new snow storm on the rise.

[tony357 386]

spent today servicing both plows for the next storm..

looks like 4-6 inches..

[mikeyboyeee 66]

6-10 up by me.

[Malsua 1,422]

Uhm, this doesn't look good.

 

 

 

 

A powerful storm of historical proportions is aiming at much of the Northeast Thursday into Friday and will follow up to a foot and a half of snow through Wednesday over upstate New York and western New England.

 

This second storm will be nothing short of a monster. Even in light of the blizzards earlier this winter that targeted the southern mid-Atlantic, this may be the one that people remember the most this winter in parts of New England and the northern mid-Atlantic.

At its peak, the storm will deliver near hurricane-force wind gusts (74 mph) blinding snow falling at the rate of over an inch per hour. For some people in upstate New York and eastern and northern Pennsylvania, this may seem more like a "snow hurricane" rather than a blizzard.

Cities likely to be impacted by heavy snow for all or at least part of the storm include: New York City, Albany, Rochester, Syracuse, Binghamton, Scranton, Allentown, Reading, Williamsport and Burlington.

 

The storm also deliver heavy rain and flooding northeast of the center of circulation.

 

The cities of Boston, Providence and Portland may have their hands full with coastal flooding problems.

 

The combination of wind, heavy rain and heavy snow will lead to extensive power outages and property damage. Where numerous trees and lines are blown down, the power could be out for a week in some areas.

 

Impacts on travel in the region may be severe. The effects of the storm will lead to flight delays and cancellations. Some major roads may be blocked by snow, downed trees or flooding.

 

Many schools will be closed or have early dismissals.

 

Blowout tides caused by strong offshore winds from New Jersey to North Carolina may pose problems for coastal waterway interests.

 

Exactly where this storm forms and tracks will determine whether you get all snow, all rain, snow to rain or just snow showers. A variance in track of as little as 50 miles will make a difference.

 

One thing is for sure, most people in the mid-Atlantic and New England will have problems from this storm's strong winds.

 

Keep checking in at AccuWeather.com for updates on snowfall and other impacts on this potentially very dangerous, destructive storm.

Crap. I want Spring.

[The_Matrix 105]

Man, I am getting really sick of this snow!!!!

[SpecOps2087 3]

ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

 

I'm all about winter but damn, enough is enough

[tony357 386]

[matt6669 71]

Ugh two shots and you don't even have to worry about tracking them

[Chad 3]

Ugh two shots and you don't even have to worry about tracking them

Murderer!!!

 

 

 

The weather this year so far is killing the car wash biz! Sucks. :roll:

 

Hey architect , how hard would it be to convert a car wash into a bowling alley?

[matt6669 71]

Killing the car wash business. I thought you guys liked snow???

 

And bowling ally is a bad idea, its a dying breed. They are closing left and right!

 

Pick something else and I'll give you some advice.

[Chad 3]

We like a little bit of snow,....1-2", lot of salt on the roads, then everything is dry 2 days later.

 

When you get so much snow like this, it keeps melting and the roads stay wet as it runs off bla bla bla. Wet roads tells people their car is going to get dirty as soon as they drive away. We've been steady, just not the usual after snow knock em dead business we usually do. I guess I can't complain.

 

Oh, and I was kidding about opening a bowling alley silly boy.

[matt6669 71]

Ahhhhh got ya, that makes sense on the car wash business. But hey at least your keeping busy and the cars are still coming. Hopefully this rain will stop and people will come get their cars washed because I need a new gun and your behind on your child support

 

And I knew you were kidding ya DOPE

[tony357 386]

bowling may be an upcoming sport to watch for.

1, no permit required to purchase bowling ball

2, no nics check

3, no area permit required to bowl

4, no taxes added to purchase other than sales tax.

5, you can bowl withi'n 350 feet of an occupied building

6, you do not need a license to bowl

7, everyone else wears the same ugly shoes

8, no ear muffs required but optional

9, safety glasses not required but optional

10, you do not have to take a bowling safety course

 

 

But if i were to take up bowling that could all change.

 

 

Do they have outdoor bowling ranges?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Chad 3]

 

That was great tony...I bet you'd get a strike every time with that thing!!!

 

but don't give the lawmakers of NJ any ideas....they will catch on you don't need a permit and whatnot next thing you know you will! lol

 

We should have a NJGF bowling event! I bet that would be a fun change of pace!

[matty 810]

Yes, its called Bocce

 

Do they have outdoor bowling ranges?

[]/quote]

 

I'll add that you can drink alcohol if you so choose while bowling, which probably makes it more dangerous than a trip to the range!
