More broke antennas, overheated radios, waterlogged wiring, etc....KAAAACHING...and more $$$ for fishin this year :D

Unfortunately, I'm one of the few who are at work today...:(

10 wheeler is warmin' up as I type............come on spring!

If you want to know what the weather will be today, check with the weather guru's tomorrow.......................................... ...seventy-five percent of them will be right.

Enjoy.

Glad I didn't go tuna fishing this weekend. :laughs:

Took one look outside...a foot or so on the ground, and went back to bed. :smash:

I heard parts of NJ got socked with 20 INCHES so far!

-WW

Foot plus here - still looks like we won't have a big snow since that April Foools day snow a few years ago.

And the guys in Baltimore are getting burried. I lived down there, they CAN'T handle it - don't know what to do :D

I'm outa here!

me 2..........:( :( :( :af:

Maybe they will tell us to go home early !!!


NOT !!!!!!!!!!!!!:smash:

Foot plus here Oh - I meant they expect at least a foot here :D

OOOOOO workin at home has MANY benefits, wicked looooong commute :D

And if I get tired of fixin radios I just go turn some plugs for a while :D

We're here peering out the windows wondering what the weather will bring. Probably end up canceling second and swing shifts.........

Hopefully by the time I leave all the :smash: will be home already.

Was going to dry rods today but think I'll wait till it’s over. Kind of lousy when power goes out and you have to spin them by hand.

Ill be in work all day , this place never shuts down .

I'm here at work too. This place will never close. Oh well, not a lot to do, I guess I'll have to leave SB.com up all day!

chris L,
Same thing here, I don't think we would shutdown if it were 3' of snow never mind 1'. It's that corporate greed.....

Don't underestimate this storm guys---here on eastern LI we've already got about 14" on the ground and it's still snowing like a mother.

I remember a weather forecast in February 1978 that called for 8-12 inches ;)

Yep, I remember that well:smash:

I hate snow, my back hates it even more.

my back hates it even more.

you have a back left???? whats that like????:eek: :rolleyes: :D

I thought they said the HEAVY snowfall wasnt gonna be here till later this afternoon?????:eek: I hate to think its gonna snow harder than it is right now!!! last I heard 18" to 24" .....the river will be a-flowing this spring thats for sure!!!!

Well... At least I'll get to use the new snow blower again. Not thrilled about it though. :rolleyes:

Vacation week for me, that is until I'm ordered in which I'm sure will happen shorlty.
What a difference a year makes. Remember last year, global warming and wondering how the herring were going to make it upstream w/out water?

I just check weather.com for Boston, and unless I'm crazy it looks like its gonna snow till tomorrow night.

36 hours of blizzard conditions....:smash:

:D

tides 1 to 2 feet above normal 10 to 20 ft seas out there oh boy what a ride i dont even think the clammer would be out there today!!

:mad: :mad: :mad: some ice on buzzards bay

I think I see breaking bass...i'll bring the chainsaw and you cast ok? :D

I got soooo much snow in my yard, I cant see my bushes and they are 3 feet high. I hate snow:af: :af: :af: :af:
Red, U should have a few rods w/chunks out if ya are gonna park that close to the water bro:D .

unless I'm crazy it looks like its gonna snow till tomorrow night you are right on both counts...

Just went to Stop&Shop, oh my god...
There were like 800 people fighting over two pieces of chicken. No steaks, no butter, almost out of eggs...
I went to finish the "Honey Do" list, all I had to get was two things from the deli.
I waited an hour...
I got the cold cuts though, not for me I might add...
We're closing both restaurants at 3 pm.
Good luck guys, I don't think the driving's that bad, though.
Later,
Rick:laughs:

the table has a foot allready and my temporary shelter is falling apart!!

Mr. M- Make sure you get that snow off the tarp, especially before it turns to rain! The weight is far more damaging than the snow.

the tarp looks like its starting to cave in the middle and pull up on the sides, pretty soon her slip will be showing.. WOOWOO...:smash:

when you look at that table what do you see?


i see one of those big snowball cupcakes!!! oh my!! one track mind food!! i just cooked some of those steak tips for me and the mrs and of course our baby!! macey!!:D

This guy may have a little trouble getting out, but look how clean his car and the road are.
Don't ya just love New England.....:smash:

edgartown ferry this afternoon

can you see the light?

Unplowed roads down along south beach with nasty wind produced some awesome drifts. Snow was blowing over the hood and roof and stopped the truck at one point. They are going to need some big plows to blow through that stuff. Drifts down there are 3-4' easy Got slightly hung up in the trunk for a little while but managed...Couldn't make it down all the way to the ocean (got within 200 yards or so in Katama..the drifts were just too high. (was trying to get down on the beach to check the surf) The rest of the island is driveable but snowy.

That's funny, I call it the Chappy ferry. :laughs:

I call it chappy ferry too, but that pic was in my edgartown shots and it was called "ferry" hence edgartown ferry.

Are we having fun yet

I live in Hull and we are getting slammed...gonna be some great pictures tonight

I just got home from work. I shoveled my driveway, which was already shoveled twice by my wife and neighbor upstairs. I'd say there was 6" easy when I just shoveled. I doubt I will be going in tomorrow. They care about no ones safety, the foremen were out chasing guys down to make sure they were working.

Its 5:15 and I'm still at work until 8pm. My workplace cannot close, its a 24 hr dept.(Public Utility) There is 18 inches of snow on the ground and it is dumping right now. Snowblower will be cranking when I get home. Have to be back at work at 8 am also. Neighbors are gonna hear the machine early, too bad. Stay safe everyone, have fun digging out.


Bill

This draws a VACUUM!

Hey Sandman,,, nice pic's :)
Let's just hope whats left of the beaches do not end up in the ocean tonight and tomorrow....

Maybe next year we can drown a worm or 2 ..

VB

Any chance this will restore some of Wasque - didn't think so :(

ugh! at least a foot out there....wouldnt it be cool if fish could swim in snow???!!!:D :D :D

maybe I show throw a reel on my new rod and go snow casting!!!:D :D :D :D

I think Wasque is gone for good,,, :(
u never can tell....

Just saw the Cronicle show on channel 5..It was about the Trusties of the Reservations....Had a few shots of The Vineyard...Please bring on spring.......:smash:

South County is still getting snow. Over 12'' of snow with some 3-4' drifts. The wind is really crankin down here.

Bloo, thanks for the wader idea for shoveling! Works great! Sometimes you gotta think out of the box. :kewl:

This is outside my front door:af: http://mywebpages.comcast.net/baubus5/Picture%20014.jpg I hate this snow! I declare Jihaad on all snow!

damn those snow plows,,,,i get the front of the driveway shoveled and an hour later they come back and fill it in:af: :af:

Well I just took a look and we have 13" here in Yarmouth. 23" total on the ground. I have two kids that have going out one at a time every hour and shovling !! I have not had to leave the basement all day.
I glued my reel seat today and I cleaned 2 reels. That drive way and path to the emergency houe is as clean as a wistle!! Emergency house in my 27 foot camper. It has 60 pounds of propane for the heat and cooking. Have two Batterys fully charged for power. And cell phones. we could hold up in there for a week with out a problem.

30 Days till spring!!
Macojoe

Scotch, they work like a charm....especially when your going to be out there for a couple of hours. I'm glad it worked out for you. My pair is the deluxe model, studded felt soles :D ICE?? HA!


....I thought it was bad 2 days ago when I showed Goose a spot that had 1,000s of Ostrich eggs washed up on shore...:eek:

10.00 waders come in handy for over the knee snow!!:happy:

Just got knocked off from plowing...........now they want 2 10 wheelers and the 938Cat for snow removal @ 2400 hrs.


I hate freakin' winter!

I AM FREAKING EXHAUSTED, BEEN MOVING SNOW AT TWO HOUSES SINCE 11, ITS NOW 5 AND I JUST GOT IN. LUCKY FOR MY SON HE JUST SO HAPPENED TO BE UP IN NH SKIING, FOR 4 DAYS, I COULD REALLY HAVE USED THE HELP. MY BACK IS SCREAMING TOO, DON'T YOU JUST LOVE SNOW. :smash:

GOD putith and GOD can takeith away..

I don't shovel (unless I abs. have to...)

Just mow thru it in 4wd. It will melt before you know it. It is not worth wiping out your back for something stupid as shoveling.

VB, with the high tides and weather this winter...there is quite a bit less beach at the moment. I was down there on a high tide about a week ago and the surf running up really high on the beach.

Anyone want to sit on my deck for a cold one??
30 Day's till spring!!
