PIK 95 2 Posted February 8, 2013 The calm before the storm. I'm surprised it hasn't started yet. That's probably going to keep our numbers down in R.I. but be worse for Boston West. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PIK 95 2 Posted February 8, 2013 Just started snowing outside of providence, ri I'm in Cranston. The ground is now covered and it's already snowing like a mofo. It's very fine snow too. My previous post was a half hour ago and it went from no snow to street covered already. Oh boy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PIK 95 2 Posted February 9, 2013 So we played an epic neighborhood hockey game on my patio and built snow walls around it with the five inches or so we had early. I have a ton of tree damage now. I am pretty sure one will fall on my house soon. We had a bunch of lightning about an hour ago and crazy wind all night. I can't believe I still have power. We probably have close to twenty inches so far. Monster storm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CantTouchThis 23 Posted February 9, 2013 Parts of Long Island and central CT already reporting 2+ feet That's the same area that had thunder snow. Winds have been gusting around 80 in some areas. Damn man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CantTouchThis 23 Posted February 9, 2013 A town in central CT reported 6 inches of snow in ONE HOUR That only happens in mountains and maybe lake effect, and it's incredibly rare. And 500k without power and growing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TD Ryan2 316 Posted February 9, 2013 Just woke up - I still have power. But holy god that wind was ferocious. It is still howling but not as bad as overnight. Lots of woods outside my house - lots if ice/snow encrusted forest - it will look pretty cool once this passes. If I have a chance I'll take photos and post them.

tikigods 76 Posted February 9, 2013 A town in central CT reported 6 inches of snow in ONE HOUR That only happens in mountains and maybe lake effect, and it's incredibly rare. And 500k without power and growing. We lucked out in Southern NH. The power company said this morning that any winds over 40mph keep them from going up poles to fix down lines. Some people may be out of power for a day or two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edjr 6,898 Posted February 9, 2013 MBTA (public transportation) has announced they won't reopen till Monday. Bruins have a game at 7 tonight. I'm sure that will be canceled?

Finbabble Garp 1 Posted February 9, 2013 Photoshopped. Whole thing is lamestream liberal media hokum. I know this, because I have it on good authority that the "globe" is "warming," which means, and stop me if I'm wrong here, no more snow. Can't be snowstorming of the century, and be global warming! Hah! So either we're right about global warming being liberal BS, or we're right about the liberal media conspiracy, or both! Logic one-oh-one liberal motherhumpers. Gather round me, republican brahs. Now slap it high! Aw, the sweet smell of ownage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Finbabble Garp 1 Posted February 9, 2013 Thank the Christian God that I was born a republican, and have been a republican my whole life. I'd hate to look the fool like you ivory tower numbskulls right about now. Trickle down. Lincoln was a traitor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snow like this suxor (except for kids and photos). But I have no desire to be in FLA in July or in Tornado alley. I just got in from rnd 4 of shoveling. In done!
