Hey you guys start your home made soup yet??
A blizzard is a great time to do it. Keeps the kitchen warm and humid, and it's ready to eat all day long.

Observation

Outside it is snowing
And really blowing
Scotch been flowing
To bed I am going

Next update at daybreak

 

[tpenfield]

Blizzard is here and I have run out of beer . . .

 

[tpenfield]

As of 5:15 AM EST . . . a view to my back deck . . . I figure that there is about 18 inches of snow so far, with the intense portion of the storm coming over the next few hours. Snow blower, be ready.

Crazy weather this winter for sure, You guys are getting all that carp down there and up here in the Great White North all the snow is gone and we are in the double digits + c, really makes you wonder what's happening to the weather. Good Luck and stay safe.

 

[tpenfield]

Yup, weather 'patterns' are sure interesting . . .

As of 6:30 AM EST we are at about 24 inches of snow . . . so we have picked up about 6 inches in the last 75 minutes.

 

[angus63]

No Title

Roughly 18" -20" now. 3 steps high on the leeward side of the house. Forecast for 4-6 more. Alot lighter to the west.

 

[dingbat]

Historic blizzard...6" of snow shuts down NYC. 24-7 weather sensationalism at its best.

 

[angus63]

No Title

About 3 ft drifts on the windward side. Only 6-12" western LI and NYC.

 

[tpenfield]

NYC did not look too bad from the pictures on the weather channel. I just did a measurement of the snow on my deck and it appears to be about 28 inches as of 8:20 AM EST.

Governor opened all counties and services at 8am. News is blabbing about this being an overreaction after not preparing for the snow event in Buffalo last month that left people stranded in their vehicles for days. Waiting for the village plow to come by so I don't dig out twice. Looks like snow will end for me around 3pm. Hoping to finish clearing by dark. Islip airport near me reporting 22" now. When it's finally over may be close to the record for us (26.3").

News is blabbing about this being an overreaction ...

While government types do plenty that's worthy of being blabbed about, this was bound to be one of those darned if ya' do, darned if ya' don't situations for 'em.

Sounds like ya' got a good pile, but nothing devastating. Glad it wasn't worse. Hope it shovels easy for you.

Yup, eye passed 50 miles east of predicted yesterday and that was a difference of 20" accumulation. My back hurts just looking out the window at it.
