NWS Will be issuing Blizzard Watches and Warning shortly. Accuweather has upped snowfall potential for Southern New England areas to 12-24", with possible 60 mph gusts, and thunder and lightning.

Day after tomarrow?? Maybe.........

Will see , but it looks good.

MountainMan, what is thundersnow?  Here is the forecast for here:

The center of the clipper is moving quickly into northern Pennsylvania, providing plenty of moisture across the entire state. We are now seeing more snow showers developing in the Chesapeake Bay area. This is a sign of a strengthening coastal storm that will develop this afternoon. This will set up an easterly fetch, pushing more moisture onto the east coast. Eastern Pennsylvania, the Delmarva Peninsula, and New Jersey are still set to receive substantial snowfall this afternoon. Central Pennsylvania could see 8-14" by tomorrow morning. In far western PA accumulations will be lower, ranging from 5-9" in the Pittsburgh area. Winds will increase from the north overnight to set the stage for a blustery Sunday. Winds sustained at 20-30 mph with gusts in the 40's will cause blowing snow and drifting, not to mention sub-zero wind chills.

I have been out with the "Orange Crunch" just a little to try it out.  It's just the best machine for me.  I love it. 

For me whenever I get the chance I prefer for the storm to end before I go out and clean it all up.  Then when I am done I am totally done.....

Okay Chris.  I was just wondering if the Toro would be able to handle it all. Guess I'll find out.

Snow flurries just starting here... 6 degrees...


Dave...

Im down to 5, with moderate snow, amybe a half inch so far.

Well , I guess we are all in the same boat , we are supposed to get hit with this blizzard tomorrow and it's carring through to Monday.

Sure would be nice to see some pic's of blowers in action, i've posted a few previously, but would like to see what other members here are going through.

Cheers

In New Jersey we are approaching the 3 inch mark with temperature of 12 degrees.  Snow is getting pretty heavy. 

Based on the weather maps the intense stuff is still south of us.  This one is for real.

MM, you guys are going to get blasted, especially the Boston area. The storm just blew through Wisconsin. We got 12 inches, with another foot of drifting and 35mph winds. The snow plows didn't come though until 1PM, and by 2pm it was sunny, just like that! I blew through the snow with no problems. I was loosing traction going up hill, so I locked both wheels and it dug right in. This is one of those times that I was glad to have a 2 stage. Let us know how everything is going in the northeast
