OT: General OT Stuff (Infinity+3)(No Politics/Spoilers, see OP)

My latest favorite quote.... Going to be mass destruction. The whole storm is snow. I might faint.

They "know" this time as models are in consensus, but as usual, aren't allowed to tell you yet. I am convinced a priority to the MSM is to not cause public panic.

I wonder why none of the 5 or 6 widely accepted models do not show the R/S line as a factor. No one has even discussed it at all here, even though amateur hour mets know I-95 is traditionally a RS line for pretty much every snow storm here.

Hot off the press - moving the max area closer to DC

Mother of god.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

I think we're gonna get pounded.

 

[RandyHolt]

A model run just showed a shift south, but the Mets say that the NE'sters tend to trend N and a southern shift is concerning, but not a disaster for their dream scenario of an Armageddon.

I am in panic mode, regardless.

 

[hockeykicker]

Probably gonna shift back north a little but fairfax sitting at 27 inches

 

[BiPolar Caps]

Treated myself to a Craftsman 24" Dual Stage Snow Blower for Christmas. Looks like I might give it a workout.

 

[hockeykicker]

okay this is becoming ridiculous. is that almost 40 inches in northern va/dc area?

And I had to go on vacation to Charleston LAST weekend.

My wife is heading to Vegas tomorrow for 5 days. I'll have the 4 and 1 year old to myself for this snowpocolypse. Weeeee!

[strungout]

In other awesome movie news...

 

[hockeykicker]

getting closer and closer and numbers staying relatively the same.

Thoughts and prayers. You should take a week long mancation to a destination of your choosing after this.

 

[Gee Wally]

Wishing you all the best with this storm.

My son and I were supposed to head down there tomorrow for him to interview at NIH on Friday.

NIH contacted us last night and said forget about it and reschedule for sometime in the next week or two.

Good luck!

National weather service just issued a blizzard watch for northern Virginia

 

[RandyHolt]

The sweet spot has moved into MoCo on the latest run... and the rare blizzard watch has just been posted. 1st ever for DC.

my fav quotes of the day

slow moving destroyer of all things...

This is a life threatening storm if all pans out. Serious threats for all. Blizzard of course but full moon with bombing system into blocking high = strong threat for prolonged tidal flooding, beach erosion, damage etc from Delmarva to MA

Bored, check out this link. Hover your mouse over the F#'s to animate the NAM. F72 top right you can see it pivot on us or something. Heavy snows rates at this time I imagine.

Im just going to watch that Suicide Squad trailer over and over again while it snows.

 

[Capitlols]

Oh boy.

Why couldn't it start earlier on Friday...

 

[Chimaera]

Rush hour going home is going to be nuts.

I hope the school system does the right thing and cancels, but I doubt it. They'll try to get it in.

 

[NobodyBeatsTheWiz]

So I moved at the beginning of December. Today I realized that we accidentally left something at the old house -- our snow shovel.

Ugh. It's gonna be a pain trying to find one.

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

I'm having my team work from home on Friday. The idea of rush hour traffic on a Friday and possibly historic snowfall doesn't sound like a fun travel combination.

Even though I could get the thing on eBay later, this damn storm will impede my driving up to Hershey Pennsylvania, two hours away, to get a minor league player bobblehead.

It better be clear sailing Sunday because I need that bobblehead. I don't care that it's a minor leaguer most people haven't heard of. That thing is ****ing sweet.

Biggest reason to detest winter.

Alex Semin?

 

[John Price]

His name is Mike Moore and he's never been called up to the caps I don't think. Either way visiting the ahl affiliate is cool and I've never been
