For my area, they have reduced the forecasted snowfall total to about a third of what they said it would be just last night  It's the typical nonsense from these jokers. | |||

Not so much as a new flake on the ground in Pittsburgh this morning! Yay! 1 to 3 later today. which is nothing for us but a reason for the road crews to filth up the streets, and a reason for me to bitch.  | |||

Still hanging in at a foot-plus, maybe a little less right here by the water if it changes over to rain/sleet after dark. Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

My friend Dave Estes died shoveling this kind of snow. A wet mix. I just cleared 40 feet of sidewalk , usually one or two shovels at a time. Wearing the bison-wool watch cap Brecaidra made for me. Very warm!  | |||

Freezing rain right now and very windy. They're saying temps up to 38 today so it should stay the same. A sloppy mess and not much more... God willing. _____________________________________________________ Sliced bread, the greatest thing since the 1911. | |||

I just went outside with the dogs & took the yardstick along. 11" here....so far, and still coming down pretty good. ------------------------------------------------ "It's hard to imagine a more stupid or dangerous way of making decisions, than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong."

For real? |
It's just snowing. It's winter. Watching traffic as I normally do on dayshift. No crowds. People driving slow. Schools closed so that helps. Not minority enough! | |||

While I agree with your sentiments relative to broadcast meteorology I will add that this storm is still happening even if the track of the storm has changed. The storm is heading more north and west, which means that Upstate NY will be getting the brunt of the storm now. Our predicted snow totals have gone from 6"-9" up to 8"-12" up to 12"-18" now up to 18"-24" or 18"-26". I'd say we are well equipped to handle it though, so it's probably better for us to get whacked than some of the more Southern areas. While I'm ready for spring to get hear, I'm also well prepared for this storm so bring it on. My enclosed cab tractor, heated and air conditioned, with front end loader and 8 foot wide snowblower will make quick work of this storm just like it has every other storm. “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” | |||

I work out of an office in NJ and they closed for today. I had no business yesterday, seemed everyone was already in blizzard mode. I sell tires, mostly truck and equipment, Friday was very busy with the guys that hadn't tired up for a storm. ________________________________ "Nature scares me" a quote by my friend Bob after a rough day at sea. | |||

Mother Nature failed today. mostly sleet mixed with some snow. Less then 3" of icy snowy crap. Broke out the flat metal shovel as to avoid braking the plastic snow shovel. _____________________________________ Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn.

coming down fairly heavy now. Looks like it shifted a bit west so my area is in the 6-12" band. Up toward Worcester and Springfield is getting pounded though. ________________________ | |||
