Default Who's in the Blizzard path of the Mid-Atlantic and N.E.?

Who's ready for one last go 'round (hopefully!) of some winter snow trailing/crawling. They say 4-8 inches where I am. Looking forward to throwing on the lights and going for a picture shoot in the night while its still snowing.

I'm supposed to be getting 30+ cm's here in my part of New Brunswick, Canada (south east). I just want it to go away, my bike is coming next week and I want to ride.

In line for 12"-18", we'll see. It has just started to spit frozen rain/icy slushy nastiness.

Only one ride on my Arctic Cat M6 this year. I'm jealous! We haven't had much good snow, this year. I would kill for one more storm this season.

Allegedly, we are in the 16"-24" belt, but we'll see...

The storm is just starting to pick up steam now.

Lake effect, BAH!, we only got around 2" last night in northern Cook County, came in waves, but was good for 7 hours of overtime.

I don't know if Columbus Ohio is in the zone but we had the smallest snow flakes fall all night from sun down til about 2am, like dust. You could blow off the car windshields. It's almost all gone now.

Second week of April it has snowed here about 75% of the time.

Baltimore didn't get the hammering that was being hyped, maybe 4" and a light crunchy layer of frozen sleet/rainy stuff. The folks just 50 miles north got hit pretty good. I tried to do doughnuts in the CRV this morning in an empty parking lot. Even with stability turned off, the nanny software wouldn't let me get a full rotation out of it before it cut back all power. I miss the WJ, full throttle power slides at will !

I'm in SE PA, but if this is a blizzard our standards have gotten low.

I agree. Barely 8" inches up here. I wish the weathermen still knew how to read the weather and would stay away from the models.

They just seem to be TV MILFs anymore. There are still some nerds though like Hurricane Schwartz though...

I never believe forecasts anymore. I'm not surprised that the storm was much weaker than the forecast. It think it's just a scheme to sell bread, eggs, milk and water. What shocks me is that people are still shocked when meteorologists are wrong. It's the only job where you can be wrong 50% of the time and not be fired.

Yeah, he's a happy little dude.
We're heading to FL next week for a few months... then back to the desert I think... then mountains.

And.....we got 17cm's, and it was loaded with water since it switched to rain at around 3am.
