We got a room at the local Mohegan Sun Casino's new hotel, which is 2 miles from the hospital, should be a good time!

I'M READY, weather the Pellet Stove is installed or not !
I'll be out somewhere in one of our JEEPS !!!!! and @ "Motorama" in Harrisburg on Saturday.
 
I'm sitting on sunny beach in Mexico. Stove is off, heat turned down and my neighbor is watching the house. Am I ready? You bet.
 
Here in Connecticut we are in the 8 to 12 mark. So snow thrower is gassed up. Gnna do my 7 day cleaning Tommow on the Harman .i actually don't mind it growing up in New England . Just hope everybody is safe.
 
The initial forecast (based on European model) was 18" here in central PA yesterday @ noon, and by last night they had us down to 1-3".......
 
Bonesy, yu and the wife got style!
lol, more like she's super paranoid we wont be able to make the 45 minute trip on I81 to the hospital if she goes in labor! so I figure if we're staying in a hotel, might as well be at the casino !

Euro just ran now, shows storm more northwest, expect some forecast totals to go up in PA, dividing line for heavy rain/mix is SE of the I95 corridor, heavy snow northwest of I95. 12-18" possible in some areas. I follow the Eastern PA Weather Authority.
 
Weather channel here says light snow on friday! Your screenshot shows 6-12" for my area YIkes !!! What gives?

JOHN I just talked to your neighbor. He said your heat went off and the whole house froze up. Even the toilets froze and exploded !!! Not to worry though, im sure you are insured.:p

sorry, for reference I'm a few hundred miles north of your map......frozen
You have my sympathy. I sometimes wonder what I am doing, here in New England, I'm somewhat cold intolerant due to Raynaud's syndrome. I can't imagine what it is like living where you do.
 
Yes, ALWAYS.
