Marv's Neighbor Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 will the weatherman be right ----6 to 10 one guy says 10 - 15 , hope we get 0 255491[/snapback] Get a grip man! If this was August, that would be news.
R. Rich Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Well, it's just beginning to snow here in the Baltimore area and yet ALL the schools in the area were closed today. In fact, they've been closed for the past 3 school days! Unbelievable. There may have been 3 or 4 inches of snow that fell here, but they closed schools. Wimps. They wouldn't survive a minute of a lake effect winter like the ones I grew up in back in Erie.
njsue Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Hope everyone that is in the areas of this Noreaster stays safe.
BillsNYC Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Last week we had a storm that dropped 4 inches on us over 12 hours. With 2 inches on the ground, the news spent the first 5 MINUTES talking about the snow. We live in the NORTH EAST people! Last night, they opened with today's snow. The weather lady talked for 2 minutes about the snow and how the storm system was shaping up...BUT...would NOT tell how much was expected, in order to learn that, you had to wait til the END of the program....If it was that important, wouldn't you think they'd tell us at the start? This storm is being SO over-hyped by the media for ratings it's disgusting.
dib Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 In So. Fla. the weather-readers couldnt find their @ss with both hands. Storms predicted this week-end so I invest in a bag of turf-s (Has to be thoroughly watered in) spread it over front and back yards in reckless anticiaption. needless to say, no rain.
Guest BackInDaDay Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Oh those poor new jersey beaches just torn up by so much errosion. 255496[/snapback] I was at Pt. Pleasant beach yesterday ( behind Jenkison's aquarium) for a Polar Bear type fund-raiser. Beautiful weather, but there did seem to be lot less beach.

Get you hooked to watch the entire newscast.
R. Rich Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Were they closed last week for February recess or snow. 255578[/snapback] The 'winter storm' (a whopping 3-5 inches or so) closed the schools last Thursday and Friday, as well as today. No wonder my wife is always complaining about the people her store hires not being able to give out correct change to the customers. I guess they had a snow day on "correct change" day in math class.
njsue Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 They are calling for 6-12 inches. not so bad. Just as long as it doesnt get mixed with ice.
Hammered a Lot Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Yesterday at Buddy "The Woder" dogs house it was sunny and 60 degrees which put a hurt on what little snow we have. We are supposed to get pounded with 2" of snow tonight.

BillsNYC Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Its been snowing here for 2 hours and we've been pounded with an inch!! OH THE HUMANITY!!
ExiledInIllinois Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Its been snowing here for 2 hours and we've been pounded with an inch!! OH THE HUMANITY!! 256001[/snapback] .5 inch and hour is nothing to sneeze at if it keeps up for 3 days!
stevestojan Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 How in the hell does this have 16 replies? It's february 28th for !@#$ sake. If it was 70 and sunny, it might be thread worthy! That being said, it's 77 and sunny here today. You sound like a bunch of NYCer's... freaking out from a little snow.
JarHeadJim Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Have fun, I just mowed my lawn for the 2nd thim this year
5THXIT Posted March 1, 2005 Posted March 1, 2005 Sorry Gang, its 65 and sunny in San Diego. The rains have finally left. These morons out here have no idea how to drive in bad weather; thats one thing I did learn in my years in Buffalo. Go Bills!
