Snowmageddon!

[TheCommandTent]

We didn't get nearly as much as they said we would in my area (not that I'm complaining) with the wind blow and drifting the snow it is hard to tell exactly but we got some where in the 7-9 inch range.

Hope the rest of you guys stay safe and report in when you can. 

I think it is still snowing in parts of New England so they aren't out of the woods yet.  The rest of us still have the high winds to worry about as well.

I just want to list all the grogs who were affected so we make sure we get an update from them all when they are able.

Frakk Yeah!
-Power just came back on! I really really REALLY hope it stays. The branches around here are all pointed down with heavy snow. The whole thing is quite beautiful to see despite the threat of more outages. I'll try to put up some pix later when I've caught up with getting the house back in order. Glad to hear the rest of you are good, excepting Mrs' W8's car  :( and Gus' illness  :(.

Great news Stagger!  Since we only got about 8in here the strong wind has blown most of the snow off the branches but the wind is still worrisome.

The travel ban is still in effect.  Anyone caught driving on any road will be subject up to 1 year in jail and a $500 fine.

OK, that's a bit extreme.

I don't know about that.  I remember everything in Nova Scotia looking that way.
Nice to see you've got you grandad out working.

Been out to shovel once already but the snow and wind seem to have picked up again. Damn but I wish I had 40 Cent's snowblaster!

Glad to hear that your wife is ok after her mishap W8taminute.
