| Posted: | | | | A major storm affecting upwards of 50 million of the US population is hitting Eastern US over the next few days. They are saying it could be the biggest snowstorm to ever hit NYC, with potentially up to 30"" of snow, high winds. Lots of tree damage and power outages are expected. We have stocked up on supplies, and gas for the car, snow blower and generator. If the predictions are wrong - never mind, but if they are correct, and we get through it, I'll post some pictures. If there is anybody in New England (Mass, etc.), I think you guys will get even worse. Good luck!!! | | | Thanks for your support. Free Plugins available here. Advanced plugins available here.

| Posted: | | | | I live in NH and work in MA. They're saying this could be a top 5 storm in history for MA. I came in to work early today to get as much done as possible, fully anticipating not being able to get back to the office until either Wednesday afternoon or Thursday. Fortunately, I got my snow blower repaired and supplies secured over the weekend, so I'm fully prepared for whatever hits. | | | My phpDVDprofiler collection |

| Posted: | | | | It's going to have to be one hell of a storm to live up to the hype and hyperbole being spewed by the media and the commercial weather services (Weather Channel, Accuweather, etc.). | | | Last edited: by Mixmaster_Mal |

| Posted: | | | | Seems like New York got lucky. But New England is getting pounded - up to 40" (1meter+) in Massachusetts.
But it is still snowing 100 miles north of NYC where I am. Cold and windy. Good day for watching videos and upgrading plugins to 3.9.0. | | | Thanks for your support. Free Plugins available here. Advanced plugins available here. Hey, new product!!! BDPFrog. | | | Last edited: by mediadogg |

| Posted: | | | | We're officially at 22" as of 2 hours ago in Southern NH. I'm expecting another 4-6" before it starts winding down. The blowing snow makes it hard to take a good measurement. Here's a view out the side door... | | | My phpDVDprofiler collection |

| Posted: | | | | We officially topped out at 33", which was a record for a single storm for my city. Fortunately, being light & fluffy, my snow blower made quick work of it. | | | My phpDVDprofiler collection |

| Posted: | | | | Well wouldn't you know it - with almost no hype, a second storm is doing to New York what the first one was predicted, but didn't. Go figure.
We've got over 10 inches, and it should continue to snow all day, Expecting 18 inches or more. | | | Thanks for your support. Free Plugins available here. Advanced plugins available here. Hey, new product!!! BDPFrog. |

| Posted: | | | | We got about 18-20 inches out of this latest storm too. I'm now running out of room to put it all and the snowbanks are almost too high for the snow blower to blow new snow over. | | | My phpDVDprofiler collection |
