We still have power as of now though. And will be ready to play in the snow in the morning.

Just consider it a day to PLAY... making it up won't be so bad..... the opportunity to have a SNOW DAY probably don't come along too often! LOL Enjoy!

Will pray you don't lose power...we did 3 days with no power and then a friend brought a generator...everyone around us was out for 7 days...it was bad. I did learn a few tricks to make coffee and cook though

we used the grill a lot and it had a side burner to boil things...boiled water and ran it through the coffee maker before we got the generator...gotta have my coffee!

According to tonight's news NJ will be hit Tues. night or Wed. with another snow storm. We haven't gotten rid of the 30" we got the day after Christmas. It's only the beginning of Jan. and I'm so sick of this already. Calgon take me away.

We are still waiting for it to hit. They expect it to hit my area around 10pm. We are ready and even have a generator. Bought it years ago when we lived in Florida and had hurricanes to go through. They expect my area to get 5-7 inches of snow and .25 inches of ice on top. We are just not use to it, so planning to just relax at home with the furkins.

BabyGirl Rosie · 01-09-2011, 06:34 PM

Wow! Some of you are going to get way more than they expect us to get. Ours usually comes in and goes out pretty quickly. Electricity is always an issue. Don't get me started on that one.

J_is_my_initial · 01-09-2011, 08:04 PM

TN has declared emergency level 3. They expect most closer to chattanooga but real close to Knoxville, where I am. They are expecting it to hit in the morning. About 2-3 am. they are expecting dangerous travel in the morning. I do not go to work till 2 pm so I will know by then if I am going in. Thank goodness dh has the day off due to dr appt. If work is not cancelled and it is not too bad, he will drive me in. Work knows I am a chicken in bad weather. I leave at 8pm so by then roads can be icy.

I'm in NJ and I'm told their is an Easterner hitting hard. No one knows how much snow, but I did hear tonight at work maybe 30 inches. Thankfully I"m off from work the next three days. I'll be out early tomorrow food shopping etc. And, maybe maybe maybe I'll be able to find a store with a snow blower left from our last storm. All the shoveling nearly killed me.

I have cabin fever already!! It's only been snowing for 4 hours(3 inches so far!!) Snow is not my bag! Of course we are not prepared. We've got 1/4 gallon milk, 1 roll TP and no CHOCOLATE!!! HELP!!! I can see the headlines now... Ga. woman goes thru Hershey's withdrawl and freaks out.

Later to be found naked and rambling in blizzard!!! What happened to that damn Global Warming?!

dispatcher · 01-09-2011, 09:31 PM

Just started in the Upstate of SC. I'm at work, suppose to be last night of work after a looooooong weekend!! Looks like I'll be back in here tomorrow night

. Emergency services never closes

diannenet · 01-09-2011, 10:07 PM

Looks like we are going to get hit with about 6" of the white stuff, if we do I'll have to take a video of Speedy playing in the snow. She absolutely loves it!

salazark · 01-09-2011, 11:34 PM

I'm in northern Alabama. We started about 8:00 tonight and we've already got at least 8''. They are expecting about 12'' by the time it ends. Its been a long, long time since we've seen this much.

Woke up to snow everywhere! It even blew up on both of my porches and on my window screens. It is still snowing at 7am this morning.

Here are some photos taken this morning.

Hope everybody stays safe and warm and enjoys cuddling with their furry babies!
We got several inches in the Dallas area yesterday, after a morning of sleet. School's just delayed two hours, but doggies and I are considering it a snow day.

My "new" little 4-month old Zoe tromped through snow up to her CHIN to go to her normal potty spot and potty in the dark and the snow. We were very impressed.
