Blizzard
So did anyone get hit by the blizzard? Mostly by central eastern states.
Lake Shore Drive this morning in Chicago. Looks like something out of a movie where the world is about to end. I can tell you, that shoveling was a bitch! Info on it here: http://www.myfoxchicago.com/dpp/news...-home-20110202

Re: Blizzard
Rochester NY here. All the hype amounted to 2-3 inches overnight, but it's supposed to keep snowing for the next four days (as usual wow rochester weather sucks).

Re: Blizzard
Yeah, if it's gonna snow for the next 4 days, you might possibly get what we get, so stay home if it starts to get really bad.

Re: Blizzard
Nice pics AJ, it's similar how it was in front of my house, but I took about 2 hours shoveling, so I can't take pics now.

Re: Blizzard
Getting hit by the Blizzard now. 40+ cm predicted over the next 24 hours for us, D: (That's about 16 inches for you damn Americans ).
For the record, I have seen worse. 6 or 7 years ago we were hit by a storm that dropped about 100+ cm over a single night (3.3+ feet), closing the city down for 3 days, and schools for the whole week. (Here's a pic from that event: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3245/...c7d19f13c8.jpg )

Re: Blizzard
It's hilarious now but oh man it was bad at the time lmao. There was too much snow to even shovel. There was no way out of the house for almost 2 days because the snow was up to near the top of the door. Even when we could get outside, only people with snowmobiles could drive around since there were no roads. After about 3 days we had roads, but you couldn't drive anywhere safely because the snowbanks at the side of the road were over 5 feet in most places, meaning you couldn't see around the turns XD

Re: Blizzard
For once, you guys have more snow than we do. Enjoy your Blizzard.
I still had school today... Only a nuclear assault is a good reason enough to close my school. I'm serious. |

Re: Blizzard
It's warm out here :3
But I actually like the snow so I kinda miss it. Yea these huge storms can be a pain in the ass but we only get to see them what like every 7-8 yrs. At least that's how it was in Jersey. I'd be making some snow tunnels or something lol On a side note this isn't from this storm but a friend in Jersey posted these a little while ago. This is what we do when we get snow up there XD
