I'm actually kind of excited to experience a bonafide blizzard... as long as I still have power. :P

Winter, in February? :D

 

I think I'm a bit jealous of you guys, we got like half an hour of 'snowfall' this year :(

Man these spammers are geniuses...put (NO SPAM) in the thread title to hide the spam.  It's brilliant.  Hopefully this doesn't catch on...what if rapists wear signs that say (NOT A RAPIST)?  They will be raping everybody! D:

Groton Submarine base here. I will be in the path! 

 

I am excited! I have never seen so much snow before so I am looking forward to it. My glorified UPS unit (laptop battery) should hold out the 15 minutes it takes to start the generators......hopefully.

To all my poor family and friends in the Eastern end of the continent, look out Alberta Clipper moving in, with the double whammy of a South Western low.

Glad I don't move to Southern Ontario until the end of the month. :teehee:

Decided to work from home today because I didn't want to have the possibility of needing to drive in the snow. Still no snow where I live.

I'm actually kind of excited to experience a bonafide blizzard... as long as I still have power. :P

New to the area?

 

I've lived through too many blizzards to know I'm not a fan :lol:

 

It was great when I was in grade school, but after you "enter the real world," it's not so fun anymore. Only good thing is that my job was canceled for tomorrow.

Been in Boston for 5-6 years, not quite new. The last real blizzard was 1978 in Boston... the year I was born. How OLD are you? :P
