Just saw the latest predictions....12" + for my area.

I feel like Adam Vinatieri just lined up a 60 yard field goal and hit me square in the groin! There is still so much to do to get "ready" for winter. This just sucks!

Thumbs down just did a survey

it looks like its gonna be real bad
due to the type of snow were getting

wet and sticky....

and the fact that the trees are still
fully leafed out. it's only a matter of time
now before you start hearing the snapping
of limbs and out goes the lights.(power)

i have sagging branches now that will soon be touching
the ground that are normally over your head

Just went down to check out the beach down in S Plymouth - up on the cliffs. I could lean out into the wind like the old peppermint patty commercials. Crazy wind and pounding rain.

Hopefully the surf will dig out the reef that got completely buried by the last Noreaster of last spring. Flattened out the whole beach and filled in all the deep holes. Not worth a $h!t since the reef disappeared.

Anyone think there will be anything left in CCB after this one?

Lots of branches breaking all night. Thud thiud thud all night on the roof as snow globs fell from trees. lost power at 4:45. Came on at 12 PM. Still need to survey the damage around my yard but at least nothing appears to have fallen on the house this time.

What a pain in the butt !!
