So, all you E-Coast USA peeps....

Is this winter storm coming this week or what?? I'm hoping so, want to take the X joy riding

Here we are suppose to get 8" or something like that....sure hope so.

Side note: I'm wondering who the first NY poster will be to say NO SNOW PLEASE haha.

The problem with meterologists is that they're wrong 90% of the time. And only half right the remaining 10% of the time. And it gets even worse when they try to forecast snow totals.

Assuming you live somewhere in the Mid-Atlantic, yes there will be "precip". Dont expect it to accumulate rapidly because I bet it'll start as rain, and snow has a hard time sticking on top of rain (unless it freezes.........and that would not be fun at all). As a random guess, I'm saying 5" of snow. Which for this region is like, the end of the world.

I think further North (CT, RI, MA, etc) we're supposed to get a good chunk of snow. I GUESS that would be OK...but I haven't been complaining at all, the snow blower has been sitting idle for months and it can continue to sit idle all winter as far as I'm concerned

I guess I'll be the first, we got 70" where I'm at in the last 7 days. This snow is crazy, 110" where I work. On Wednesday I drove through 12" of unplowed snow to get to work, it was nuts. Lucky I put snow tires on the X, it stuck like glue, even when I got forced into the snowbank I was able to drive right back out. If you want snow, come get it, I've got no where else to put it.

Please, use a gigantic snowblower and push it all onto the roads in Montgomery County, MD. They used SOOOOOO much salt and sand on the roads (for 2" of snow on Weds), that there's a sh*tload of it everywhere on the roads. It's so bad, there are actually lumps of salt everywhere on the roads. I'm always freakin paranoid that they'll cause scratches or get stuck somewhere in the underbody and cause corrosion. Really, the roads are a mess and it's disgusting.
