20+ inches would shut my city down for a WEEK, at least! Nope, us south of the Mason-Dixon line just hear the word *snow* and bread, milk, eggs, and toilet paper fly off the shelves like there's no tomorrow.

We were originally supposed to get snow today.

It's now 75 degrees outside. I think our meteorologists are on crack.

We expect 7 inches of snow in NYC. You will probably get more in the suburbs.

We've got at least 3" here in Saugerties, NY (bout 90 miles north of NYC). And it's still coming down. Yay...

Yup, this was the storm that wasn't. 4-8" forecast; I think NYC ended up with 1" and CT got around 3".

It's when they forecast just 1/2" of snow that you should start to worry.

Tom, are you okay?


It is supposed to snow about 3 inches here tonight, which means everyone will be driving like maniacs because "i got 4 wheel drive, so f*ck it"


seriously, what good is 4x4 if you can barely freaking drive on road? I hope these people aren't sreious offroaders, they'd tip over and get hurt.

There's a device that weather reporters can use to tell easily what the current weather is. It's called a "window". The local weather reporters really need to invest in these devices.

"It's not snowing," I hear on my car radio as I drive to the train station in thickly falling snow...

Hope you're ok, Tom. Stay warm.

i just would like to point out three things.

1.) I LIVE IN LAS VEGAS. ITS THE DESERT.

2.) i got my poor Jetta stuck in the snow on Sunday trying to go skiing up at one of the mountains about 45 minutes away. Apparently, the news didn't feel like telling anyone that Mt. Charleston was getting a huge snowstorm. So huge that the had to shut the road down half way up to the ski hill. The road I happened to have the Jetta stuck on.

and 3.) It continued to be 30 degrees here in Vegas again today, with a nice thunder and lightening storm that had instead of rain falling, snow.

I thought I moved out of New York to get away from this weather??

But not to boast, or even really jinx myself, but its said to be in the high 70's low 80's this weekend.
