Snow on the East Coast.

    13 inches at 1 pm, 26 inches by 9 pm. I was curious so every time I went to the door, I stuck a ruler in the snow to see the totals.

    UGHHH!

    That's a lot of damn snow.
    Funny thing is every time I check the seven day forecast on my phone, every day in the next week has a high temp of above 32.
    Which is a good thing. Last year, here in Chicago, it would snow a foot and then the next week would be a deep freeze. Then it would snow a foot, and another deep freeze. By the middle of winter we had what felt like 45 feet of snow on the ground. Hahaha

    And lets not forget the weather idiots on cable.

    Chet: Lets go to Mary on the street. Mary can you hear me?
    Mary: YES CHET I CAN HEAR YOU!
    Chet: How are things on the street.
    Mary: Well Chet, as I look North I see nothing but snow.
    Chet: Amazing
    Mary: Even more amazing is when I look South, again I see nothing but snow.
    Chet: Fascinating Mary, keep up the good work!

    JIM: We're at JFK airport and trying to get the scoop on why no flights are taking place.
    Mike supervisor from JFK: You dumbass have you seen how much snow is out there?
    Jim (speaking to the newsdesk): Well there you have it a News 4 storm watch exclusive.
    Chris (in the studio): Thanks for all your in-depth reporting and now we turn to Rick who is live at the supermarket looking for bread and milk.

    Mary: YES CHET I AM HERE!
    Chet: Mary what else can you give us on the conditions on the street?
    Mary: Well Chet, if you look closely, when I reach down and pick up the snow, my hands actually get cold. Back to you Chet in the studio.
    Chet: Thanks Mary.

    Now we switch to FOX and assume the Fox viewing position.
    Eddie: It's cold out.
    Jeff: Any idea when the snow might stop?
    Mike: Not sure, let me check my Doppler 10,000 for the latest.
    Jeff: Great
    Mike: Doppler 10,000 reports the snow has tapered off.
    Eddie: Um your doppler is way off, it's god damn snowing and never ending.
    Jeff: Thanks for the report guys. There you have, Fox is your source for exclusive snowpacolypse 2016 coverage not seen anywhere else..

    Mary:One model is showing anywhere between 10-15 inches of snow.
    Our other model is showing frogs and locusts.
    Chet: Just goes to show you, anything can happen.
    Mary: That's correct Chet.

    Ralph: Our weather models are showing 80 and sunny for Sunday. The snow should melt away in five minutes.
    Kent: Are you sure?
    Ralph: The models are never wrong.
    Kent: Well there you have it, an ABC weather desk exclusive.
    Ralph: Um Chester.
    Kent: Yes Harry.
    Ralph: Those models were wrong. I was reading the ones dated July 23, not January 23.

    Xavier, true story.

    The local news here in Chicago has a young weather lady, Cheryl Scott(google her and take a look).

    There is not a man here in the city, between the ages of 16-105, who doesn't plan his afternoon around watching the weather.

    Hahahahahahaha!!!!!

    The National Weather Service has just announced.

    That your best bet is to use a shovel.

    Just passing on the information I got.
    Hope it helps.

    The weather people are classic.
    Storms like this? They talk and act like fools.

    Mary: Hey Chet?
    Chet: Yes Mary
    Mary: On the way here our car was delayed by more than 3 hours.
    Chet: Sorry to hear.
    Mary: Well we called the governor to find out what the delay was all about.
    Chet: Go on
    Mary: Well the governor informed us that the delay was due to the 2 feet of snow on the ground.
    Chet: So what you are saying is...Snow can actually cause traffic to slow down.
    Mary: That's exactly what I am saying Chet!
    Chet: Fascinating!

    Apparently NYC missed the record by .1 of an inch.
    So it was the #2 snowfall in a day ever or something.

    spent two hours straight (probably should have taken a break) shoveling/digging out my car from the snow. We probably got about 2 feet. Our parking lot int he development is a mess. Went to the grocery store which is a mile or two away. After i got out of the development the main road was pretty good.

    best birthday present I ever got.

    took us a few hours, but driveway is all clear. My back is fine, but the forearms are all cramped because you have to constantly squeeze the handles to keep clutch in and the auger engaged.

    I would say we had at least 24". It was deeper than the front scoop of the blower.
