

fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Started in Waterville Maine about 8 pm and we have about 3 inches so far. Forcast is for 12 more hours at 1-3 inches an hour. Could be fun driving tomorrow ???

I haven't seen snow in about twenty years. I'm good with that.

You're in Waterville? I'm sorry.

:winkwink:

I'm up here in Bangor and it started snowing around 8:00 pm as well. I kind of expected it to be snowing a bit harder than it is, honestly. I'm sure it'll pick up within the next few hours.

Fuck there is a lot of snow out side.

Just got in a short time ago from snow-blowing the driveway for the third time so far. Two tanks of gas in the blower.

But at least the snow has stopped here in Niagara. But another system's on the way early next week I hear.

Damn glad I sank $1700 on a blower a few years back. Worth its weight in gold lately.

People walk along the Brooklyn Bridge following a major winter storm in New York City.

More than 5,000 flights were cancelled since Friday, and at its height, the storm shut down all rail traffic from Philadelphia to Boston. A potentially record-breaking snow storm has brought the US northeast to a grinding halt and left nine dead. :(
