East Coast Blizzard
 

I didn't see a thread yet about the blizzard that is currently blasting the East Coast. Is everyone ok?

I left New York this afternoon, heading home to Georgia. This evening, while driving through Virginia, the snow started getting crazy. My husband and I are currently stranded in Harrisonburg, VA. It's looking like we won't be able to leave until Sunday morning when the snow is supposed to stop.

Has anyone else tried to venture out? It's really dangerous out in the thick of it. There were cars in the ditch and pulled over to the side all along 81 South.

Soror I just read your fb status! JEEZ!!! It's supposed to snow in CT on sunday- 6in. That's all I've heard. Be safe!

It started snowing last night and is supposed to go all day. I looked out the window this morning and cars down the street in our alley are covered in about a foot of snow but our cars are not. The wind was apparently blowing our way. There is a three foot bank of snow on the opposite side of my car. Nice.

That's been upped to 10-14 inches. It's about time we had a blizzard. It's been a long time!

I flew out of Reagan National Thursday night. By Friday morning, flights going southeast were starting to be cancelled.

So far, I saw one snowflake on the way to the gym this morning. There is no place like home!

I'm staying inside. I really do need to grocery shop and finish getting my last few presents, but that looks like a no go until next week. It looks absolutely beautiful though! :)

I'm supposed to fly to Ohio tomorrow. No idea if that's going to happen or not.

So far we have about 10 inches in Northern VA. I am so glad my daughter got home from college yesterday afternoon before flakes started to fall. I-81 can be a mess in perfectly good weather....

I have not seen one plow on our street yet and being a street that a Metro bus uses, it's supposed to be a high priority. VDOT's snow removal capability makes me (almost but not really) wish I lived in the Northeast again. THEY know how to deal with snow.

It hasn't hit me yet actually.

I can't believe you're at 10 inches - all of our business students take finals on Saturday and they had already closed the university by 4:30 yesterday! I'm glad I was able to get out of there earlier in the week.

We're supposed to get 6-12 inches here, but it hasn't started yet, I think its moving up the coast a little more slowly than they expected.

I didn't realize until now that they closed the Metro too.

I think they've just reduced service to only the underground stations...so basically only within DC proper. And bus service is cancelled. Not sure how I plan to get to BWI...right now the plan involves Metro to Union Station and then Amtrak.

Stupid storm ruined my weekend plans. The Cape is supposed to get from 1-1.5 feet through Sunday.

i dont know if i believe the hype. it started snowing at like 1 when i got to work. im about to leave to hit Macy's (im regretting this already) so we'll see.

Yeah, we don't even have an inch yet. I don't think its going to be what was predicted...
