Black Dawg Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 ^ They tried to act like it was no big deal 2 years ago in The Washington Metro area. People were trapped in their cars for 8 hrs+. The only reason the Gov has to do this is employers act like idiots. If your job does not involve public safety, STAY THE HELL OUT OF THE WAY. I stayed home that day the rest of humanity created an unneeded disaster. When the snow falls faster than the plows can move it, It is time to get off the roads.

SuperDave Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Live in the NYC Metro area. Snow is increasing in intensity and have about 6" on the ground so far. The worst of it, they say will be around 8 pm to 2 am. Snowfall rates of 2-3 inches per hour are expected and the winds will pickup quite a bit. Will probably have winds sustained around 30 and gusts about 50 mph. It's a pretty heavy snow and it's starting to accumulate on the trees. That's what worries me. Well perhaps, the winds will blow it off. Don't want power outtages either. That especially sucks in the winter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jb126 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Before my power goes out for good, wanted to wish everyone in Nemo's path well (planted, Anjin-san, SuperDave, The Chase, and anyone I've missed). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MINI_Zoso Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Before my power goes out for good, wanted to wish everyone in Nemo's path well (planted, Anjin-san, SuperDave, The Chase, and anyone I've missed). Ah, it has a name! Nemo. And it is apparently looking for us here too! Oh well, I haven't had to use my snow blower for over a month, we are due I suppose. All the best to everyone in it's path.

ebk Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Everyone take care up there. And keep us as informed as you can. I'll be thinking of you all!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SuperDave Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Thanks for the well wishes Jb126. Moderate snow around here and winds around 20 or so, but not too bad. That will change. Watching NECN (NE Cable News and there are wind gusts well over 60 mph off the East Coast of Mass. Heavy snow too. The worst of it will be in the east. Pray for all affected here!!!

missytootsweet Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I'm wishing the best for all of you in the Northeast facing Nemo. I can't imagine what it must be like to have hurricane conditions with snow involved! Please be safe and warm and post back when you can. Missy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SuperDave Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 (edited) Snow getting more intense here. Probably around 8" or so. It's coming down sideways now with the wind. Much worse to the east in Rhode Island and Mass with 60+ mph gusts. More than 310K w/o power in RI, MA and CT. Most in RI and MA. Some snow totals in CT over 19" so far. Not done yet. Just had a wind gust of 76 mph at Boston's Logan Airport. Wow! Lot of snow here, but much worse east and north of here. Will try to keep you updated! I'm near NYC and wind gusts up to about 30 so far. Much worse elsewhere! Edited February 9, 2013 by SuperDave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
planted Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Winds are really picking up here and the snow is falling in every direction! Up, down, sideways! I decided to make a pot of coffee before we lose power and to run the dishwasher... Clean dishes and cold coffee is better than nothing! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
