Massive Historic Blizzard!!! 967 mb Major Nor'easter!!! Snow already making its way into Upstate NY...

Hey everyone,

Home from running errands =) So far, from the weather forecasts I've been reading for my area (Northern VT), it doesn't seem like we're going to get hit too hard, but man I'd be nervous if I lived further South! Still, you never know what a storm can do; if it will shift its track, etc, so I'm prepared just in case. Ready to get snowed in tomorrow if need be - got extra groceries and stuff today. Stay safe everyone!

It's hitting us here in Central Georgia now. Cold and rainy.
This would be horrible if it was freezing.
Ya'll up North better get ready for a real nasty system.

MAYOR OF BOSTON.....STAY WHERE YOU ARE !!!! After Noon On Friday... Now That Is Seriouse....

Take in to consideration that many dont want to go out and shop in the storm, fri/sat... thats a lot of people changing their schedule to go before hand, hence more people at the stores but that shouldnt mean they are in a panic, people shoving and fighting over items would be more of a panic IMO.. packed stores is going to happen. I dont get why people are quick to say “people are panicking,OMG” just not the case.. storm comes, people buy a few things, GOI.

Very tight pressure gradient with the strong High just to the north.

This storm tomorrow is only 1 day from the same date as the major Blizzard of 2/7/78.....

Does anyone have a link regarding the next system that is supposed to bring more rain and possible flooding to the South East? I've seen a couple references to it on this thread, but would like to find out more...

Mayor Menino is a funny guy. He is always mispronouncing the names of players in all of the Boston sports teams

RT @accu_henry: Storm will probably intensify off Norfolk, bomb out going to Nantucket, loop Sat Am and head out.

Just checked again..still a winter storm watch from 7pm tonight til 7am sat. morning for me. Got family in New York and southern VT and So. New Hampshire though, so hoping this doesn't get too bad.
