11 o'clock news said anywhere from 18-24", and up to 30" some places on LI and up north. I knew we should have bought that snow blower...

Tom, you people along the coast are going to get cranked by this one....Usually, up here in central Mass we get the big snow accumulation, but this time it's your turn. Hopefully you won't get the real big tides..... Good luck and silicone up the snowblower chute....WJ

I would like it much better if I had something to drive in it. All my buddies have lifted Bronco's, so it'll be fun tonight and tomorrow especially once it starts drifting

It's been dead here in Central PA for about a half hour. We didn't get a whole lot. I'm guess though that the worst is yet to come

I went by the beach a little while ago and had the feeling of "it's coming". Moved all the vehicles around this morning and the generator is ready in case the power goes out and the "monster truck" has a full tank of gas. Bring it on!

Yeah, it's ridiculous. Not because there's all that much yet, but because the ground is so cold that it stuck right away.

Did you know that if you creep up a hill at 2-3mph in 4th at 4500rpm your ABS Inop light will come on?? Goes off after you shut the car down, I kept sliding backwards unless I spun the wheels even more. I like having too much power for the snow so long as its not snowing . Now I'm stranded at a friend's house in Peekskill, hahaha

When I talked to my buddy driving through CT around 2 or 3 o clock today they already had 2-3 inches. It didn't start snowing here until around 4:30, it came down hard for an hour and now it's slowing down. We've got maybe 2 inches now. In the morning I bet I'll wake up and we'll have like a foot and a half. Clean up is a pain in the ***..

The news just said that they declared a state of emergency here in Jersey...they want everyone off of the roads. They're talkin about 14 to 18". My back is already starting to ache and I haven't even picked up the shovel yet!
