Yikes! They are now showing a major storm for Thurs into Friday with NYC getting 1-2 feet of snow! Philly around a foot so anywhere in between for most of NJ again. I hope it's too warm for the snow, I'm tired of looking at this white stuff. And then they mentioned another snow storm for middle of next week. Not that we need to worry about that right now. :-? I waited 15 years to buy a snowblower, maybe I timed it just right! :lol:

I really hope it doesnt snow. Just when all this other snow is starting to melt, of course we will probably get another 12" to keep it around for another month... I cant wait for spring

Snow to be measured in feet by the end of the week

The Middle Atlantic region has stolen most of the weather headlines this winter, but that's all about to change. The Northeast is going to be hit by a prolonged, major snowstorm in the coming days. Snowfall amounts might be measured in feet, and the combination of snow and wind will create an all-out blizzard at the storm's peak.

When I see snow, I see green, and lots of it... dollaz dollaz dollaz $$$$$$$$$$$$ :-D

Just curious... 27-30" of snow doesn't reach over your car tires?

02-26-2010, 12:02 PM
That was after we had already shoveled twice. We used the snow blower twice last night.
EDIT: I meant 27-30 inches of snow "here" meaning in Pa. Not in the picture. Second picture is a better gauge.

02-26-2010, 12:09 PM
We lucked out this time and only got around 5-6". I ran the snowblower at 7:30 this morning and started working from home at 8. Then the sun came out and cleared off the driveway and roads pretty good so I drove into work. You guys up north can have the 20"+ of snow, we've had enough this winter.

A view from my big rig this morning. Easily 30 inches here.
There was a stretch of about 15 houses on one of our roads that had demolished/missing mailboxes. I got cursed at 4 times by people shoveling the end of their driveways. I've been given the middle finger once. I gotten stuck with my garbage truck 3 times. I went sideways once in it as well, missing a ditch by about 2 feet. Definately a fun experience :lol:

Very strange, in Hackettstown/Great Meadows, there's easily a foot and a half. Had my dog up by the track today and she had to leap to get around, but 15 miles away in PA we only got about 5 inches or so once the snow blew it around
