OT: Weekend snowstorm - historic blizzzard
- Thread starter Mikemarc
- Start date
We have more down here in South Wall/Allenwood. We are having a snow shoveling party at midnight. Ed Wong will be here spinning tunes. You are welcome to come.
The mountain is fully opened. Great coverage on and off piste. Snow was perfect today since it was totally groomed but still a little soft. This storm is only going to make conditions better. I would even think Mountain Creek and Poconos will benefit. Funny thing on the maps Numbers and Bac posted is that Hunter is in the dark spot to get another 16+. But the rest of the Catskill area not as much.
If we only get 6" I'll volunteer to help clean out other board members' driveways18z RGEM fwiw the last relevant run before the storm goes in earnest
still holding as least snowiest
Went for a run and is now sticking everywhere in Pway, this is Quibbletown Park

Low 70's and not a cloud in the sky out here. There is an inverse relationship between the coasts weather in the winter.
If it takes say 4 or more hours to clear your sidewalks/ driveway and/or you need to attend to kids home from school, then there are legitimate reasons not to work.
This is true. I’m working from home tomorrow from 7am-6pm with a 7 year old and a 4 year old. When am I supposed to do cleanup. It’s happening during daytime hours
Just saying it’s nice to have another option and not get docked. We didn’t even have the option of taking PTO at the time.

It's Allen and Bubenick!
As of 5 pm, we have 1.5" of new snow, so 1" the last hour and we're still at 31F. All roads now covered, as expected.
How about bingo? Is it cancelled? They announced that with late shifts at businesses. Lehn and Fink 3rd shift. Always listened attentively when they went Green Brook Edison Highland Park and then Hillsborough.
you are definitely at least an inch ahead of me at least...I think you will have 3-4 more inches than imby
In Metuchen and just realize that there doesn't appear to be any location information for posters, like there was on the old site, unless I'm missing it. I can see why it's not that big of a deal here, but people get shunned if they don't have the location info in their avatar on the weather boards, lol. He @DJ Spanky - is it possible to have a location that appears in one's avatar or at least on the profile? TIA.
i can hear the music playing right now for the local community announcements

I wish there were more saved audio on youtube
my brother did tape some stuff but I think they are too warped to be saved
Back in the '90's when there was no way to work remotely. We got snowed in while at work and the company put us all up in a motel so that we could get back to work in the morning. I remember riding in the bed of a pickup truck to some holiday inn off rt 1 in Edison. I thought I'd get frostbite on my ears from the trip.
A shame. That and not having tapes of the 1975-76 Rutgers basketball games from NJN.
Yup. Way different world without technology. Stayed in hotels but also did the sleeping bag on the office floor a bunch. I like the new way better!
Yeah, should be a decent east to west gradient, although as you know, sometimes it's where the best bands set up and that could still be NW of me, including you, so ya never know...
Lloyd Lindsey Young now that brings back memory's, that guy was great. He made listening to the weather fun.Who needs Jim Cantore with Thundersnow? We had Lloyd Lindsay Young first!
With respect to total gridlock this storm and Nov-2018 are tops for me, as both had a major surprise component and the timing was perfect: people went to work like it was a normal day with expectations of maybe a couple of inches of snow and then boom, heavy snowfall during the middle of the day - and then the group stupidity of sending everyone home at the same time creating a mess on the roads. Jan-87 I only had to go from the eng'g building on Busch to our house 1/2 mile away on Orris Ave in P'way, but even that took an hour and my roommate and I must've gotten out 4-5X to help stuck people. For Nov-18, with technology on my side, I knew before most how bad it was about to be and left work around 1 pm and it only took an extra 10 min (on a normal day my commute was 15 min).
This was a couple days before the Giants Super Bowl in Pasadena. We barely beat the storm flying out of Newark. Friends who were coming on a later flight didn’t make until the night before the game.
not impressed with whats out there now...been sticking for 2 hours but barely getting near an inch on grass and maybe half inch on paved
its very wet
November 18 was no joke. Spooked Gov. Murphy into brining anything and everything going forward. Rumor was that he never brined a TG turkey before that storm, but he does now or directs his chef to do it.
Dunno - pretty impressive in No. Plfd so far. Conditions really deteriorated over the past hour. Everything covered and accumulating aggressively.
not that its useful at this point but good lord what the **** 18z gfs...cuts way back nw and would be just 8-12 storm northwest of 95 with only 4-6 far NW
