well we lucked out, the storm took a turn for the better, i guess we got an inch of snow, streets are down to the pavement, still windy. it just seems the weather forecasters and the news people get their jollies terrorizing the public, i don't know if boston was as lucky. being close to the water ,we luck out alot of times with the water temps. hope all is safe, have a great sunday

Weather is hard to predict and they feel over kill is better than under.

16 degree high today, with wind gusts up to 60 MPH

. I put the fire on at 4:30 AM in case we lose power, all is good so far. $:-\$

SAL!!! Shhhhhhhhh!

Be careful the chill factor makes it deadly outside. I was trapping in -35° with 25mph wind and nearly froze.

Boston had close to a couple of feet of new snow last time I checked. Very rough. I'm in Summit, NJ, tucked in behind the NY bight. Not that it's a sure thing, but we often escape the worst of coastal storms as they track east against Long Island. (Knock, knock.) Having said that, the wind was a b*tch last night and today, plumes of snow streaming off of roofs.

My daughter sent me a pic of her building in Boston, she's on the top floor.

Too bad she took it after they removed a huge icicle from the corner of the building, she was getting water through the wall.
Looks like they're all doing fine.

On another note, its 2 degrees here at the moment and -16 wind chill. I heard on Fox local news they couldn't interwiew anyone this morning at the bus stop, their lips wouldn't move

That's too cold!

Yeah Sal, it was -7 this A.M. I don't even want to guess what the wind chill was at. My dog doesn't want to go out in this. I gotta force her and she only lasts about 5 min. And that's with her boots and coat on. This is some scary weather. Stay warm.

I get chills just looking at the pictures and hearing how cold it is. Stay warm and safe my friends.

Ok, now I'm sick of the snow, we got 6" last night.
I must say though, I'm not sure its related to the cold temperature, but it sure looks beautiful. It is still coming down, but in ice chips, the snow appears to be covered with diamonds.
I took a couple of pics, but doesn't do it justice, I'm not sure you could see it.

i can see the ice chips pretty but yuck, we got around 4 in. and still coming down, enough already, more snow, freezing temps, hate it, but i saw the news last night, people had snow blowers cleaning off their roofs in boston, they have a bigger problem than we do, my nephew in georgia lost power 11;30 last night and is still out due to ice storm, no coffee no heat. stay safe all

Keta · February 17, 2015, 02:40:34 PM

We get snow like that when it's well below freezing.

fsrmn · February 17, 2015, 07:06:26 PM

My sister-in law is in Northern PA. She said it was 26 below with the wind factor.
