level 2 here BLIZZARD ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

snowing here again had stopped and sleeted off and on since around 1:30 or so!
Blizzard is not in our vocabulary anymore ! If it snows as much as they say it will be the biggest snow my youngest has seen

[mstangmom]

True, BUT I WISH YOU WERE WRONG

[mvlnewlex]

Yep Blizzard Warning for Lancaster and Newark area !



Who was the first person to call this a potential blizzard almost a week ago ?

RUT ROE NLP, something you didn't predict and now The Weather Channel is now doing so is temps staying below freezing on Saturday! that could make it much messier.

I just got back in a little bit..watching the water levels already and the super saturated ground...flooding is going to be the huge story now I do believe.

All this hype for nothing so far.

It's the Ryan Leaf of snowstorms.

yep I agree how is the old Ohio holding up down that way? I still have a little water left in my yard from the begining of the week along with the snow

Guess your just in a good spot. I would much rather have the Rain than all this snow.

Wind is blowing like crazy now and with it being blown off the tops of people houses its looking bad.

[itownpaw]

Ok, gosh darnit. this makes me mad. Maybe im just on edge and under stress in life right now. But if you would actully read my darn forecast (Or even the NWS forecast) you would see that Jackson and Portsmouth were supposed to get mostly rain and sleet today. Some light snow later tonight. and then several inches of snow tomorrow.

I am tired of people who know nothing about the weather being too critical of weather forecasters.

most of these people dont even read forecasts in details. They dont bother to see where the storm is coming from and what the overall situation is.

air heads

[mvlnewlex]

oops sorry..

calm down..deep breath.. LOL

[Tartanblue]

Newlex what are the chances we get more snow than what you predicted tomarrow?
