Snowing like Hell here
 
It is coming down like a blizzard in NW RI right now. Turned to snow about 2:20 PM

Fishpart 03-08-2005 03:03 PM

Thanks a lot...........:wall: At least I don't need to cut the $(*%&) snow once a week........

spence 03-08-2005 03:13 PM

outfished 03-08-2005 03:17 PM

Hmm, warm and sunny in the 80's here near Boston.:D

Bronko 03-08-2005 03:23 PM

This is getting to be a royal pain in the a@#!:smash:

piemma 03-08-2005 03:28 PM

This winter has been relentless. I heard that there is another big storm on Friday. Just spoke to a buddy in Southern Wisconsin and it's in the mid-Teens right now. Also headed this way.

Bronko 03-08-2005 03:38 PM

I heard the same thing Pie from a buddy out west. We are in that pattern riding the fence between the tropical moisture and the cold artic air. We need that jet stream to lift north....until then we will be in jeopardy every time a couple of fronts meet.:af:

TBone 03-08-2005 03:40 PM

CT is a nightmare right now. Changed to snow around 11 am in the hartford area, it froze on the roads and now there's about 1-2" of snow on top of that ice! Hell my commute's been pretty mundane lately...time to spice it up!

striprman 03-08-2005 03:48 PM

t's not snowing in Brockton ...yet.

MakoMike 03-08-2005 03:59 PM

4:00 in the afternoon and no snow in Pawtucket yet.

zacs 03-08-2005 04:01 PM

perfect hOOters weather

Vermonter 03-08-2005 04:53 PM

Basically a whiteout up here.......Im guessing we've had about 6-7 inches but tough to tell with the wind blowing as it is......we were due, last couple of storms Mass got hit worse.

Slingah 03-08-2005 04:59 PM

AAAAHHHHHHHHH...#@&*ing snow:smash:

beachwalker 03-08-2005 06:03 PM

Can't wait for mid April. Hopefully no snow worries after then :D

cheferson 03-08-2005 06:12 PM

beachwalker 03-08-2005 06:15 PM

Eben : been there done that.....several times...as for leaving new england...don't bother as you always come back.... theres something about new england that is not found anywhere else.... hard to put your finger on it though.

Mr. Sandman 03-08-2005 08:07 PM

Rain here :D but it is causing a flood because it is melting snow on frozen ground:mad:

Saltheart 03-08-2005 08:11 PM

Incredibly windy in Cumberland now. Snowing like hell but not accumulating too much. Wind is the story here now. I'd say its gusting 60+ right now at my house.

missing link 03-08-2005 08:18 PM

side ways snow blowing prob like 40 with gusts up to 50+ piling up QUICK

tynan19 03-08-2005 08:30 PM

Pt.JudeJoe 03-08-2005 09:05 PM

It took me 1 hr 45 min. to get home from the Habratory tonight...usually a 50 min ride. Traffic doing 25 on rt 95 ice under snow and blowing sideways :eek: . I t was cool on top o' the Newport Bridge though:cool: .

Pt.JudeJoe 03-08-2005 09:09 PM

Hey 100 posts :happy: do I get a T-shirt?...a nifty striper pin like Star has?........cufflinks? :(

Mike P 03-08-2005 09:14 PM

No real accumulation here, but it hit around noon, and every a-hole immediately left work early. End result, jammed roads, no way for the plows and salt trucks to do their thing, evening commute was a living hell :af:

I was in 4wd the whole way and averaging 25-30. Lost count of the spinouts, 75% of which were SUVs. :rolleyes:

They say it was real bad in NJ and that I-95 was a parking lot from Greenwich to Bridgeport.

Raven 03-09-2005 06:23 AM

hey maniac

Glad she was ok. Driving got really nasty last nite. I made a trip over to Walpole (about 9 miles) and when I was ready to leave it was white out. Took 50 minutes to get home with a stop every mile to clean off the wiper blades, All season blades my arse.

tynan19 03-09-2005 07:11 AM

2 degrees at my house this morning. Wind shaking it all night. 59mph. with about 6-8 inches of snow. Poor me.:smash:

Skitterpop 03-09-2005 07:16 AM

I was mental
 
After getting what frozen cars we could get inside my 45 to 50 minute commute home from Walpole (Hi Dave!) took almost two full hours..... some moron/overly cautious/just plain scared driver had that gap to go by plows....two to the right then a bit further two to the left.... that driver decided to go 15 mph and not pass the first set of plows after miles of horn honking and lights flashing a few of us directly behind got by with a move Belichek would have been proud of.... What a frigging nightmare commute that was!

AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

Any herring yet? :rolleyes:

piemma 03-09-2005 08:45 AM

My sources tell me that the Herring have taken a detour and have firmly settled into St Croix.
This &^%$ Winter just will not quit. Started shoveling at 4:00 AM this morning. 10 right now in NW RI with the wind blowing 50 MPH.
:af: :af: :af:
