Get Ready for the Storm Northeast

[Knots]

workin toward 2 hours of lt wind and flurries, we got the dry slot in noreast Plymouth co. wish I could start to clean up now. I've got a feeling it would be futile.

Plow guy just did my driveway, which effectively made it a clean bowl. The wind is filling it back up again now.

Ah now in Central NY so you escaped this snow for the most part then. Orient Pt 28" so far and climbing I have around 20" but not over just yet. Nassau much less.

Yeah, I have a bunch of family in law enforcement down there. Lots of OT the next day or two. Be safe, I know you'll be warm!

Supposed to have at least another 2 hrs of accumulation. It's a decent snowfall but doesn't compare to 2013 storm.

Out the back door this morning

NECN (new england cable news) reaching for a story:
"There are these very large snow drifts, and they're very hard since they were pushed here by the plows"
Snow drift, really? Thought we called those snow banks?

SIL sent me a shot of her porch in Marblehead. Snow is up to the deck level of their gas BBQ, prolly from drifting. Looks like they are getting another big band of snow coming through right now.

Hunkered down yesterday. Gonna cook till we lose the oven. Should've bought
champagne for mimosas(rookie mistake!)

Rolled out some croissants around 6am.



It's happening!

I could use help in this house:


"So each of us would only have to be like a half man.....That sounds about right!"

Just waded out (33" inseam and up to my crotch - helluva way to start the day) to dig out the generator (you can see it peeking out). Wednesday is it's regular run cycle so I had to get it cleared. I'm raising that thing up on a pad this summer.

Good thing I'm working at home today 'cuz I ain't going anywhere else!

That's a t-pita (Total Pain in the A**) right there. I know how that feels. The 2013 storm (Nemo) dumped 33" on us but we were away so when I finally got home I had to wade up 120' of driveway through 30", plus drifts of 40" to get to the garage and the snow blower. Luckily we were skiing so I had the right clothes with me.

When I go into the garage there were little chips of sheet rock on my car. 20K later I have a new roof from the top plate up. Stay safe.
