Just finished loading the wood rack, tarped a backup pile and got the generator all fueled up and ready to go and got out the snow shovels. Good luck to all you others on the east coast in the path of this storm!
 
Just started snowing here about 90 minutes ago - could get anywhere from 1-2 feet. Filled the woodbox (stacked to the ceiling!) and have a backup pile waiting under the deck. Tomorrow I'll be busy sledding with the kids, not hauling wood! Stay safe everyone.
 
Good luck to all of you. Those that prepared ahead, please be a safe harbor for others.

Wood is dry, fire is hot and the snowblower is ready. Didn't get my gas cans filled, but about 7 gallons of gas for the genny. Bring it.
 
Expected to start after midnight. Supposed to get every variety of winter precipitation possible. Snowblower is still fueled from last weeks snows.
 
Have plenty of dry wood outside the door. Snowblower mounted on the tractor, and picked up this today just in case...

Taking the train into NYC tomorrow. Did it last week as well. Last time was 20 years ago.
 
I did get to bring is some more Ash, clear the roof as good as I could, then off to work....tomorrow at first light, bring in some (a lot) of Oak....hopefully it won't hit here till I'm done
 
Got a call this morning at 0430 to stay home. Surprised me since they tell me I'm "essential personnel". Got quite a but here and it is still coming down hard. I'm finding it very " essential" to sit here in the basement with my stove and coffee in the man chair and cruise the net on how to throw myself deeper into the firewood obsession. Cheers and stay warm!
 
Been snowin here since about 0630...Couple inches so far, but later today they're talkin 2 - 3 inches PER HOUR.
Snowblower full & sittin in the shed, aimed at the driveway. Bring it.

Can't get a good measure because of the drifting but we got bombed. Round two is supposed to be here around three pm.
 
We are getting hit pretty good here on LI. I'm at work though.
 
I have power still but I don't know for how long. Driving home yesterday I saw several downed trees laying against the power lines from the last ice storm. Just a matter of time. I saw on the news how they already brought in a ton of out of state lineman crews
 
wahoo here in wisconsin we call that a "dusting" of snow. Your expected to be in for work and NOT be late.
