Bumping the thread. NYC/tristate area is expected to get around 24" of snow tonight going into tomorrow.

Stay safe and follow the proper precautions. My job is letting us out early today and canceled everything tomorrow, so its going to be a lot of gaming. Stay safe!

Yeah...my sister/family live out in Hingham Ma...so they're in for it big time.

Stay safe NG.com bro's and ho's. It's going to be a nasty one for sure.

I was going to say that here in the central Illinois...this has actually been a pretty mild winter so far. Had 4-5 days in the low 50's since Nov, light snowfall here and there and that two week cold snap a few weeks ago. So far...typical "winter" really...nothing like last year...

One more month so go in my "shit-months" group. Nov-Feb is pretty much shit around here and we're almost 75% done with it already...

I sincerely thought of getting some last minute stuff, but its not worth the $300 ticket. Snow is coming down pretty hard bit luckily no outages here yet.

SNOWPOCALYPSE 2015. Mother nature's on the rag and she's wearing 24" strap-on made of ice!

Just hoping the power holds out. Suppose to be a lot of snow dumped overnight. It's going pretty good, but it's the light stuff, something tell me we're going to wake up to areas with 5 inches from wind blow and drifts well over 3 feet.

Did you get the ice coating yesterday? We did down south, holy shit. It was freaking dangerous going home. Everything was a thin sheet of ice...

52ºF here in Madrid today, sunny, no clouds.

Last week it snowed like 1cm. First and last snow in the year. Kinda sad but seeing the big snowfalls you guys get where you live... well, maybe it's better this way.

5 foot snow drifts at the end of my driveway...took me an hour to shovel the 4 car driveway. I'll be out there every few hour shoveling so it doesn't get out of hand. I'm totally buying a snow blower next season.

Not much you can do with 5' drifts...especially if the hard freeze kicks in and the shit is concrete. OR...if the winds kick up and this stuff is powder, it's also pointless because it just throws it all over the place.

Snowfall hasn't been as bad as they predicted. About a 1ft so far. The snow being dry and powder, with the high winds has been a blessing.

I found this hilarious as it never happens. Mother Nature giving me a break or aerodynamics?

I have 4ft drifts at the front of the house as usual.
