Was happy that classes were going to be canceled. Yeah, I was wrong. 😆 Your college didn’t cancel classes after an 18-inch snowstorm? That’s insane!

Elessar78 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Road clearance is usually excellent here. I think Omicron has road crews short staffed. 2-inches shouldn’t phase us here, but roads were dangerous today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted January 29, 2022 Author Share Posted January 29, 2022 Bomb cyclone prompts blizzard warnings from Virginia to Maine Blizzard warnings are in effect for 11 million people from coastal Virginia to eastern Maine as a potentially historic winter storm is set to slam the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast beginning Friday. Why it matters: The storm will bring hazards ranging from zero visibility amid hurricane force wind gusts and heavy snow, to coastal flooding that will erode vulnerable beaches and threaten property from the Jersey shore to coastal Massachusetts. The big picture: The storm is expected to rapidly intensify as it moves from the Carolinas on Friday evening to a position south-southeast of Cape Cod on Saturday. A total of 75 million people were under some form of winter weather alerts as of Friday afternoon. As the storm moves north, it will bring a swath of extremely heavy snowfall and strong winds, with one to two feet of snow or more forecast to fall from coastal Virginia to eastern Maine. The highest snow totals are expected in Massachusetts, where Boston is predicted to see at least two feet, with up to 30 inches in parts of the metro area, according to the National Weather Service (NWS). This event may become the biggest snowstorm on record in Boston. Click on the link for more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted February 2, 2022 Author Share Posted February 2, 2022 Next winter storm will stretch over 2,000 miles As the second winter storm in less than a week sets up across the country, 21 states are gearing up for a blast of winter precipitation and dangerously cold temperatures. More than 90 million people are currently under winter weather alerts stretching from the Rockies to New England -- over 2,000 miles. The biggest impact will be in the South, where a crippling ice storm is likely. Places including Dallas and Memphis, Tennessee, could see icy roads and power outages amid dangerously cold temperatures. Parts of the Midwest could see over a foot of snow; potentially the biggest snow in a century for some. Click on the link for more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
