***Check in if you're in the path of THE STORM****

[taterguy]

Otherwise, we'll assume the worst: That you have things to do in life that are more important than posting on DU.


If I stop posting in this thread it means that I've been eaten by wolves.

[Glitterati]

1. NE Georgia, it's been snowing all day

and the worst - frozen rain, snow, sleet and high winds - arrives tonight.

[texanwitch]

18. Houston area power crews are heading your way

Stay safe guys.

[Glitterati]

19. Thanks, Texas!

I've got a feeling we're gonna need 'em!

We'll try our best to keep them safe while they're here.

[texanwitch]

21. Stay warm.

Just saw it on the news.

The power guys said they were ready.

We had help after Hurricane Ike.

The guys will be there in a few days.

[Glitterati]

24. I have a gas fireplace and cooking stove

so we can keep the living room and kitchen warm with the fireplace and still cook food.

Threw on comfort food tonight - kielbasa and cabbage stew, sweet corn casserole and have peach cobbler ready to go in the oven now.

If nothing else, we'll eat our way through the storm. It's only 2 of us, LOL!

[texanwitch]

25. I have wood stove and a gas heater.

Enjoy your food.

It is 38 wet and cold here.

I cooked a pot of pinto beans and corn bread.

We will be back to the 70's by the end of the week.

[DebJ]

63. Wish I had a cooking stove. All I have is charcoal and a grill!! n/t

[Glitterati]

74. I love my natural gas!

Except when it comes time to pay the bill! I do think it's more expensive than electric in this area.

But, at times like this, it's worth its weight in gold.

Oh, and it's here.....we have several inches of snow on the ground already and it's coming down to beat the band. You can't see where the grass ends and the streets start, either. The roads are simply covered over and travel is, no doubt, very dangerous.

[DebJ]

116. We have natural gas for the stove, also, but we had to replace the stove in 2009

and the darn thing has electronic controls....so I don't know if I could light it with a match or not if the power went out.
Oven is also electronically turned on and temp monitored. We were so much better off with just plain gas. None of
those were even available at the local stores here.

[Glitterati]

119. Mine has electronic starters too, but

You can light them with a lighter/match if the starter goes out. The oven too, though you'll need one of those long, fireplace starters or matches to be successful.

[Beacool]

93. Do you have extras?

I'll drive South with batteries and plenty of lanterns.

[Glitterati]

96. Thank you for the offer, dear, but you would be taking your life in your hands

trying to get here. It's very, very bad.

We're good. We've hibernated since it started yesterday morning, and haven't lost power yet, so we're good. Really.

We had 2 inches of snow Tuesday, 4 inches today, and 0.75 inches of ice on top of it all so far today. And, there's still 4 more inches of snow to fall overnight.

Thank you, though, for the heartfelt concern.

[Beacool]

112. You're welcome.

Although I probably wouldn't have been much help. We are about to get the same storm after 1 AM. It's supposed to be a snow sandwich with a filling of sleet and rain in between. Snow overnight until around noon, then rain and sleet, with some more snow overnight Thursday until Friday. The total could be between 6" - 10", although they said it could surpass that amount.

I'm glad that you're safe and still have power.

[Autumn]

2. eaten by wolves would be a dumbass thing to do.

If you have to go out in the storm stick a 10 or 15 pound rump roast in your pocket, you may want to cut it in thick pieces so you can toss them in the air and haul ass running.

[Historic NY]

3. Yeah again......

its the Northeast.

[meow2u3]

20. Yeeeeesss!

I'm in Eastern PA and my area is expected to get 6-10" of snow.

[justiceischeap]

4. It's on its way to me

Although I get could 3" or 12+", they just haven't decided yet.

[SummerSnow]

5. Yep, Thursday is when the storm arrives. I live in NYC. Just came back from the Supermarket.

[jakeXT]

9. It's probably not looking like this

http://www.weather.com/news/georgia-north-carolina-alabama-winter-storm-grocery-stores-photos-20140211

[SummerSnow]

11. No, not yet.

[Aerows]

17. Looks like every single aisle in the grocery storm

before a hurricane hits.

[anasv]

42. Geez, haven't those people heard of stocking up in advance

by which I mean, earlier than the day before.

[Aerows]

43. Yes.

They get scorned as "survivalists" if they have more than 7 cans of ravioli, a solar oven and a large amount of dried beans.

[JoeyT]

44. Better a survivalist than a starvedtodeathalist.

Though I stock up for hurricanes, the food doesn't care what kind of precipitation is coming down. Ivan taught me to keep at least two weeks worth of food, cooking gas, gasoline, and a case of two stroke oil put back.

The scorn dies down real fast when your friends and family find out you not only have running water, but hot running water when they've been four days without a shower.

[Aerows]

46. We're on the same team

come by my house if you need toilet paper, I promise WE WILL have some.

(I went through 5 weeks of no water with Katrina. Never again).

[JoeyT]

48. I keep a stock of that too.

I don't remember what storm I learned that lesson in, but I remember what it felt like to discover I had ten rolls of paper towels and one roll of toilet paper. Totally not interchangeable.

[Aerows]

49. Ugly lesson to learn

!

[DebJ]

62. I always have lots of food and our hot water doesn't require any electric

it's a tankless heater and the pilot is lit using the energy from water flow. So if the pipes
aren't frozen, we will still have hot water without power.

I buy everything I can on sale (why should I pay full price??) and keep the freezer full.
I've got enough roast beef, chicken and turkey breast cooked to last for a week; it can
just be thawed and eaten cold. I should cook some potatoes I guess in potato-salad-like chunks
for a starch. We have salad stuff. And tuna.

I usually have about 3-6 months worth of toilet paper because I buy it at the price where when I buy
three, the fourth is free.

We're due for possibly 8-12 inches here in York Pa, and we still have snow on the ground from January 21.
Today was the first day I saw any of the grass on the front lawn, and that was just about 1/4 inch of the
sidewalk edge and in a few footprints.

We still have a 2'x7' wall of ice at the bottom of the driveway thanks to the snow plow that came through
in the middle of the night...when it comes in the daytime, I rush right out and move the pile, but this
time it froze solid and hasn't melted much. If this happens again we are going to be pretty well sealed in!

[calimary]

114. Welcome to DU anasv!

Glad you're here! We don't have this problem in SoCal but I'll say this - it's a foolish person who doesn't have an earthquake kit. The conventional wisdom in Southern California, certainly, and up north, too, I'd bet, is - be prepared to survive on your own for up to three days. It may take that long before any help can reach you. And that means - if you need prescription meds, make sure you've got enough. If you have pets, make sure you have supplies to get them by, too. And always, enough drinking water - or the ability to sterilize it. Batteries. Flashlights. A transistor radio. And non-perishables.

You folks in the storm's path, batten down! I liked what Rachel Maddow recommended tonight - "when in doubt, chicken out." No risk-taking, anybody. Play it safe! I want everybody back here and arguing up a blue streak again in a couple/three days!

[NYFlip]

72. I'm in New York too!

Will buy some food tomorrow

[Ruby the Liberal]

6. It will be here on Thursday

I am so sick of winter.

[dsc]

7. kids had no school today

It was a work day for teachers. I was permitted to arrive as late as 1000 arrived at 745 to make up hours I owe for the other storm, and we were ordered to leave at 1030. I am presuming no school tomorrow for me or the kids.

[hlthe2b]

8. Happy with snow and sun's return in Colorado

I put out seasonal house flags, but have let this one pretty much fly since Christmas... Given the population of rabbits here burrowing in against the snow, it seems quite apropos.



Stay warm and safe, my Southern and Eastern friends... I keep tabs on the Atlanta hysteria, given my sister lives there... Seems a lot of folks learned from the last episode, though....

[Glitterati]

26. Yes, this one was handled right

schools all closed, highways were bare and the DOT trucks could get through, and most folks stayed home.

I don't think there's any real preparation we can do for the next part though. Except, of course, stay off the roads so the power crews can get to those downed power lines when the ice comes through with high winds blowing and breaking trees and lines. And, so the DOT can keep the roads clear for the power crews to maneuver safely.

I'm gonna do my part and just park my family in the house and hope it's not as bad as they're predicting.

[Lugnut]

10. NE PA

We're supposed to get a blizzard here according to Accuweather.

[countryjake]

12. T'would be a most noble way to die...

providing a meal for a wolf pack. Tho the starch content could be too much for them.

Stay safe and warm, tater, and I hope the power stays on for everyone in the path of this icy storm!

[CTyankee]

13. we are prepared to get it overnight Wednesday to Thursday, 8 to 12 inches...

so we are fortified with food, wine and a full tank of gas...

As W.H. Auden once said: "Read the New Yorker, trust in God and take long views."

[FSogol]

40. Same here, Wednesday night. Beer fridge is stocked with tasty Pale Ales and IPAs!

[GoCubsGo]

14. That's what they're telling me...

It's raining and upper 30s right now. But, it's supposed to get down to freezing, so I guess we're in for an ice storm. Yipee.

[Glitterati]

15. Language being used in Atlanta - catastrophic ice storm, prepare

for massive power outages lasting days, and possibly weeks.

[hrmjustin]

16. NYC here waiting for 4 to 15 inches of snow depending on the track.

[In_The_Wind]

22. Don't feed the wolves!

We've been downgraded from 18 inches to 14.

[Tom Ripley]

23. Yes, have to cancel tonight's gig, so I'm eating black beans that have been cooking with a...

meaty hambone and chipotle all day. Over rice. And sharing with the dog.

[malaise]

27. Get into the tunnel

Stay safe

[taterguy]

86. The Pamlico Sound is like the Bering Strait today

Not really but it is snowing there and that almost never happens.

People are snowboarding on Jockey's Ridge.

Snowboarding!

[malaise]

89. Winter Olympics everywhere

Enjoy the rare snow

[Hissyspit]

28. SE North Carolina here:

With Photos!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10024484124

[aquart]

29. Then make sure you've cut off your buttons which can upset their stomachs.

Be nice.

[Ellipsis]

34. LOL!

[ohheckyeah]

30. We are expecting

eight to 10 inches. We've got food, water, and back up heat with propane logs.

[MiniMe]

31. A little northwest of DC here

Should be interesting

[Renew Deal]

32. Present

[AngryAmish]

33. any Pinehurst update?

The Open and the Ladies Open in June, back to back, bent greens....ok I'm freaking out a bit....

[DonViejo]

[alfie]

36. Extreme NE Georgia...in the mountains

Storm earlier passed us by with just some light snow mixed with rain that did not stick. However...now they are calling for 6 to 8 inches of snow over the next 24 to 36 hours. I'm fine with snow...have plenty of grub in the house and not likely to lose power. Do have candles and a camp stove just in case.

[mfcorey1]

37. Batten down in Georgia!!!

[dorkzilla]

38. Wtf is up with the Weather Channel naming the storms?

New marketing idea?

I'm just north of NYC...got an email today saying there is a salt shortage so this adds a whole new scary aspect for those of us with wonky backs. Be careful everyone!

[theHandpuppet]

39. Yep... AGAIN

Got the firewood, lamps, water, food. Damn, will this winter ever end? And the thing is, when you have short-legged dogs, you just know you're going to HAVE to go outside and shovel for... well, you know.

[PCIntern]

41. Philly...

Mrs. Intern and I are staying in town - we have clinical commitments which cannot be easily postponed. Philly and the suburbs are running out of salt or whatever for the roads. Should be fun...

[PRETZEL]

83. Western Montco here,

saw that about the salt this morning.

Can't remember anything like this in recent years.

[Nye Bevan]

45. CT: Thursday will be our fifth school closure for snow this winter (nt)

[DebJ]

117. We are on #7 as of Thursday here in York. Hubby worked for school district for 29

years and never saw the like of this madness.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

47. about 30 miles north of ATL here

I think we will get mostly snow and sleet and avoid the freezing rain... guess it depends on the temps aloft...

sP

[Glitterati]

75. Hey Prodigal! Look out your window!

7:15 AM heavy snow and air temps here in Cumming 28.5 at Big Creek Elementary School.

Be safe, stay home!

[ProdigalJunkMail]

78. yep... we got about 3" on the ground here

and it has 'paused' for the moment. pretty right now. birds all over the feeders. definitely staying home... but still working...dang internet.

be careful out there... if you're crazy enough to go.

sP

[MadrasT]

50. Yes. Again.

Lost power 3 days last week from the Great Philadelphia Ice Storm, and damn it I am so over this bullshit.

Another 10" or so is supposed to hit me Thursday.

If I lose power again, I am going to flip out.

[supernova]

51. Durham and Chapel Hill NC here

Should start sometime tomorrow afternoon. We are stocked up and ready.

[The Traveler]

52. In the ATL, we're digging in

Wife and stepson are in the hospital (he just had a procedure and they decided to keep him for a few days). The rest of us have raided the grocery store and are set for the worst! Looks like it is getting misty outside ... everything could be ice coated in very short order.

They're saying this is looking like "an event of historic proportions" ... Good luck, everybody!

Trav

[BlueStreak]

53. Not that I'm unsympathetic, but the midwest continues to be locked into

a temperature range of -10 to +10 degrees. We would welcome what this thread is describing as a storm. That sounds like a nice upgrade from what we've been living with for 6 weeks.

[Armstead]

66. I can relate

[geckosfeet]

77. Ugh. Hate the cold. Looking forward to a thaw this weekend.

[BlueStreak]

79. We're supposed to get above freezing for 1 hour Thursday. It is -1 right now.

It continues to be warmer in Anchorage than Indianapolis.

In early January, they cancelled school when it was +5 because they didn't want the kids standing out in the cold. They game up on that idea because they would have cancelled 20 days of school at that rate.

[Raffi Ella]

54. I had a half cord of firewood delivered last week.

If the power goes out I'll have that and I also have a gas stove so, I'll be fine but it will suck.

[giftedgirl77]

55. Yep waiting for the ice..

We have beer, cookies, milk, cereal, granola bars, & hot chocolate.

[octoberlib]

56. Charlotte, NC here

They're calling for 4-8 inches of snow mixed wth sleet.

[AnnieBW]

57. Hoping to catch a flight to Florida on Thursday morning

But I doubt it. Even if we can make it onto the plane in Baltimore, we have a transfer in Charlotte, which is getting hit before we are.

[Tree-Hugger]

58. Philadelphia Suburbs here

Many people around us had power out for days after last week's ice storm. We've had a lot of damage around here and our county was declared a disaster. So, the looming Nor'Easter, which is expected to dump 12+ inches of heavy snow (thus, the possibility of more damage) on us, is a kick in the face. Our kids have lost.....I've lost count....I think 5 days of school due to weather so far this year. This Friday was actually a make up day for snow. It was originally a day off, then they took it away to make up for one of the snow days, and now it looks like school may be closed. Bah!

The models keep showing scenarios that are worse with each run, so it looks pretty likely that we're gonna get frozen white shit on. I'm still praying that the storm will miraculously weaken or head out to sea.

It sucks for my family because my husband has lost a lot of work due to the snow. He will lose a lot of hours on Thursday and Friday, after fighting to get some extra hours on those days, so it really fucking sucks. On the flipside, I know there are other struggling families just like mine who depend on the snow for extra work (plow truck drivers, etc), so I feel half guilty for wishing the storm away.

Also, fuck snow. Fuck ice.

I hope y'all in the South are safe and that there isn't much damage.

[DebJ]

67. I saw that Philly averages 13 inches of snow a year but so far has 43, whew!

My husband is substitute teaching and we really need the money. So far we've lost six school days,
and that is killing us financially. If this keeps up through March, we are REALLY screwed, so I share
your sentiments.

[Brewinblue]

59. Atlanta and nothing yet,

not even close to freezing, but schools are closed the next two days for the storm, and then until Tuesday for Presidents Day holiday weekend.

[Nay]

60. Yep, in Richmond VA -- snow should start tomorrow afternoon, may turn to sleet

overnight and freeze before morning, and snow will continue most of the day Thursday. Everybody's stocking up; I went to the grocery and it was mobbed, as were the gas stations. Traffic was heavier than usual all day.

As I left the Y this morning, some guys were unloading sacks of road salt for their parking lot. I think it's going to be a big mess.

But....we have a gas fireplace and a gas stove, plus 2 generators, so we'll be OK. Freezing relatives or neighbors will be welcome. Lost and cold kitties, too.

[2theleft]

64. I'm in Richmond, too.

Generator ready, 3 days of wood for fireplace inside to stay dry. Food stocked up.

I cook for my dogs, so have gotten their stuff to make for tomorrow just in case power goes out and is not back on Friday which is when I would need to cook it normally.

I'm heading to Vegas for a work conference. Leaving on Saturday supposedly. Wondering if the airport will be open by then.

[Jefferson23]

61. We are expecting a lot of snow..6 to 10 inches..but no ice storm. So we're good in Ct.

Last edited Wed Feb 12, 2014, 10:00 PM - Edit history (1)

Most of us are sick of winter...no more weather, please.

[Armstead]

65. In New England...s'posed to get it.....But what else is new?

[Blue_In_AK]

68. Dang it, you guys,

GIVE US BACK OUR SNOW!!

We're begging for snow here. It's finally cold enough, but now it's too dry. Grrrr...

[Aerows]

70. Please, we are ready to hand it back

Where can we send your snow, just need an address, we'll provide postage...Oh god, a clump of something wet and cold nearly smeared the label

[Blue_In_AK]

73. How about

General Delivery, Anchorage, AK. 99501.

[Aerows]

69. Yep, WTF is this shit falling from the sky AGAIN?

I live in the damn WAY South.

[Aerows]

71. I feel the urge to ask

*Why is it snowing in the SOUTH!?*

What on EARTH?

[geckosfeet]

76. Central MA. Another day another 6-12 inches of snow. Ho hum. Have to get gas for the snow blower.

[hlthe2b]

80. Yeah, we've kept snow on the ground pretty much since Christmas & mountains have record snow totals

But, the bitter cold keeps returning--that gets my notice. Looking forward to a mid-week warm up, though.

[Jamastiene]

81. I am.

And I am waiting for the obligatory DU thread bashing southerners for staying home when the National Fucking Weather Service tells us to. No, we should ignore them and go traipsing out to our cars and driving right off the road on all our hills. We should be masters at driving around uprooted oak trees and pine trees that turn into ginormous splinters in the road too. We should be CHAMPEEN Ice Drivers in the Olympics what with our once or twice a year, at most, snow/ice/sleet wintry mixes we get.

[hlthe2b]

82. NO WAY.... ICE is the utlimate reason TO STAY HOME...

I've spent my adult life driving the mountains of CO and WY and into the upper plains states in harsh winter conditions... Ice is the ultimate STOPPER.

[panader0]

84. taterguy has stopped posting...

I fear the worst. RIP taterguy.

[Historic NY]

85. Damn wolves, they'll eat anything.

Meanwhile I'm going to move my snowblower closer to the house from the car storage garage....and hookup the extension cord to start it. We due for at 14 inch of heavy snow and that sucks.

[taterguy]

118. I think I escaped the wolves

But I could be wrong

[wildbilln864]

87. upstate SCarolina. n/t

[ohheckyeah]

88. It's started here...

30 minutes worth of snow. They are calling for 12 inches.

[Historic NY]

91. They just boosted the totals for me to 16 inches and we have more than 12 on the ground now...

it was 10 below here this am and it in the plus teens now. Bring it on were not scared.

[ohheckyeah]

100. It's up to about 6 inches deep now.

And it continues to pour down.

[seabeyond]

90. 70 degree weather is following it. just a heads up, lol. nt

[Beacool]

94. I think I hate you!!!

[seabeyond]

95. you made me laugh, out loud, really. that was for the southern states getting hit.

not those in the north. i do not imagine this 70's is gonna make it to you. hey... today was only in the high 40's, low 50's but with sun, felt much warmer. or cause we have had single digit or below for a while it just felt damn good. left windows opened. tomorrow warmer and warmer and warmer.

bet you guys are ready for some warm. i havent had a lot of cold, but man... today felt good.

[Beacool]

109. We are having a tough winter, with at least one snow storm per week.

When we don't get a storm, we get Arctic temperatures. This morning it was 14 degrees.

I'm sick of this winter!!!!

[seabeyond]

111. it has been rough for you all. i hear ya. we had that about 5 yrs ago. not lots of snow,

but lots of below 0 temperature.

[Beacool]

113. Oh well, I guess that spring is only a few weeks away.

Then I'll be complaining about the summer's extreme heat.

[Beacool]

92. Northern NJ.

It'll be here after 1 AM. Last week we had two storms, things are improving, this week we have one.

[Glitterati]

97. Hate to burst your bubble, but this one is a doozy!!!!

I don't think, except for Chicago blizzards, I've ever seen it snow, sleet, freezing rain, then snow again over such a long period of time.

This thing is MASSIVE.

[Beacool]

110. Wuuuahhh!!!!

I'm soooo done with winter!!!!!!!

[Kingofalldems]

98. Looks like all snow here in Montgomery County Md.

Long range forecast calling for around 60 degrees by end of next week.

[Samantha]

105. I am in College Park MD and I am extremely nervous about the power

I do not have alternative heat and I have several animals to worry about. I think we are suppose to get 6-9 inches. I just keep telling myself if I make it through about 1 day, everything will be okay. I am not a wimp until something threatens my electricity!!!

Good luck to you.

Sam

[Kingofalldems]

106. If it's all snow I think the power will be fine.

[Samantha]

108. Well, it is going to be mixed with sleet after a certain point

so since it will only get to the mid-30s tomorrow, I am thinking the sleet will freeze????

Sam

[PasadenaTrudy]

99. Meanwhile, in L.A.

we had 87 degrees today. Too hot for Feb. again!

[kwassa]

104. I used to live in LA. Now I live in Montgomery County, MD.

Somewhat different.

Actually, the best skiing I ever had was in California, not here.

I was missing the cross-country skiing on the Angeles Crest Highway in midwinter. and on Mt. Pinos.

[Ruby the Liberal]

115. OMG I hate you

said all of us in the Northeast.

I am so done with winter.

[SaveOurDemocracy]

101. Snow started here about an hour ago. SW of Philly, N of Newark, DE.

Forecasting 6-12"

[one_voice]

103. I'm here in Bear, DE....

stay warm and safe.

[NutmegYankee]

102. SlushFest in SE Conn. Check!

6-10 inches plus sleet and rain, a total of 2 inches of water all with a Nor'easter gale force wind to boot!

[adirondacker]

107. We're missing all the fun up here, with the exception of -25 last night.

We are expecting another half a foot from lake effect tomorrow night though. Coldest winter in a long time.

[DiverDave]

120. Just told the wife that we

are going to PHL and take the 1st flight to anywhere warm...now getting there...
