OT: Off Topic 2019 part VI - Winter is no longer coming - IT HAS ARRIVED

[Kate08]

I have two different size foam rollers. They work wonders, but then it still takes me half an hour to get up off the floor

Hope you feel better!

I do too but unfortunately they don’t do much for the smaller knots. I also struggle with using the foam roller, it’s not as easy as you’d think.

There’s a treadmill studio in the North End that has a Runner’s recovery class on sundays. 10 minute warm up on the treadmill and then 30 mins of rolling and stretching. I really need to check it out

Holy shit! If any of you especially old and out of shape like me go out to shovel take it real slow.
They plowed my street with a front end loader.
Crazy crazy heavy. Temp has dropped 10 degrees in 2 hours here.
Shit is like concrete.

 

[DarrenBanks56]

just finished shovelling.
luckily only about half a foot out there but ice pellets all over it.
temp is about 15. wanted to get it done before it really freezes.

off for a coffee and donut now

Drove home from Foxwoods and it was monsoon rain until Foxborough when it went to sleet. 95 is not salted and sanded and there are massive puddles everywhere.

I got off in Walpole and the roads are a mess. The plows and sanders are out but not plowing anything or sanding anything.

There’s a good inch of water under the snow

Be safe, take it easy and clean off the roof of your damn car!

 

[Kate08]

We went out and shoveled, and talked to our neighbor for a while. All told we were out for probably 45 minutes to an hour, went out around 9:15. Temp dropped about 15 degrees while we were out there.

Fireplace is on, jammies are back on, and just made a round of mimosas because why the hell not.

Not the healthiest breakfast I’ve ever made but f*** it, I’m hibernating

And you probably have to pay $4 for a package containing ten cookies

Maybe but we're talking triple stuf Oreos here!!! Totally worth it!!!!

Just made banana bread and planning to juice some tangelos for drinkin or for pie. Waiting for the sickie, GloveM, to wake up.

 

[BMC]

Debating on when I should go out there. Sleet coming down like crazy now. On top of about 6 inches of snow.

Most of the snow is gone here but everything will ice over later. I'll go out later this afternoon and spread rock salt

Here are the results of the Tennessee blizzard we had last night.

Sorry you guys have to deal with all that. I grew up in Maryland so I did my share of foot-high shoveling back then.

Happy Birthday Bets!

Thanks Cinde!!!!

so grateful to be living on the Island in BC, no snow, maybe, just maybe a light frost on the ground in the mornings. Be safe friends

 

[Bruinaura]

Well, I mean, I do have to go clean my car off, at least...

[Gee Wally]

Im just hoping to leave central Mass for the Cape in a couple of years.
At least I’ll see 2/3 less snow.

 

[Bruinaura]

Happy Birthday Bets!

Oh! Happy Birthday @BMC



And look who you share it with!!

 

[Kate08]

Been tweaking a recipe for lemon pepper and garlic wings for a few weeks now. Trying them out in the air fryer for the early game.

Excited!

 

[Salem13]

Ratted out a homeless couple in a makeshift tent tonight just because of overnight temps.

Not sure what local PD can do but I'll sleep better knowing I did what little I could.

I thought it snowed like crazy in BC, or is that just higher up in the mountains? Someday I’ll get out there to ski Revelstoke or Whistler, the skiing looks insane.

I live on the south shore, not the cape but still on the coast (and half the people that I speak to not from the south shore think it's the cape when I say where I am from).

We have maybe 2 inches of snow. All day today it's been rain. Roads will suck once the temp drops tonight but it's not ice yet.

No matter how often I see it, it's always amazing to me how 15/20 miles can be the difference between 2 inches of snow & a blizzard haha.

 

[Shaun]

it’s 50 and clear here. i would trade places to be back east in the snow.

 

[TD Charlie]

Few inches of heavy snow out there and still pouring rain when i decided to shovel it all. Horrible idea with my busted shoulder. Fitbit tracked 5k steps and 75 active minutes though.

Decided on smith and wollensky for dinner last night. Unreal dinner. At a cost, but good lord was it ever good

Oh! Happy Birthday @BMC



And look who you share it with!!

Thanks @Bruinaura !

Hmmm... no wonder I can predict when he'll score!

Hard as it was to do you did the right thing.
