Time to get the bread, eggs and beer :rofl:

I just heard a weather guy say there may be 30 inches on the ground by Wednesday morning.

Looks like it's... out with the tractor again for the sleds.
If the snow wants to get medieval on me, I just break out the BIG old Ford Diesel Backhoe.
There's a beast to pull a sled for every occasion up in my our collection.
Guess my Corvette's gonna get covered again. I should maybe put it in the shed sometime.
2011 sounds good.
Then again, let's just wait and see what cards we're dealt. Weather sure is a funny thing no?

Sounds like another good Saturday for a warm tavern with some good grog on tap.
All followed by a sunny jaunt through a brisk, pines winterscape on Sunday.
Bring it on !!

The planets must be in alignment. The NWS has come around with their guesscast. Its amusing to me how a liberal guvmint can have such conservative guesscasts :) They did however, forget to mention the gale watch for coastal waters they issued thru Saturday, winds to 47 kts, seas to 11 feet.

"THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN MOUNT HOLLY HAS ISSUED A WINTER
STORM WATCH...WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM FRIDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH
SATURDAY EVENING.

A STORM SYSTEM DEVELOPING OVER THE GULF OF MEXICO TODAY WILL PASS
OFF THE CAROLINA COAST FRIDAY NIGHT AND THEN CONTINUE TO THE
NORTHEAST ON SATURDAY. SNOW FROM THIS SYSTEM WILL OVERSPREAD THE
REGION FROM SOUTH TO NORTH FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND IT WILL CONTINUE
MUCH OF SATURDAY. SIGNIFICANT SNOW TOTALS OF 6 TO 12 INCHES WILL
OCCUR OVER THE WATCH AREA. HIGHER TOTALS ARE POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY
ACROSS THE DELMARVA REGION. STRENGTHENING WINDS ON SATURDAY MAY
CREATE AREAS OF BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW WHICH MAY CREATE
ADDITIONAL HAZARDS.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

PLEASE LISTEN TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO OR GO TO WEATHER.GOV ON THE
INTERNET FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE FOLLOWING HAZARDS.

WINTER STORM WATCH.

A HIGH IMPACT WINTER WEATHER EVENT IS EXPECTED LATE FRIDAY AFTERNOON

I was gonna see how things played out, and if Sunday was good (clear roads) I was thinking of heading to the pines for some photo ops.

We have a nightmare of a forecast challenge in front of us...because we're not exactly sure how far north the heaviest snow is going to be. It certainly is going to be south of 195...Ocean and Burlington counties on south. To cut right to the chase, 8-12 inches or even more is likely. Farther north...it's a little bit of a crap shoot to determine how much is going to fall. I'm going for 4 to 6 inches from Route 1 to Route 78...and lesser amounts in the far northern part of New Jersey. I want to point out that where I'm calling for 4 to 6...there could be double that if this storm shifts a little bit farther north. Same thing for far northern New Jersey. They could wind up with more than just 2 to 4 inches. Right now the bulls eye's in South Jersey.

It'll all be gone for Sunday, and we'll have another storm to possibly watch by the middle of next week. Stay tuned...

I don't want to dampen any excitement you guys have, but I don't get the disparity between weather reports. I mean, its not even close.

Hmm... Accuweather sells their product to TV and radio stations and gloom and doom make great sound bytes. They also want bragging rights to be the first to say "we told ya so". The NWS just calls it like they see it.

Guess we'll find out who's right soon enough, but from everything I'm reading I don't think we'll get off free this time - especially down South where I am....
