Default Damn, Big Ole Snow Storm Has Arrived

Been coming down at a rate of an inch an hour, we got right around 5 or 6 inches since the sun came up. Now, we are smack dab in the middle of the line of rain versus snow, nothing but sleet and freezing rain until 6 or 7pm tonight. Then, later tonight, winds will gust between 30 and 40 mph.

Just great. Shiat I am bored.

I am concerned about losing power. Well, I am off to play Tampa Bay. Got a couple lanterns out of the garage, got plenty of grub after work, and oh yeah The Departed and another new release starring Kevin Costner, can't remember the name of it. Of course popcorn as well.

for safety's sake, be sure you blow out the lanterns before you put THAT one on. it's not safe to have those things going when you're asleep.

i'm hoping we don't get a lot...though we're looking at 4-6 inches allegedly here.

I would really love to see this storm burn itself out before it gets here...they are still predicting more than 2 feet over the next 48 hours...it's supposed to start tonight for us and end thurs. but the 35 mph winds should make even more of a mess.

The Guardian was a pretty decent movie. I think you will like it.

Sorry about the weather though. That does suck!

We are still getting pounded Curt, wind is real serious. Have about 8 inches on the ground, and we are east of the lakes, and as you know, they always pick up power when around the lake and afterwards is when it gets real nuts

Looks like between 12 and 24 inches here in the Capital District region of N.Y.
Heard a clip on the local radio station (the mighty 810 WGY)
from a highway superintendent who said he was getting his guys "pumped up"
for the impeding snowfall...after all...they've have had little work this winter, plowing... LOL!
Another report was from AAA on how to have your car ready for a winter storm...another "no brainer".
What the hell did people do year's ago when we really got a lot of snow???

Bring the clubs. Been playing at a new place called Carolina Club in Tamarac... very nice and fairly reasonable.

I've been slicing up the course like a cheap ham.
