your thoughts of what is going to happen.

When is this supposed to happen? Because I am 5'9" and that puts me at 69 inches in height... that would be neck level.

yeah pretty fluffing crazy! haha.

its so sick. friday night.

im from CT tho, so ill get about 2-3 feet.

donny dont buy the hype. everyone is gonna buy out all the bread milk and egg and we will get like 4 inches.

That would be exciting, for me, lol. I never get the whole bread, milk, and eggs. Why make french toast in bad weather?

If I were to do something like that, I would get can goods. Although, we always have probably at least 4 months of foods stocked.

bread, milk, and eggs have high protein and starches. both are good for instances that require high energy or maintaining body heat.

What fordy said. :P

they are also staple foods, that are used in almost all recipes.

can of beans is high in protein and starch too

i can survive on a carton of flavor blasted gold fish for a week... :)

correct, but a can of beans doesnt keep morale up like anything cooked with milk and eggs do. comfort food is invaluable during a disaster.

Can of beans = fart fuel lol

True, what happens when the persons house loses power or gas. I personally am a avid camper, but most people don't have the means or the know how to cook without it. You can eat most can food without even cooking it.

are you fn kidding me. I am seriously going to look into this storm after this. I follow storms across the country year round as a interest, took a lot of meterology courses in college (though my degree is in political science) so this stuff is very interesting.

Survival guide
if you have an unfinished basement
-charcoal
-lighter fluid
-lighters AND matches
-bring in grill grate from outside (not whole grill silly)
-any food that will keep for multiple weeks
-fluids optional (you can melt the snow with the charcoal and fire)
-fire extinguisher

hope no one on here lives there!

that sounds like a good idea, burn charcoal with a lighter fluid accelerant in a basement and die from gases......


i keep no less than 5 propane tanks for my grill at all times PapaSmurf. im seasoned by hurricanes.

if you have gas heat/gas stove you will stil have gas for appliances if power goes out you just wont have a thermostat so you can manually turn it on/off if needed and still cook with the stove (just not the oven)

I did a quick search and I keep seeing 24 inches in boston... 24 or 60 its still a lot lol

check again! haha .. were now getting 30" in Connecticut

I am in total f**kin shock.......mr ford said something intelligent.......first time ever on the forums, he must have finally read a book.

By Friday, the greatest impact in New England will be along the Maine coastline, in southeastern New Hampshire, in eastern Massachusetts, and in parts of Rhode Island and Connecticut, says AccuWeather meteorologist Paul Walker. Although snow will start to fall in New England during the day Friday, "the worst conditions will hold off until later Friday and early Saturday," he says.

The hardest-hit cities could be Hartford; Providence; Boston; Worcester, Mass.; Concord, N.H.; Portsmouth, N.H.; and Portland, Maine, AccuWeather predicts. Boston could see at least a foot of snow, possibly more — the first major snowfall for that city this winter.

Two storms — one moving in from the Great Lakes that's producing the snow there today and another one moving up the East Coast — are forecast to merge near New England on Friday, Walker says.

These storms, combined with a high pressure system over Canada that's supplying cold air, provide "a classic setup for a major winter storm across southern New England," the weather service says.

It's actually been more than two years since Boston has seen a snowstorm of greater than 6 inches, according to Weather Channel meteorologist Jon Erdman.

18 - 24 forecast for here in northern ny by the Thousand Islands bridge.

that picture is sick tho. imagine 60 fluffing inches of snow? lol

60 inches of snow would be my worst nightmare. :P

I had more... my area holds the record for most snowfall in a 24 hr period. I was out bar hopping on my snowsled and got caught. Good thing We knew the trails like the back of our hand cause you could not see more then 10 feet, in the dark. We jumped over on the main two lane and rode it home to safety.

let me find the article...

Don't worry NS, you're safe from any snow in that zest pool you live in :p

found it... and bummer i just found out it didn't break the record because it was measured too much

The National Weather Service issued a special report today evaluating a reported lake-effect snowfall record for Jan. 11-12, 1997, in Montague, N.Y. Citing differences between operational and climatological measurements, the NWS ruled that the reported 77-inch, 24-hour snowfall is not a new national climatological record.

For this event, the volunteer observer took six valid operational observations within a 24-hour period, which when added together totaled 77 inches. the max allowed is 4 ( once every 6 hrs )


either way 77 inches of snow in 24 hrs was amazing.

Silver Lake, Colo., currently holds the record for the most snow in a 24-hour period with 76-inches accumulating from April 14-15, 1921. The Silver Lake measurement was analyzed and accepted as a climatological record by the NWS in a peer-reviewed journal in 1953.

here is another article about the US and world record snowstorms...

if someone were to get 60 inches then it would be up there in terms of records.

suck my fluff and tell me how it tastes

my wife gets at least a 1/2 foot, sometimes more

fluff or snow? O.o

Sorry, i am confused not sure if you're talking about fordy's post above or the thread's subject :/

if fluff then smallish.

stfu marshal you know your fluff is like 2 inches. dont lie

my nick to the ladies is the polish sausage. Lack of size has never cum up in conversation and i did say sometimes more.

what was that movie that started out the kid had a chart where he was measuring his fluff every day.

that is what i would think marshal would do every day.

meh, upstate, we get 24 inches regularly and still go to work.

the floor boards of my jeep are worn out in 3 places

pfft a disappointment here - looking like i will be close to 1 ft :(

where u at ?

ewww more ny ppl!

were up to about a foot now. maybe slightly more. nowhere near 30" though

:P (Albany) We got 2 inches of blowing dust. :P

we got 33" so far!

1 ft max / disappointing

38" for my town!

38.. That's some fluff, man. Only thing worse is getting that much, living in the country and it drifts.

Shut up Donny.

We haven't gotten more than a foot of snow in total for the last two years. (central illinois) Last season we had 4 inches at most, this season we have only gotten an inch so far.

When I was in northern illinois, we got a lot more snow.
