KD in CA Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 40 and rainy in Southern NJ 30 and snowing in CT and we're supposed to go to a wake in S. NJ today. Not sure making that drive through the snow/sleet/etc. is the best idea. Especially since it's all going to freeze tonight.
BLZFAN4LIFE Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 Sunny and 56 in Charlotte. - The reason I moved.
Live&DieBillsFootball Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 25 and a lot of snow in Hamburg. It's coming down pretty good and the winds should pick up to 40 MPH or so. Absolutely perfect weather to play the fish in the Ralph. I can picture them huddling around the sideline heater.
Tony P Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 Here in Rochester it's You! with a chance of You! tonight and a deep blanketing of You! tomorrow. Rubbing fingers together and playing the worlds tiniest violin just for you. Jack-ASS!! Thought you'd like to know that I finally made it to Ft Myers. 75 degrees with blue skies and a slight breeze off of the Gulf. I think I'll watch the Bills game this afternoon at the beach.
GoodBye Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 This is easily the worst event in terms of snow since I moved out here in 2006 - we've had at least one every year. WNYers take pride in their snowy winters, but at least NYSDOT and local towns/cities plows the roads for you. Here in the PNW, they don't. Instead, they just let it sit there until the sun or rain melts it (which ain't happening soon... our temps are colder than Buffalo right now). Add to that equation lots of hilly terrain and hurricane-force wind gusts and you have a recipe for disaster. Like this bus that almost fell onto I-5 in Downtown Seattle: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/loca...924_bus20m.html. Or this bus that got stuck on SR 520, a couple miles from my place: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/ABPub/200.../2008535869.jpg Here in Redmond we got 11" on Thursday and about another 2" tonight. Unless you have chains, you can't go anywhere. Luckily, my old ones fit my new car, and I've been able to get out and about. Yeah - you need chains, it's that bad. Yep, welcome to the NW! Exactly what they do here in Portland as well. I received about 9 inches of snow here at my house with a 1/4 inch of ice on top of that. I'm too waiting for the sun to come out and melt it and going stir crazy at the same time.
