Blizzard watch
 

Yeah!
National Weather Service Watch Warning Advisory Summary

Hopefully this blows up! Due back to work sunday morning from vacation, hopefully this fixes that:jump1:

I'm really bummed. My snow blower goes in for service on Monday. Mice ate the electrical wires and I was thinking I dodged the bullet hearing the forecast a few days ago. Friggin foot of snow is going to suck. Guess I will have to locate my shovel and start stretching my back.

Channel 7 called it a Rt24 storm with potentials to 2 ft: thunder snow and coastal effects. Blizzard watches from Hull all around the coast changing to warnings on LI.

Eeek - bad week for hurting store owners to get hit with a blizzard

:kewl:

oh yeah baby. looks like it's going to be a green christmass $$$$$$$. i see some new tuna gear in my future

I better head out to Market Basket and pick up 6 loaves of bread, 4 gallons of milk, 7 gallons of water, some candles, batteries and some ice melt. :biglaugh::rotf2::biglaugh::rotf2:

um.... Yeah

May be able to get a whole new boat, Channel 7 upped forecast to 20-24" widely on south shore.

think igloo :)

Pretty much all of RI has been upped to 10-15".

I heard the governor has upgraded the state to emergency level due to the release of Avatar and the storm. Troubles brewing

Excellent, that means we'll get taxpayer funded subsidies to pay for the snow machines to ferry us to the cinema :uhuh:

RI will be out of milk and break for months after this store. Dont worry guys I can fed ex you milk and bread from NY if you run into shortages. :rotf2::rotf2::rotf2:

Why does the government have to be in the snow removal business anyway?
It would be better if snow removal was privatized and we were not paying state pensions to people driving snow plows. That way you just pay them to clear the snow today, and you don't have to continue paying them thirty years after the snow is gone.

Some towns have privatized it to an extent. In Mansfield, I believe they have a handful of year-round DPW employees drive trucks owned by the town and any extra work is handed out to freelance plows.

At least the storm is coming early in the week and not right in the middle of when people will be traveling for Christmas.

Because Dunkin Donuts lobbys the legislature :rotf2:

(OK, that was a joke I just made up, sounded funny)

I had a momentary panic attack this morning, not because I was out of milk or bread but I was out of BEER!

Feel better now, got Sam's Winter before the liquor store ran out. Surprise as there were no lines.

You ain't kiddin!Been there and done that,what a nightmare!

The packy only closes after they institute martial law or 10:00pm - whichever comes first.

:hihi:

yep.... been ordered closed twice in my 31 years...called the boss both times... one was in a horrendous blizzard, other was Hurricane bob...

called boss.. "PD is here, says we gotta close."

"WHAT?...WHY?... JAYZUZ H CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS... TELL THEM TO GO TO HELL!"


after I calmed them down... i closed... :hihi:

best part was during the blizzard, I think they closed us, cause of all the plow trucks swingin in and grabbin pints of blackberry brandy...:rotf2::rotf2:

Roads are already buried in salt and theyre spraying liquid deicers on the roads already. Looks like this is gonna be a makers mark storm :jump1:

Fully stocked with beer.Plenty of propane for the grills/burners.This is gonna be a great birthday.

"To the end I grapple with thee . . . . . . "
Got my flame thrower ready to send some Christmas cheer.
Lord almighty do I hate snow.
:fury:

One part of me knows you're joking, while the other part is sure using a flame thrower has crossed your mind.

this storm is HUGE
 

it covers 5 or 6 states

1978 :point: here we go again :uhuh:

I'm prepared for this ON-Slaught

Good thing it's on a weekend...

-spence

MMMmmmmmm......not even gonna be close!:no2:

I got all the white eggs and Wonderbread I needed at S&S. No brown eggs, those are crap anyway

And a quart of Autocrat

I just went to S&S there was nobody there. Fresh bread was being baked - got some milk and some eggs too. My son's buddy is over and they are going to help me clear out after I make them french toast in the morning.
