Mid Atlantic Blizzard

[Protocol]

Looks like we're getting hit with the heaviest snow we've had in decades. Stay safe out there my Badger Buddies.

Beautiful here in South Jersey. We are expecting up to 24" of the stuff.

Why couldn't this happen during the work week? The wife is making chili and tortilla soup today and I have enough beer, bourbon and wine to last several days.

 

[SalvadorMontenegro]

I have family and friends in Falls Church, VA. From what I've heard, it's pretty crazy.

It's supposed to snow some in NYC, but not as much as they're having. I'm not sure I want two feet, anyway...

 

[Straight Arrow]

...and I have enough beer, bourbon and wine to last several days.

I always thought it was milk and bread.

I'm mildly jealous.

We lived in Bel Air, Maryland for 11 years and never got a Christmas quite that white. We'll be luck to have 1/2" this year here.

Past 8 inches here and coming down hard. Already been out shoveling twice and just about to go out again.

 

[airplanedoc]

Around here beer, bourbon and wine sell as fast as the bread and milk, in some cases faster when there is a storm comming

 

[JonDC]

There's at least a foot of snow on the ground here in DC, and it's still coming down furiously.

 

[beginish]

We have about 3-4 inches so far here in Philly. I had to run out earlier for the weekly grocery run, and the roads were a lot more slick on the way back.

 

[WhosYerBob]

We now have over 14 inches in our front yard. Here's a shot from our back door and we're supposed to get 6 to 8 more inches...

Nothing here yet in CT but it's coming!!!!!

 

[slamjet]

Snow? Is it that white stuff the city sprays on the mountians behind me to make it look Christmassy?

I guess you guys down there are really going to get it from this storm. I can relate, because these things usually go right up the coast, turn into a real Northeaster and bury us here in upper New England.

The only good thing about this one is that its going to track East and head out to sea. Long Island, Boston, and the Cape are supposed to bear the brunt of this one.

I live right on the New York line in the Berkshires, and the most predicted from this storm is a dusting to an inch here. Good luck down there. We usually get dumped on when these things move up to our area.

After a luxurious shave with TOBS Mr. Taylor, followed by a dash of L'Occitane Vetiver, I enjoyed a relaxed early afternoon breakfast. 'Twas then I realized that the snow on the deck railings was just the second seating; there were about 20 inches on the ground.

I had to wrestle with the snow thrower for a while, but once it got going I learned that the snow was higher than the machine's opening. (For you Californians, that's not a good thing.)

Now it's a few hours later (I've skipped the boring part), and I'm savoring a fairly large quantity of The Balvenie Double Wood while listening to the recently issued Mosaic set of Artie Shaw classics.

Life is good.

Here in northern VA, we are slammed shut. Easily a foot and a half of snow on the ground.

+1. Been fun to watch today from inside the house in MD, but not fun to think about shoveling tomorrow! My prayers that everyone in the storm's path stays well.

 

[Cuttingboard]

16" and still going strong...suppose to snow another couple hours.

The wife made Mexican chili that includes bacon and Molle sauce. It was incredible...can't wait to have more tomorrow.

 

[Protocol]

Here in Columbia, MD we have at least 18 inches. I've been digging pretty much all day so I'm pretty sure that the deal tomorrow morning won't be too ugly. The cars look like old Messerschmitts behind the U shaped wall of snow.

Nothing yet in Boston.
