Chef Jim Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Ok, I see there's some snow headed to WNY and I am too. How much are they really expecting? Hopefully I'll be able to make it in. The snow is a good thing seeing I'll be skiing. Now just as long as I don't french fry when I should pizza I'll have a good time.

Here in the Buffalo area we should see about 10 inches total. There will be high winds though that will reduce visibility. Good Luck!
ExiledInIllinois Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 At least from what they are forcasting: The low will go over NYS from west to eastern NY and retrograde back a little bit before heading off toward NE... It shouldn't be too bad for the Southern Tier... Probably worse for areas toward NYC... Still 6+ inches is not a drop in the bucket... But I would take, should be handled easily in WNY.

There will be high winds though that will reduce visibility. Good Luck! They're saying the blowing shouldn't be too bad because it'll be a wet snow. Supposed to be in the low to mid 30's.
Chef Jim Posted February 25, 2010 Author Posted February 25, 2010 Duude...you're gonna have a bad time. Nah, I know when to pizza and when to french fry. Now if I beer before pizza and french fry I'm gonna have a bad time.
FluffHead Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 You're coming to WNY for skiing? The mountains around here kind of suck... The Adirondacks and Vermont are where it's at on the East Coast

bills_fan Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 In my day Whiteface was considered world class. Still is. Whiteface and Mad River Glen are the two best ski areas on the East Coast, IMHO.
Chef Jim Posted February 25, 2010 Author Posted February 25, 2010 You're coming to WNY for skiing? The mountains around here kind of suck... The Adirondacks and Vermont are where it's at on the East Coast Yes I'm coming to WNY to ski? My dad lives in Ellicottville and is 81 and I come back every year to ski with him. But thanks for pointing me in the right direction of "where it's at".
CountDorkula Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Yes I'm coming to WNY to ski? My dad lives in Ellicottville and is 81 and I come back every year to ski with him. But thanks for pointing me in the right direction of "where it's at". Here ya go Chef looks like a nasty one coming... A major snowstorm is once again targeting the Northeast beginning Thursday, continuing into Friday. Here is what you need to know to prepare for this high-impact storm: THURSDAY AFTERNOON/NIGHT The storm will reach its peak intensity during this time. Travel impacts will be major, as the storm intensifies rapidly and sweeps toward New England. Major airport delays are likely in Boston (despite a wind-driven rain), New York, and Philadelphia. Delays will also likely "ripple" to Baltimore and Washington, D.C., despite lighter total accumulations expected there. High winds will spread up the New England coast, so expect downed limbs, wires, and power outages to become more widespread as the evening wears on. Winds will intensify on the "backside" of this deepening cyclone from northern New England through Upstate New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, northern Virginia, and West Virginia. Road travel will become dangerous, if not locally impossible Thursday night in these areas due to heavy, wind-driven snow.

See that's one of the reasons why I started that thread on Upstate NY over the weekend. Oh and BTW this is just great news. At least it says nothing about delays in Chicago where I'm connecting out of. If this storm makes me miss my Friday Fish Fry someone's gonna have a bad time.

EndZoneCrew Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Friday Fish Fry Beer battered or breaded?
Chef Jim Posted February 25, 2010 Author Posted February 25, 2010 Beer battered or breaded? Beer battered or nothing. I hate breaded fish fry. I used to have the best fish fry every Friday at my dad's restaurant when I was young. I'd have the first one of the night before we got busy. Fresh and crispy right out of the brand new grease. Yum!
stuckincincy Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 I saw that. That's nothing. Stop off in Cincy - it's Lent, and that means Fish Fry! http://www.local12.com/content/special_cov...Tbn_sNUUxA.cspx (ramp up the volume). Click on some of the other of Louis' vids - he's tops! Caldonia!

Chef Jim Posted February 25, 2010 Author Posted February 25, 2010 Did your Dad have a restaurant in E'ville? Which one? He wishes...and so do I. We actually looked at one there when I graduated from Culinary school. I think it's called Balloons now. It was the Crystal Palace or something back then. His place was in beautiful downtown Attica.

It was the Crystal Palace or something back then. His place was in beautiful downtown Attica. I know that place well. More bar than restaurant. E'ville could have used a good restaurant. Outside of EBC, I think the only "good food" type place is Dina's (which is very good, BTW). Dina's Website
