It's what some parts of the UK look like at the moment:RedheadDane said:Hang on... that's a field?![]()
I thought it was... well... a lake.
Here's it's snowing a bit.
Bit of snow over this way:ferryman said:No snow (so far) on the Fife riviera of North North Queensferry but it has been cold and rainy and just miserable for months.
Was at the horse racing in Musselburgh today with the old boy and it was FREEZING!
But, it was their annual FREE (usually £20) entry day and I backed a few winners so all good, apart from the frostbite![]()
Yeah it is payback time...Blizzard forecast for me. 24"+ and 30-40 mph winds. Should be fun....NOT!djpbaltimore said:I knew the mid-atlantic was going to pay for the gorgeous weather we had for most of November and December. It looks like the bill is about to come due. 2 inches of snow here causes gridlock and hysteria. Hard to imagine what 2 feet will do. Good luck to anybody else (Jspear, etc) in the path of this behemoth.

Official word is 18" with 8 more expected before the darn thing finally leaves. Right now it's wrapping around back over us. There are drifts of at least 3 feet in my yard. I hate winter!!!

Thanks for making me realize how dumb my question was.Jspear said:We do have electricity, running water, heat, and internet...the essentials in life.BigMac said:How bad is it near you two compared to the overall scene? Do you have electricity?![]()
I'm 99% sure most every store around is closed. It's impossible to get out and drive. I'm hoping everyone was smart and stocked up on the important things.

''Do you have electricity?''
''No, I'm posting on CN thanks to my hamster-wheel generator.''
Anyway, nice to hear.
Based on snow totals should be more Virginia-DC-Baltimore-Philly-South Jersey than farther north.BullsFan22 said:Maybe it's too early to ask, plus we have to figure in how much it stretched, but which area is most affected by this storm? DC? NYC? Parts of New England?
