At least it's going to fall over the weekend :woot:
sweet.....only 12-24" for me
Made a batch of this last night, so I'm well prepared
Sounds pretty darn delicious.
I just have a handle of scotch....might pluck a few icicles off the gutter and drop em in the glass...
Good luck, I'm glad that our forecast has dropped to less than 6"!
Stay safe my friends.....
By that; I mean be careful in the checkout lines..:woot: :excruciating:
Feeling for you guys
We have another blast of that 100 degree Aussie hot air right now
But my young son, who (like his Dad) is a mad keen skier, is pushing really hard for a northern hemisphere ski holiday 🙂
It's just not fair. Bunch of snow going some place that don't appreciate any of it and shuts down after the first 1/2" of the white stuff and here we are going through our second nearly bone dry winter in a row with above freezing temperatures. All my snowmachines and skis just sitting around collecting dust. Downright depressing and not at all fair I tell you. :pissed:
Send a few feet of that snow this way please.

In Jersey we get a few storms a year that drop a few inches at a time usually. 2 feet at once is out of the norm though...I'd gladly give you two thirds of it if I could...
James,
stay safe,
hope you have enough winter Chouffe in the basement!
By the way, we now have Chouffe for every season
greetz from Belgium,
Christof.
Wow Christof feel free to ship some of that down to Louisiana!!

By all means, Please, Please come get some!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We will be more than happy to share! Start with my walk and around my car please..... and bring as many trucks as you can to cart it away.....
I can deal with a few inches, but the first storm of the year with this mess? I'm ready to move to somewhere else where it doesn't get too hot or too cold.
I'd be glad for the snow if you could send it here (central Utah). Had three straight years of drought, the worst I've ever seen. We are off to sort of an average start but need a lot to fill up the system to average. We had about 15% of our average irrigation water last year.

Well maybe if I could get enough of you folks out there on the East Coast to flap your arms up and down, y'all could kick that jet stream back up this way where it belongs and solve both our problems! We don't get some major snow events soon, the fire season come spring time up here is going to be epic. Just one big popcorn fart dry tinder box. So way I see it from up here, you guys are blessed!!! Let's all just hope that it doesn't go and melt on you the very next day and lead to flooding. If I was you I'd call in sick, grab my skis and hit the slopes! Got those priorities all wrong. 😉

No Chouffe, but I do have Chimay Red and Westmalle Dubbel on hand. With a name like Fleming I have no choice but to like Belgian beer 😀
The Mississippi River is already about as high as I've ever seen it, they already opened the Bonnet Carre spillway a couple weeks ago:

Hopefully when all that melts at least some of it finds a different path to the sea!!
All you need to survive a blizzard is pork rinds and beer, everything else is optional.
About 3 years ago we had somewhere around 24" of snow here. I have a driveway that is about 600 feet long but I do have a small tractor with an end loader and rear blade to clear the snow. I can't remember how much time I spent on that thing but it might have been 6 hours. Not fun without a cab.
Great day of sledding with the youngins today in NC. Rural roads are pretty icy. It's hot fire and a cold beer this evening.:beer:

Done that before. Snowed on a Tuesday night (I think), called in sick to work while on my way to skiing. Wonderful day.
The trouble now is one, getting out with close to 2 feet of snow (don't have the appropriate vehicle and the lack of road clearing here), two, I'm too old and fat to ski any more.....
Connecticut is forecasted between 3" to over 12"...wait and see i guess.
