But roads will be clear. I want virgin snow.glock said:Oh, don't sweat it- this batch of white stuff will be here waiting for you when you get back...Koya said:While some would say this was a perfect week to have a biz trip to boca (left last night head back Thursday), my jeep is sorta bored sitting at my work garage :-/
left work at 12. Roads were slow but i got home by 1Lacking intelligence.Not sure why I didn't just work from home
Same thing happened to me today. Driving through the back roads and some dumb broad in a white sedan got stuck. Caused like 5 cars to back up in each direction. After like 5 minutes of flailing around like a dying fish, she slid to the side and we were all able to go around her.Central NJ - still dumping...been snowing since I left for work at 7:30 AM. I had an early AM meeting, and left after that (11:00). Roads were horrible. I quickly realized that back roads were likely moving as fast as the interstate and jumped off the main road...glad I did as apparently a jackknifed tractor trailer shut down I-78 westbound for an hour or so. Several cars were stuck trying to get up a steep hill near my house. I'll never understand what possesses people to pull up behind a car that is clearly stuck on a hill...the only place he has to go is backwards. Regardless, I waited for him to slide out of the way and went around...Definitely a 4WD + good tires type of day.
Yikes. Nightmare scenario. Stay warm.This afternoon, our carbon monoxide detector downstairs signaled. Yikes!
Called FD non-emergency after shutting furnace off. 5 minutes later 2 firefighters show up and measure 30 ppm at the base of the furnace in back (0-4 elsewhere downstairs). I shut down furnace, they call gas company. Gas company guys get the same readings as firefighters, and go on to test stove/oven, water heater...a-ok.
Gas guys show me the crack in the heat exchanger, demonstrate how the furnace isn't burning clean, point out soot, etc. Gas is shut off at furnace.
I have three portable radiators and two space heaters, all from when we refurbed a couple of duplexes. Two story, 1850 sq feet. Old home in historic district. I hope they help. My parents house is a back up plan.
18 F now, with wind chill of 4 F. Low tonight of 3F.
Thank goodness for the detector. Good luck!This afternoon, our carbon monoxide detector downstairs signaled. Yikes!

Have you been following his feud with weatherboy? Who knew amateur meteorologists were so catty14" here in Edison, NJ. There's a guy on facebook that goes by the name Severe NJ Weather. He called this storm a week and nailed it. He's been mroe accurate than all of the news people including the weather channel. He's like the Rain Man of weather.
Weatherboy also called this storm last week. Meanwhile, the meteorologists on the local news channels barely mentioned this possibility until MONDAY! I only listen to weatherboy now.

Wha????8.5" in Downingtown from yesterday. I dont have a shovel (part of HOA), but they hadnt gotten to my house yet so I had to use a push broom to clear a path for my car to get out of garage.
I dont own a shovel because snow removal is part of our HOA and I havent had the motivation to get one.Wha????8.5" in Downingtown from yesterday. I dont have a shovel (part of HOA), but they hadnt gotten to my house yet so I had to use a push broom to clear a path for my car to get out of garage.

I read that wrong. I thought part of your HOA terms was that you can't shovel your own sidewalk. GO GET A SHOVEL!!I dont own a shovel because snow removal is part of our HOA and I havent had the motivation to get one.Wha????8.5" in Downingtown from yesterday.

That may change after today though...
We got it as a throw in Christmas gift from my Dad about 6 years ago. Called him last night, "You remember that CO detector you gave us? It worked." Thanked him profusely.Thank goodness for the detector. Good luck!This afternoon, our carbon monoxide detector downstairs signaled. Yikes!

It has nothing to do with how the kids are treated. It has to do with driving conditions and a lot of people being bad drivers in adverse conditions, making the roads dangerous for them and others. NYC schools were open on time. You know why? Most of the kids walk to school.Only couple inches snow where i'm at and sun out this morning but the dumb a@@es in this area called school off last freakin night. It is cold but in no way should schools be closed. It's no wonder kids are the way the are today, but alot of it comes from idiot parents who treat these brats like pu@@ies. Rant over
Damn. Where you at, son?playin4beer said:The 1-3" we were projected for today has turned into a solid 8-12" and it's still falling heavily..... #### Winter

It's severe nj weather and weatherboy weather on Facebook. Weatherboy got on the map during sandy. He's like a 16 year old but does a good job. Severe weather is kind of an funny duck but it seems like weatherboy tried to discredit him. I'll look for links but follow severe and look for cryptic comments around the new year. Plays out in some comments though never directly that I have seenIs this real or schtick. If real, link please.I have. Pure comedy.Have you been following his feud with weatherboy?

Not schtick. The guy who runs Severe NJ Weather put out a disclaimer against WeatherBoy a few weeks ago, and then I think he found out that it was actually a Weather BOY, meaning the kid must have been like 15 or something, who is really trying to go to meteorology school.Is this real or schtick.

I stand corrected.Weatherboy isnt a 16 yr old kid. Its a group of trained meteorologists.
I saw a fight break out when weatherboy posted how accurate a previous forecast was compared to tv forecasts but he also included other online sites. The other sites got pissed saying he lied about some of the stats even though he was kind of giving them credit.
wait I saw what usual saw, that was spread by severe weather, that isn't true? Where did you hear weatherboy was a collective?Weatherboy isnt a 16 yr old kid. Its a group of trained meteorologists.
