Re: Massive Historic Blizzard!!! 967 mb Major Nor'easter!!! Snow already making its way into Upstate NY...
Some times I have to wonder why you all make a big thing out of this??? I lived in Maine most of my life time what you guys call lots of snow is a drop in the bucket. Gosh get a freaken life. It's Maine for crying out loud we are use to 5 feet of snow in any storm, and we also are use to -40 degree temps, so please don't make a big thing about it. I have seen 3 feet of snow fall on Thanksgiving day. Don't worry Maniacs know how to cope. People in upper NY state know how to cope with it believe me, it happens every single year. Been that way ever since people have lived there.

lmao You gotta understand down south in the U.S. including Washington DC, in southern England [London] and elsewhere, they get 1-2" of snow or sleet and they freak the fuck out. If they got the kind of snow even cities like NYC and Boston get in the northeast, let alone northern New England and upstate NY, they'd have a stroke.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21700750


I know ever since I moved to North Carolina, I have found out that 2 inches of snow closes down the whole state. Its a great laugh for me. I enjoy sitting in my home and watching one accident behind the other at the intersection here. Its great entertainment. Of course I know better then to drive when we get snow here because the folks around here don't know how to drive on snow. Don't need some moron killing me lol

Yes, natives typically fare well, however less and less people know how to drive in it, making it deadly for everyone on the road, or how to deal with power outages. If they can't flick a switch, or turn a knob and get heat and and water, this could be devastating.

Here in upstate NY, we've been known to go for weeks without power due to a storm like this, and thanks to people like Luis, at least those that have yet to adapt, (and there are many !!)have the heads up.

Thanks again Luis.

I bet that you don't live in the Mountains of North Carolina because you wouldn't be bashing like this. Some parts up there are just like New England weather except worse. More ice storms for sure.

Last time it snowed here, somebody wrote the word RETARD in the snow on top of my car. It took me nearly two hours to lick it all off.

Also, we don't have snow tires and chains. In fact snow tires are illegal in some places as they sometimes have little metal cleats that can damage high temperature roads.

If we can't drive down here, explain Nascar, lolz.

But I agree, it's best not to get out and drive among us when we have the rare and elusive snow. For one thing the humidity is always high so the snow is slick and tends to ice over.
One of the most important aspects of conspiracy theories is being able to discern when there isn't one.

 Quoting: wait....what?


thank's! Do you see the map? very cold temp comming...
 Quoting: Luisport


-3 to -4C to Florida... -14C it's the coldest in forecast.
 Quoting: Luisport


That's -3 to -4c or 1.8f/C or 1.8x3 or 1.8x4 = 5.4F or 7.2F below normal for that time of year. If Orlando's normal high is 72 then expect highs from 65 to 67. But I believe that map is taking daily avg high anomalies to include avg high and low temp combined and divided out.
Not sure but hope it that polar air slides down the east coast.
