My arms are feeling it too. But I have to admit, I kind of enjoy the shoveling.

We\'ve accumulated 20-24" this past week. We\'ve also had some wicked wind causing tall drifts in my driveway, basically putting me back to where I was the night before. I wish I could afford a snowblower cause my arms are beatski. :strong:

id say all in all we have about 18 total...i think utica/syracuse/oswego got the worst of this 2nd storm, but didnt get much from the first.  we got a medium amount from both, about 8-10 from each.

nothing good came of this.

I got a 90 min. delay today, so I have to disagree! :)

I had to move my car to the other side of the street a 8am yesterday, then the cop informed me that my registration was expired since August.

:doh:

My reply was, I know, I am working on it. I have a court date for that ticket. I need to pay the registration before going to court or my defense is useless.

Somehow, everyone I talk to about his gives me the same answer, "I feel that you will end up in jail after going to court for this ticket." They might be right.

I just ate a bowl of orange juice mixed with snow. I\'m not kidding.


let me get this straight...you ATE a BOWL of ORANGE JUICE, mixed with SNOW?

like an orange flavored snow cone?

Yes. It\'s delicious. Don\'t use too much OJ or the snow will all melt. Stir well, eat with spoon. Be sure to use OJ that is not from concentrate. Oh, and try to find clean snow. This is best done during/just after snowfall.

Might I recomend walking to your favorite summer-time ice-cream stand/restraunt. If they are open, order some. Walk around all day, and all night, and be amazed that your ice cream will never melt.

You might get some strange looks.

We got another 7 or so and it\'s still snowing lightly. I am using snowshoes when I take my dog out. The plow guy is MIA. It\'s awesome. The only unfortunate thing is I have no food in my house. I just ate a bowl of orange juice mixed with snow. I\'m not kidding.

Hopefully the plow guy comes so I can go to the grocery store.

Damn 18" is the real deal. Noreaster? Lake effect? I havn\'t checked recently but I think I saw 8" for NH. Hope that doesn\'t stop you from getting your final outta the way Jocelyn.

weather.com storm warning for new hampsh

...WINTER STORM WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY MORNING...
SNOW WILL OVERSPREAD THE REGION LATE TONIGHT...AND WILL BECOME HEAVY AT TIMES SUNDAY MORNING. THE SNOW IS EXPECTED TO MIX WITH AN CHANGE TO SLEET IN THE AFTERNOON. THIS CHANGE COULD RESULT IN LOWER SNOWFALL TOTALS ACROSS THE REGION. BECAUSE THERE IS STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY REGARDING TOTAL SNOWFALL DUE TO THE SLEET...THE WINTER STORM WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT. THE POSSIBILITY EXISTS THAT 6 INCHES OF MORE OF SNOW MAY FALL THROUGH LATE SUNDAY NIGHT.

having th day off yesterday was great.  Now comes the shitty part though, digging out my car to get to work.

anice.

Dug my car out at Dobzmahal last night. Not that bad.

How much snow you get in New Milford?

how was the ride up the driveway?

Parked at the top but the plows plowed me in. Bald tires, not good.

Sledding down the driveway was SER. Got super speed, almost hit the tree numerous times, built a retainer wall and went through it into the woods.

We have gotten probably 5" so far, on top of the 2-3 that were still on ground from the last snow.

I live at a farm on a street that gets maybe 20 cars passing by a day (including the 10 or so people that live here and nearby). I\'m waiting for my friend to come home with the plow so we can take it out on a beer run. Despite being an absolute tank, my car wouldn\'t even make it out of the driveway (unpaved and at the top of a hill) without incident. At least I\'m not technically missing a Breakfast show any more.

Enjoy the weather if you can, drive safe if you must.

I hate people who have lived their whole life in this area and seem to forget how to drive in the snow. It is unreal. People, you live in New England, you should expect this. Same if you moved out to San Diego and bitched about the sun.

Heed this advice. This country is HUGE. Move if you hate the snow. I been breaking my dads balls about this since long ago. Hate the snow, move, personally, I love it. Only really weather that has the ability to stop everything.

It\'s hard to pack up and move when the whole family and job are in New Jersey.
