Who Else Is Getting Ready for Yet Another Nor'Easter Snow Storm?

[Anikaca77]

Ok it's coming down at a good speed now. I'll leave work maybe 15 mins. early today.

Take care everyone and be safe on the roads.

It's snowing here, too, but not sticking yet. I looked at the Baltimore Sun's webpage and it says they could get 30".....or more!

We're going to get a lot, over a foot, maybe two.

I hate the stuff.

All the banks in the area are closed and will be closed tomorrow. YAY!

It's supposed to pass South of us, but I am still kind of hopeful we'll get some.

And Richard, it's call a Nor'Easter because of the directions of the winds in the storm. The weather mass from the south come up and meets cold air cycling in from the North Atlantic, and it spirals counter-clockwise, syphoning more moisture in off the Atlantic, adding to the snow or wind totals. It tends to wreak havoc on the shoreline as well.

I hope everyone stays safe and warm.

Hey Karen - I think he was wondering why it's called a nor'Easter and not a north'Easter.

Ah, we New Englanders have us a peculiar accent for some things, and leave of sounds and letters all the time. North Easter sounds too, I dunno, precise and sedate for the lumbering, precipitating mess that a good Nor'Easter is.

It is snowing here, but not sticking at all. I still see the tips of the grass.

The transport for our little foster, Gretchen, was cancelled for tomorrow (since it goes way north to NY). It was postponed til Sunday thinking the roads will be clearer. Safer, surely.

I am all too happy to have it delayed a day....letting go of this little shepherd is turning out to be harder than we thought.

There's a very easy solution to the problem >>>

Just KEEP THE PUP!

Awww, my prayers may be working.


It snowed all day yesterday & most of the night. It's stopped today. We
are not to bad off, only 8 or 9 in". I will have to clear off my driveway if
I want to go anywhere.

I'm an export from RI, so I used to talk funny too!!!

It's really coming down here. I was just getting used to most of the snow having melted, too. We're supposed to get 5 or 6 inches tonight. The roads are already a mess. I prepared for it, stocked up on groceries. Guess I'll do the cleaning thing tomorrow and make spaghetti sauce. I'm having some girlfriends in on Sunday. None of us are interested in the Super Bowl, so we're going to eat spaghetti and just enjoy each other's company. The roads should be ok by then. It's funny, I don't mind staying in when it snows if it's my choice but if I have to stay in b/c I'm snowed in, I get panicky.
