Could be worse. We could be getting what DC has already received and are lined up for 10-20" more.

I agree though. Is it spring yet?

Need about 3 more days of weather like this so we can start getting some open water again.

The weather guys have been arguing about this storm for the last 2 days, when I left at 1715 they were still debating it.
Will be interesting to see how much we actually get.

Beautiful out at 9:15PM: clear skies, lots of stars, no winds, and still above freezing......

Everyone here as in, only the people that have posted in this thread?

Have a safe trip tomorrow. The further south you go, the more people completely lose their minds when the snow comes down.

Be careful for sure Eben. I drove from the Cape to North Jersey during
a snow storm one day and it took me 10 hours and i couldn't count the
accidents.

Show starts Friday at 10:00 am... My move in pass is for 11:00 am Thursday. It takes 4 to 5 hours to set up my booth... I'm thinking I am going to roll the dice and leave early Thursday morning and hope I can get my booth set up that night..... Oh, did I mention I will have a van load of fragile glass??? Uggg.

Today was amazing out. If my bike wasn't up at Ocean State HD I would have loved to go for a evening blast through town.

A short but intense storm will impact the sne area from about 0900 to 1800 with snow rates of 1-2 inches an hour in the pm with winds during that timeframe reaching into the 40-50 mph range.
6-10 inches of snow have already fallen across areas of the Delmarva area and PA/NJ

The panic was a joke. The forcast was a joke. I blame Deval and Menino for the former. That disaster 2 years ago is still costing the taxpayers thousands $$$.

You must be on OT by now Ron.

Storm is increasing intensity now, but too late. Just saw the tell tale sign of an exploding transformer: flash of blue light then bang!

Close but not a transformer on our circuit (yet).

I haven't seen this type of low level warm air infiltration in my lifetime of weather observation. there was a warm air band, like 35-38F no more than several hundred yards wide that swept in about 500 feet above the ground. Almost all the way up to BOS.

I think it was a moonbat plot, to prove global warming.

Probably 3-4 in Tiverton, but it's an ugly mix...
