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

[orangemm]

It's blowing here like a son of a gun; whiteout conditions for sure. I am so sick of hearing/seeing/reading/talking/watching/worrying about the weather I could SCREAM!

WE all need a normal life! This cabin fever stuff is getting real old.

I can't imagine how the folks in Baltimore feel right about now. I survived blizzards there before, but this one is unbelieveable.

We had a break, but it's snowing again. I hope my car doesn't end up being a casualty!!!



ETA: Good news for me! My son and DIL got enough shoveled out in front of my car to move it forward and out of the path of the tree - should it decide to go down. I was sweatin' that one - especially since the car is paid for and it's ALL MINE!

The folks in Baltimore (14 miles from Baltimore, but we work in Baltimore) are pretty darned tired of this, too!
The snow is sideways yet again, the wind is absolutely howling, we've gotten just incredible numbers in snow totals, and I'm just hoping our lovely blue cypress trees can withstand all this. They're rather delicate are weighed down with snow, and this time I can't get to them...

Stay safe everyone, the now is about an hour and a half from my place and I definetely don't like to drive in it.

Driving was awful here today. In East Tennessee, it's usually the people in the mountains that get the snow and we usually get like an inch or two max in the city where I live. But today, it's been snowing ALL DAY, and it hasn't STOPPED snowing and it's STILL snowing.

It looks like a freaking blizzard outside. We have winds up to 20mph and it's pretty pointless for the city to come clean the roads because they get covered up again in an hour or less.

We didn't have to go to school today and we have 70% chance of snow again for tonight... If it keeps up like this we probably won't have to go to school tomorrow either.

If it's this bad here, I can't imagine how awful it is for everyone up north. Hope everyone is staying safe and warm.

I know, I've been watching channel 11 all day. The Sun also has some incredible pictures that people have submitted. Cars totally covered with snow, snow covering entire decks, trees bent over, and on and on.

This storm was supposed to be out of here this evening, but it's changed course and is hanging around for a while.

(wish I could see my old neighborhood to see how it looks about now)

*Whew* I think it's over for us, maybe just a few fluries here and there but that's about it. I'm so excited

Now as long as it stays cold for a while and doesn't melt all this snow and cause flooding I'll be a happy camper!

Hope it's over soon for the rest of you too.

As I have said I adore the snow but I too grew up in the country and know what it is like to worry about electricity going out, and having animals to take care of in a snow storm cows, horses, pigs etc. Nowadays they do take better care of the roads then 40 some years ago and we have better cars with cell phones, GPS, ON Star.
My best advice to all is to get a gas grill a good one and put it in the garage to heat food with. That way if all else fails you can still have a warm meal which is half the battle I think, a hot soup, a hot dog and a hot cup of cocoa do wonders.
I know many have fire places alas I have never had one even in this new home we built.
Am looking forward to the Home and Flower Show tomorrow at the IX Center with my daughter and third son. Son works for a local nursery and has a keen interest in all things green of course. I love going and since it is my birthday well yesterday they usually let me pick something out that I find. I am a seed freak, since I plant my own tomatoes and hundreds of flowers are already growing in the basement with the grow light. I love looking outside and seeing tons of snow and then seeing my little pepper and tomato plants poking their head out of the grew flat, same with the sunflowers. Spring will come when it's ready and when mother nature thinks we are ready to enjoy it with open arms, right now we have to enjoy father winter first. I am rambling, time to pour another glass of wine.
