Northeast US Snowstorm?

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Northeast US Snowstorm?

I heard New York got double digit inches, and most of the northeast is blanketed. It seems as though every time the Northeast gets hit, so does central Ohio. Last year we got hit by a big storm, and then a few days later New York was under double digits of inches of the white stuff. It hits us first, then it hits the eastern seaboard.

Not this time, its freaky.

Apparently the storm went right past Central Ohio, hitting only to the south of us. My sister in Cincinnati got hit badly, but we got none. My school is three miles to the south, and had at least half an inch on the ground, my home has none whatsoever. This winter isn't really a winter.

Anybody caught in this storm like Scott Kurtz is?

It was a classic Nor' easter. ... or maybe the "Mother of all Nor'easters" in modern memory. Record breaking snowfall of 26.9 inches in the heart of NYC itself.

Nor'easters actually barrel up to the northeast from the South. They pretty much follow the Appalachians which kind of acts as a steering track for the storm front as it moves up from the South. Depending on the size of the storm front, while southern Ohio may get hit, northern Ohio may get a free pass.

Yeah, which kinda sucks because we haven't had more than an inch of snow since, well, before winter started.

I saw snow flurries here just south of Atlanta on and off yesterday. It never stuck to the ground. (And I was hoping the roads would ice up enough to close the schools, but not enough to bring power lines.)

We're feeling the effects of this one all the way down in Florida! Temperatures dipped below freezing last night. The cold front is pretty damned wide... no snow here, though. Good thing, too; I left my boots back home in Jersey.

here in pittsburgh we got a few inches but most of that melted.

Blessed Be to all those that still dream of the flight to the stars.

as far as the winter it has been about the best one in my memory very little snow and only minor power failures at least i haven't spent two weeks in the dark like i did last winter thats as close to h*ll as you can get when all you have for heat in your room is an electric heater. i don't need one in my current house unlike that run-down trailer i lived in a year ago
