NFT: Winter Storm Watch in effect......l

Tom [Giants fan] : 2/16/2021 6:22 pm
This is likely to go to a Winter Storm Warning by tomorrow morning for 5-10 inches of snow on Thursday. There could be a shift up or down slightly depending on exact track but this looks like a reasonable forecast. Will post any changes that may occur tomorrow in this thread. Thursday looks like a stay at home day if you can.

“Stay at Home Day”. 😔

Looking forward to some more shoveling. I actually enjoy it. The way I figure, I get 4 months off from mowing the lawn. So what’s better exercise than snow shoveling? I hate myself too much to actually exercise by choice, so being forced to do it is nice.
All kidding aside

I still love the snow too but this year it’s been a little much. Guess I can’t complain what the hell else is there to do anyway... and it’s good for the slopes up north.
It was nice to have a day in the mid-40s and sunny

to get a good melt on of all the previously accumulated snow today. Almost there boys, just over 1 month left of winter
I didn’t see a location in the OP

Does that mean it’s going to snow ...everywhere?
forecast here for northern Dutchess is about the same as  
Del Shofner : 2/16/2021 10:35 pm : link
Tom [Giants fan] mentioned - 4-8" on Thursday continuing into another 1-2" on Friday morning. Total 5-10".

It has been a snowy February, but March and Spring aren't far off. (Of course the way things are going that will probably bring locusts.)

This is not abnormal for February in the Northeast. What is abnormal and a real problem is what's happening in Texas.

Bill ... the best way to get through a colonoscopy is to relax and pretend that the doctor is Jim Henson and you are the cookie monster.

Had one last week. Drinking that stuff is the worst, I have a big problem getting it down. Directions said to start at 4. I started at 3 because I know it takes me longer to drink it. They always find polyps so I have to get one every year. LUCKY ME! Otherwise it's just a pain in the ass!
Tom I hope you enjoy it  
bhill410 : 2/17/2021 4:57 am : link
The good news here for those of us less enamored with the white stuff is that the ten day looks all to be in the 40s and above freezing so by March 1 we could be seeing our lawns again.

Pete in MD : 2/17/2021 12:00 pm : link
didn't really know her father growing up but we reconnected with his family around 10-ish years ago (he has passed.) Anyway, we come to find out that many people in the family suffer from FAP, a rare genetic disorder that causes numerous colon polyps and usually leads to cancer.

So she talks to her doctor, makes a colonoscopy appointment to make sure she doesn't have it too. I drive her there, sit in the waiting room. When it's over, they call me in and the tech says, "Everything went well and you're a very lucky man."

Isn't that the most inappropriate thing for someone to say who just saw your wife naked and put a camera in her but hole?!

UConn4523 : 2/17/2021 12:56 pm : link
surprisingly powerful running 100% on battery. It won't throw a foot of snow but if its 6" or under its fantastic. I don't like to let snow pile up anyway so I'll go out every 4-6" anyway just in case there's an emergency and we need to get the car out.
My Craftsman is 14 years old  
aimrocky : 2/17/2021 1:05 pm : link
and starting to show signs of age (the electric start takes about 10-20 tries before the engine turns over). I've been debating if I want to pick up an Ariens at the end of the season, or keep trying to ride the Craftsman until it goes.
I need to hit the supermarket tomorrow morning...

Went with a Deluxe 24, wanted the larger engine, auger, wheels, etc. It replaced a 1971 Ariens !

Unfortunately, clear liquids except alcohol, coffee and tea. I'm having some green jello right now, but it sucks without whipped cream
