1996 all over again? Snow shovels ready?

Recommended Posts

Just looked at the 12z guidance and NJ still gets pounded as the low stalls off the Jersey coast and churns for 8 hours.  

 

DC gets crushed with this run...24"+.   

 

It's like watching a horse race every 6 hours...who's the winner and loser this run!

you better hope we get a dusting :)

 

I've got a bigger truck (Ram 2500) and a light duty plow and I've not found anything yet that I can't push(I even move leaves with it in the fall!).  Everyone shits on it until they see it work.  I have probably 1000lb of firewood in the bed.  

 

The only doubts I see on his rig are tires and weight...you have to have snow tires or at least a good set of M+S with some weight.

It's still Game-on.   This storm is still mirroring 1996 very closely.   While the snow totals still aren't very accurate, it shows that everyone is getting something. South Jersey is definitely in the bigger snows, north Jersey might still mostly whiff.

Yeah, I'm looking at NOAA and NWS data and the predictions for my area now are 70% chance of 4 to 6 inches.  Chance of 12" is at 3%.  Why are we all of the sudden trusting weather forecasts.  Did they become more accurate this past week or something.  I'm still going to fill the gas tank and  stock up on a few supplies though.  Better safe than sorry.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
