Nemo- Historical NE Storm

Bard · 02-09-2013, 10:38 AM

took the pups out and they had a blast in the snow that is up to the sheppards chest and the poor whippet well she leaps from on spot to the next the to shovel the path and both autos out they have yet to plow our street and I do not want to get blocked in .. we do not have to go out but I believe in being prepared as I could get called into work some snow fun is for later and we have Beef Stroganoff in the crock pot blubbing away

My wonderful neighbours had already shoveled part of my walk for me by the time I dragged my sorry butt out into a landscape covered in hideous white crap. Why do people like this stuff? It's cold and wet. In fact, it's the very definition of cold and wet since it's really just piles of fluffy ice crystals. Ice is always evil. I still can't figure out why anyone would volountarily leave a perfectly good house to flounder around in this kind of mess while wearing planks on their feet. I think they all must be mad.

I just finished shoveling out the car. I probably won't be able to convince myself to spend more time wallowing around in cold, white crap today, so my street motorcycles are going to have to wait another day to be rescued. At least they're under covers and the race bike is in the shed. Ugh.

All is well here. Snow has stopped and the sky is blue. I shoveled and shoveled and shoveled this morning. Driveway is clear. Dog is very happy. He loves when I shovel the snow right into his face so he can eat it.
Roads are very clear. I'm impressed.

Stay safe everyone, I know it's still pretty bad up the coast!

It sounds like a day to hunker in and stay warm

. I've read that some folks can't open their doors!

In some way, it makes me nostalgic for Ohio.

Still have power but my poor pup, when confronted w/ 30+ inches of snow, drifts, and 50mph gusts, has decided it's neither interesting nor cute to do her duty outside today -- and I don't blame her one bit.

alexri · 02-09-2013, 01:16 PM

Soooo... I may have underestimated my snowfall just a tad. I'm closer to 18 inches but still nowhere near as bad as some of the people in CT and MA that are around the 3 feet mark. I'm reading updates from friends on Facebook who are talking about downed trees and power lines.

Three hours outside shoveling (including breaks to rest) and I'm done... at least, until the plows come by and then rebury the driveway.

The forecast has rain coming in on Monday. That's a concern for anyone with a flat roof (garages, businesses, etc.) because the extra weight of the rain trapping into the already heavy snow could risk a collapse.

had to walk it home because city transit was not running and staff coming on duty were saying drivers were not doing so sporty on the roads. Walking sucked, I kid you not. The sidewalks were not plowed any better this afternoon than they were this morning.... so I walked in the street for severeal stretches of the way.

One of the boys was really concerned I had to walk home. He asked that I call and let them know I made it home safe... Damnit man, I love my job!!

Teddybear · 02-09-2013, 04:37 PM

well I have moved more then 2 tons of snow to dig out 1 car and get it turned around so all i have to do is drive out in the am.

IT will be a tight fit but ms cinn will be able to pull into the drive tonite she will just have to move it in the am so I can go to work tg it wont b like 3 am.

I will b glad when its all gone

I can't imagine a whippet in deep snow! They have like the lowest BMI of the entire animal kingdom. But at least she doesn't have to deal with salt getting jammed up between the little velvety pads of her paws.

she loves it but we keep a close eye on her and she is not out for long she loves to burrow in it then she throws herself at me to be picked up

Bless my hipster landlord, in his neon green snow pants (no hat

), wrangling a snowblower through the mountains of drifts that surround the house.

Here are a couple of photos I took this morning:

Cosmo after having stepped off the front porch step

My car is the lump on the right

I've got to go take care of that soon before it becomes a volvo-cicle.

The garden that we traversed to get to the bike path, the drift to the left is the gas grill, and in the center the outdoor table and chairs.

Another view from the garden, of the table and chairs
