Yesterday 1-3 inches today 20+ Inches? WTF!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Well... snow blower started and checked out, fresh gas with conditioner, shovels on the porch, plenty of salt, plow guy all set to go, generator tested and ready, oil in the tank, 2 full tanks of propane for the generator, plenty of food and drinks. I am ready. Even my body is ready to go. It's a freakin' miracle.

So now that I have gotten all that in order, just figured I would share so you all would be able to relax... because it is absolutely positive that none of it will be needed. Heck the power has only been out for two hours since I put the generator in 2++ years ago. Garanteed.... no need.

thanks for warding off the storm, much appreciated.:musc:

I am supose to go meet the transplant team Tue in Boston, I am so close to getting the deal done! They are such a pain to get appointments that I hate to miss one, but I guess I will now :af:

Geeeeees, that sucks Joe
Sounds like progress though. Good luck

My offer to drive TFCTF night is out,,, don't think I'll make it 3 weeks after new knee.... :-)

Joe try to confirm if your team will be in Tuesday no matter the weather, drive into town Monday

Is your doctor, or hospital associated with the Ronald McDonald house in any way? My suggestion is to ask, and then go to Boston tomorrow and see if you can stay there at least until after your appointment. People are allowed in there even though they don't have cancer. My wife takes her father to Tufts quite a bit and one appointment was late. They offered them a room.

I'm in Lincoln RI if anyone needs anything; food, water gas can or any older relatives checked up on.

We're ready here if anyone needs anyone checked up on just let me know I'll be checking in here between my rounds or just call me I help out my parents and a few older folks when we get feet instead of inches. Be safe everyone.

macojoe i hope all goes well... for you

this is shaping up to be a repeat of the storm in "78"
maybe not as deep
70 mph winds seems harsh and thunder snow

I'm ready. 50# of ice melt, 5 qts milk, lots of wine, plenty of groceries and I bought a smaller shovel so the wife won't hurt her back this time.:laughs:

Thanks all!! I go to Tuff's, they called today to say they will not be in tomorrow. So I have to go on the 5th and 24th of Feb. now.
Almost there, when these two app. are done I should go on the list, then my brother can get tested, if a match we move to transplant.
Guy next to me at dialysis got a call sunday to say they had a kidney, he was wow!! 1/2 hour they called back said the donor did not look good when they opened him up so no deal. What a let down, but at least knowing that after 3 years they are watching the list!! They say hes near top now!!

crap the lights flickering now!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Raider Ron. :nailem:
Here on the banks of the Weymouth Fore River, the water is 25 ft. from my house now at high tide.

Good Luck Macojoe.

i can barely open my back door due to snow drift
front door is a non exit now.... dog cannot go outside
as the snow is way to deep.... i let her see for herself
and she realized "i can wait strategy" is the only choice.

First round of snow removal. Perfect weather for a Stormr jacket.

got about a foot ..still coming..East end got hit harder

5" in southern Conn. light and fluffy.

Not that I'm complaining, but so far its been a dud around here. Maybe 2-3 inches.

Hard to tell here in west warwick some really big drifts 4' to 5' and had some bare spots, not sure of the actual totals but considering its been snowing almost 24 hrs i will agree.
Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device

Probably around a foot here but really drifting. Bare grass on one side of the house and 3' on the other...

Snow just picked back up and is coming down hard. Looks like this afternoon will be bad.

Im just outside of hartford ct. Stopped snowing about 10 am and sun pushing through thick clouds. Forecast was 24-30" but we ended up with about 14" some bare spots, some drifts.
I have never been so happy to see 14 inches of snow since i was expecting waist deep. And power stayed on
Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device

Probably have 20-21 inches so far. Another 3-6 to come. Wind driven drifts make it hard to pin down accurately. Been watching neighbors clearing, only to see the wind fill it back in. We haven't left the house... Might head out to at least clear my drive and vehicles so as to get an early start tomorrow. Told all my customers that it would be Wednesday before I got there anyway. The wind just wont quit here on the coast.....

The wind is brutal down here,,, shoveled for close to 3 hrs this afternoon and probably have another 3 to go tomorrow 😂 :smash:
If this global warming keeps up I may consider a snow blower :biglaugh:

Probably 2'+ with bigger drifts out here on MV. Wind was roaring..60 at times. I don't shovel (all vehicles I own are big 4wd's)but I had to clear the furnace vents and drains, they were partially buried. Never lost power. Wood stove and pellet stove kept house 74 deg all day. I was downstairs making plugs all day. :)
This past year they replaced all the electric poles with big heavy taller poles and re-rigged the power lines so they very well supported and above all the trees. They also did a lot of heavy trimming. Everyone (except me) was complaining all summer about Nstar putting in eyesores and that they never asked the commission for permission to do that. NSTAR told the commission...we don't ask permission, we do what we want these belong to us and that pissed them off and it was back and forth all summer. I bet they are happy they didn't loose power now. (probably not actually, they are morons). My local 'hood is underground and the cable to the island is underwater so it is only the few miles that we have an issue.

I always look forward to your storm reports.

How did the power to Nantucket get cut?

If anyone near south shore - Wareham is without power let me know. I can drop my generator off . So far we're good here.

I haven't exited my house since about 9 last night, and really there's no point. My street runs east/west and a snowdrift averaging 4-feet deep is running the entire 200-yard distance. No plows yet, and until they come through there's not a car on this street with any hope of moving. Crazy.

Guessing we have about 2 ft here in Marshfield and still coming......

Hard to believe we haven't lost power, hasn't even flickered.....usually in many parts of Marshfield losing power always is an issue. Maybe they have been doing better tree trimming.

They predicted 2-3 feet here but if we ended up with a whole 6" I would be surprised (hard to tell with drifting but I would say maybe 4" total on top of the 4" from Saturday) I do love snow but would rather it in VT than here even still. Either way I still cant help but feel let down that EVERYTHING was over-hyped for our area and closed for nothing! Forecasters really blew it for my area! What a waste too that last night between 9-10 P.M. the plows went through (yes with blades down) 8 times in one hour and we barely had an inch at that point! Even considering the fact that they did each side of the road once that's still 4 plows, both directions in a hour...no clue what they were plowing at that point. Completely "over-hyped" and as a result a huge waste of resources.

yeah, come to my house. 30" +. 5 foot drifts. I plowed all day yesterday.

Not the blizzard of 78 but a top 10 storm.

the snow was so fine and blowing so hard it came thru my window
screen in the bathroom like finely shredded cheese.
No sense trying to clear it under those conditions.
Today, i will begin to "dig out" my cars. can't even see my wife's volvo.
this will take several days. My dog has gone blind with cataracts
and i dug out a spot outside the back door for her to go
but she couldn't understand the walls of snow towering over her
bumping into them in all directions like a pin ball game.
the snow is over the top of my chain link fence.
thank god it's Fluffy texture.

With the duration of this storm amd wind i am feeling very lucky taking the drifts into account i would say we ended up with 6".

I spoke with a few folks in the north and they were telling me they were approaching the 3' mark and that was mid day yesterday hope the storm ended favorably for them as i have not heard from them yet..
Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device

I'd guess 18" Down here; the official total at the Westerly Airport was 20.5"

They say 28" here?? But we never lost power! Got the car out yesterday with my sons help, but the plows have it locked in again. Going out now to do my best at getting out as I have to go to dialysis, thank god they made us all go in today at 11am, instead of 6am.
Glad everyone is ok, bless them plow guys! Wish my son was not one of them so he could dig me out

Mom, on the Cape, said nothing in the back yard - 10ft drifts in front :jump:

I spent a good part of yesterday moving show with either the snow blower or the tractor. THings are looking good, all i have to do now is clear a oath to the wood pile and im good to go. Going to make for crappy ice fishing this weekend though.

How did the power to Nantucket get cut?

Nantucket has their own generators. I heard a sub station on the island fried and caused the generator(s) to fail and a cascade problem island wide of some sort. (But this was hearsay)

I don't think they have a power cable to the mainland but they may by now. MV has 3 conduits that cross the sound. Every 10 years or so one goes and they need to replace it. A couple years ago two went and it was peak summer load. They had the on island back up generators and a lot of portable equipment running all summer. These things are B I G. I think Obama had one just for him. I recall a few years ago a big boat (a mega yacht)anchored in the sound and snagged on to one and actually pulled it to within sight at the surface before figuring out what he just did. That caused all kind of issues.


I bet NE has a mini "baby boom" of sorts next Oct/Nov :humpty: with all this time off.

either that or murder rate skyrockets :gorez:

Where the hell did I park my car? Get ready for the Southie spot saver stories.

This storm was not over hyped at all.. it just ended up in different places.

if you live in a region that was spared a 30" snowfall, you should be happy instead
of feeling like someone pulled a fast one on you.

Come a bit west. Some places out my way will be fine. As long as this next storm predicted for Sunday/Monday stays rain!

tell my aching muscles it was over hyped. I would have loved 5 inches

Stays rain? It's projected to be all snow and a foot or more depending where you are.

I'm scheduled to fly to San Diego in the afternoon and am not looking forward to it.

I hear you Paul, but you needed the exercise :)

I did mine, then today did my parents, then their neighbor.

now back to the shop for more work

I am junk. Cleared 12 properties.... Started at 0530. Son was on the shovel doing stairs and breaking down banks and snow that was over the Ariens scoop. He did a great job. And made a good day's pay. I just hope he can show up tomorrow before his afternoon classes at Salem State. Need to do a second sweep at a couple properties from today, a couple nightmare driveways that have called just today, and get two flat roofs cleared. Given the forecast for more snow Monday, I need to make sure this storm's snow is properly placed, especially on the one way streets in Old Town....... This is State St. Maddies on right.

Well I live in Brant Rock. It was bad for a few people I feel bad for but for the most part it wasn't bad at all. We never lost power . The news is really blown it out of proportion . I could I had a nice quiet day listening to the surf and shoveling the driveway but instead I had to listen to news helicopters overhead all day.
Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device

yeah, come to my house. 30" +. 5 foot drifts. I plowed all day yesterday.

Not the blizzard of 78 but a top 10 storm.

Wasn't trying to downplay it in general. I know folks to the east a south of her got hammered. Just couldn't believe that most of W. mass had been forcast for anywhere from 1-3 feet and it was nowhere near that (here). I know it's hard to predict exact amounts and storm path but just making a comment that I was shocked at how far off they were...again, for my area.

3+ hours behind a snow blower back to back days trying to find the cars we knew were parked in the driveway, down by the beach in Plymouth MA was snow drift city. No power for a day either, but getting away from deflate gate was a nice change of pace.

Spent 16 hours moving white stuff Tuesday most time was at my commercial property. Didn't even bother with the snowblower until Wednesday.

Just unreal in Central MA Worcester just seems to be the snow bowl

No problem Jenn. I think the way the storm setup had a lot to do with you guys to the West escaping the brunt of the storm. I glad we didn't loose power.

Did mine, neighbors driveway hes in his late 70's, then did a second neighbors driveway and their sidewalk as well. My cousins made it to mom and dads before I could so I owe those guys beer :) We got a pretty solid 3-4 feet and drifts about 5-6. A friend in Hudson got CREAMED!

Ross - that must be a friggin nightmare in old town!

We got hit hard in Rockport, lost power for 24 hours. If I was living here permanently I would go out tomorrow and buy a generator and hire an electrician to get a hook up to the main fuse box to keep the heat on - it will be the first winter prep thing I do in a new home.
My neighbor across the street has a generator, which saved all of our asses!

I'd say we got about 2' in the yard and we had drifts about 4 in the driveways. My kids school just called and he's off again tomorrow. We just got our road plowed yesterday afternoon.

I just ordered a single circuit transfer switch for 81$ ( Reliance Controls TF151W 1 Circuit Transfer Switch) that connects my generator directly to my oil furnace and circuation pump. No need to hook up to the cuircuit panel. I have a generator and have run cords into the house for household items, but have never had the ability to run my furnace. With baseboard pipes prone to freezing, im not risking it anymore.

Similar but much less work for me in Plymouth, at least it was lighter and easier to blow through, but the drifts were deeper this time around for sure. My hardest part was backing the damn thing up the steps to get 4 feet of snow off the deck, that was a challenge.

I like that idea

I went the panel route. I just start the generator and plug into the outside receptacle the electrician installed. The whole house is electrified including my furnace and well pump.

Did the same a couple months ago. Generator receptacle installed alongside my fuse box in my garage. Simply plug in and decide on master fuse box which items to turn on.

You guys need to do this:

MANCHESTER-by-the-SEA, Mass. (AP) — A Massachusetts man has found a way to profit from the several feet of snow in his yard: He's shipping it to people in warmer climates for the bargain price of $89 for six pounds.

Kyle Waring, of Manchester-by-the-Sea, got the idea while shoveling snow earlier this winter and launched ShipSnowYo.com.

At first he shipped 16.9-ounce snow-filled bottles for $19.99, but he found the snow melted by the time it arrived at its destination.

So he came up with a new plan, selling six pounds at a time. He tells The Boston Globe even if the snow melts a little by the time it arrives, the package can still make 10 to 15 snowballs.

He's also started offering 10-pound packages for $119.

He says he'll keep selling until people stop ordering.

to get federal aide for Massachusetts

snow... in the winter... in new england...

Last nite weather men say coating to an inch with no real accumulation. Woke up to 5-6" more white fluffy crap. Manage to blast away with snow blower and not fall as my driveway is an absolute skating rink. Finish. Go to push the snow i brushed off the snowblower off the driveway and take a major digger and dislocate my shoulder again. Fell sunday nite and dislocated it then too. AGONY. Surgery cant come soon enough. Eff fishin and hockey. I just wanna be pain free
So now i am runnin late for work and still have to go do wife s grandmothers house before i go to work and she has to go to dialysis. Stop by a iob site to grab a couple of tools i was gonna need at another job today. Slide on ice pulling into driveway. Cant turn or stop. Smack into granite post at end of narrow driveway. Moosh my 2 yr old bumper in so that it is jammed against tire. Cant drive it. Have already spent 4 hrs with scissor jack and comealong trying to push/ pull it out. So gonna try and have AAA tow it to my brothers in kingston to help since i only got 1 arm. Well tow comany calls and asks if they can do it tomorrow as they r pretty busy????WTF!!!!!??? Now AAA iust called me back while i am typing this and ask if it can wait till tomorrow as say it is gonna be a few hours before they can get any tow company to come get me. Is this a joke????
Gonna take a perk and use the snow for the only thing its good for. Freeze my shoulder.

I am at a job in fallriver for about 25 minutes this morning. Come outside and the tenant is standin on the porch smokin a butt and asks if the big tan chevy truck is mine. I say yeah why?
He says cause it just went sliding down the street and smashed into a parked car which in turn slid and smashed into the next park car. WTF!!!
Sure enough. Mashed in guys POS camry bumper. Even though i had wheels turned in at curb and left 2 spaces between me and him it slid pushed towards the snowbank and just followed it right down the hill like it was on train tracks
Had cops come and he said its what insurance companies call an act of god accident
At least i was able to locate the limited english speakin person who owned the POS. Gonna cost me more than car is worth
2 weds in a row for the front end of my truck takin a beatin
I just cant buy a break
