we got over 60 ft of snow in the Sierras in 2011. Now those were some storms......

Maybe you should replace the halo 4 with hookers....just sayin

I'm in a long standing committed relationship, sir.

I fear the power will soon fail upon us down here on the Long Island Sound. The flickers and brief power outages are becoming regular. If it can hold off for another 2 hours or so until I get sleepy, I would be very appreciative.

So, how's everyone coping? We in Montreal got about 20 cm (8 inches). In the burbs the roads are already clear, as are the sidewalks. In the city... well, in some the sidewalks are clear, but there's snow to haul away. Southern Ontario got more than we did, but the army wasn't called out, so I guess things were OK, although the 401 did get shut down around Brockville due to a pair of accidents. How's Boston? Maine? New Brunswick, Nova Scotia? News stories are promising up to a meter in Newfoundland. Just getting the skiis (cross-country) waxed up. Wax, extra blue - spread thin and with glider tips and tails. Hope to get out before the tracks get ruined by the clueless (those would be the people walking on the ski tracks).

We got 1 inch...lol
Did Boston get blown away??

With a kid who is shorter than the snow is deep, I sadly can't go out and play...Luckily I don't have to work but I hear the hospital is empty. The national guard has been seen helping digging ambulances out but mostly EMTs are just sitting in the hospitals because they can't get anywhere. My hubby is a large machine operator and was called in by the state to try to open up highway ramps with a loader but is still fighting the good fight against our 1/4mile long driveway...as I sit on the couch with coffee...

You know Mishele, around here, 1" isn't even a dusting. But then, we DO use snow tires and they DO make a huge difference in the ability to drive. I'm going to have to venture out with my camera and record the scene of devastation - but may have to travel far as it probably won't be anywhere around here. Pierre may have a different tale to tell, as the snow-clearing in the Plateau region has more to contend with - narrow streets, lots of cars parked, and really, no place to move the snow. We're babysitting my daughter's dog over the weekend, and despite being an old lady (12 years), she mustered up her enthusiasm in the fresh snow.

Sue, I think you have the right approach. Snowfalls should be dealt with from the couch with a cup of coffee in hand. That's just plain civilized.

I used to live in Atlanta, where an inch of snow was enough to wipe out the grocery store, and three inches was enough to wipe out the store before a single flake fell...and the weathermen made certain we all knew we were going to die.

I miss Georgia.

Y'all stay safe up there, ya hear? :heart:
