The weathermen here are saying it's going to stall out over the Atlantic and dump snow on us at the rate of about 3 to 4 inches per hour during the height of the storm, some are now calling for up to three feet of snow in Boston, I'm a bit further south, we're "only" getting 24 to 30 inches.
Going to be an interesting couple of days.
Got all the essentials yesterday; water, milk, bread and eggs so I can make french toast for two days.
Why people buy those particular items was and is a mystery to me.
People here get spooked when it snows, they think back to the famous blizzard of 1978 where stores were closed for several days, roads were impossible to travel on and cars were stranded on our major roadway called route 128.
People fail to take into account that it was about 35 years ago and snow removal technology has changed a lot since then, but all you need to do around here to cause a panic is call for snow, better yet a blizzard.
They always show some clambrain on the news during the non stop around the clock coverage of the storm who ventures out for a stroll to soak it all in, said person always says "Wow, this is GREAT!!..........I love weather like this"......:rolleyes2: and the person is dressed like they are part of an expedition to the north pole.
They showed a news report last night of a near riot at a supermarket, I guess they ran out of milk and bread, they showed one lady's shopping carriage with enough food to feed the Russian army for a week, is that really necessary?
I should have bought a grocery store..............
