  1. That swath of I95 just isn't performing right now though. Now some people said 7 pm here so we'll see. These kinds of events were typical of my childhood. Always was more north and west. I didn't care as long as I got the day off, which in Catholic schools didn't take much. We'd be closed and I'd watch the poor public schoolers trudging off in boots to a delayed opening. i didn't know yet they were having more fun in school.....
  2. I'll be pleasantly surprised to see 4. NW has already got that. It's cold enough here, we just aren't getting banding. Not sure if it is getting here or not. In a way I'm glad as my wife is at the hospital visiting her sister who had a stroke. It's been tough.
  3. Nothing like a walk in the snow with the mutt. I always remember Mark Twain; if you take in a stray dog and it prospers, it will remain loyal. This is the chief difference between dogs and people.......
  4. We dads tend to worry even if our "kids" are young adults. But the pandemic kept her cohort from learning to drive early and she was a bit delayed, so never got that comfortable and is still shakey.
  5. My daughter is an inexperienced driver and I'm tryin to convince her not to drive to Manalapan because its going to get worse. Any break will make a liar out of me....I told. her tomorrow would be better it won't be snowing and the roads will be plowed and salted. I'm getting the side eye....
  6. But it is still kinda lame after all the hype. Really, 2-4 is kind of a nothingburger. It'll look nice for a bit at least. Hope it's at least a but better than that. To me, anything under 5 is just a nuisance event. Can't hide my disappointment. But it's better than nothing. Some years we don't even see that.
  7. And they could always be right. It's how it goes. Last year we overperformed for a change in our area. We'll see. I'm salted to my wit's end out here....Menlo mall is a sheen of blue tinted road salt, which is all over my shoes....
  8. So....a storm is progged. It looks like its waffling. At some point it hones in on a moderate event. As we get closer higher totals get thrown about. As showtime arrives, things don't go quite as planned and totals get cut back. Stop me if you have heard this before.
  9. Thanks for posting. Seems to be tak of lesser amounts today but I don't see a real change. looks like a typical snow event to me. Someone is bound to get a little more or less. But I think around 4-5 is a good call. Someone I saw somewhere had a graphic from the midwest; storms are categorized as to how many milks, breads, or eggs you need to hoard...
  10. Question for anyone; whenever I go to this site on my phone, I get a Tapatalk popup that I cannot get rid of, and hence cannot follow the site from a phone. Anyone who has any ideas how to rid myself of this? Showed it to my techie nephew and he was clueless.
  11. Have you seen the way people drive anymore? Anything is a state of emergency these days. Stopped into a Wegman's ( a store I don't like by the way; overpriced, always low stock ) and the milks shelves were bare; worse, you could see stacks of it in storage but they wouldn't put it out because it was after 9 pm.
  12. At the time we were told 94 was a true ice storm, which are not common here, but more so in places like Oklahoma and KS; inches of ice, which I have never seen again. Usually we get a glaze and it melts off later in the day, or it starts as rain and sudden drop in temps causes ice buildup, but nothing like 94. Will be nice to see an event this Sunday/Monday. Maybe it overperforms for a few as last Feb did. We'll see.
