EuroFight Posted February 8, 2013 Posted February 8, 2013 I had the news on at lunch time, they had a reporter out on the interstate reporting that 1 inch of snow had accumulated. We're all goig to die.Is it true Massachusetts has closed down all their highways? Yeah... Hey don't say that, in the UK we do that every time it rains. Not officially or anything, it's just people tend to find an undue attraction to other cars, bridges and lampposts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since when is 2-3' not a blizzard? Even for Vermont, that's a blizzard By me, we got a little over a foot. Definitely not as bad as CT got hit...saw one place reported at just over 38". Eek!

kyfire Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 The ammount of snow is not what makes a blizzard. Here's the offical National Weather Service definition of blizzard.... Blizzard (abbrev.
