"You saw it here first" · 04:52 PM

Ok people--unless you have been living under a rock in this area you know about the big punch that Mother Nature is going to throw across a lot of the "Good Ole USA" I have to admit that I'm a weather junkie. I love the excitement of storms but not necessarily the aftermath that we have to deal with later.Here are some photos taken before "Armageddon" sets in for the Boston area.I know that many parts of the country and world have a lot more snow but for us in the Northeast corridor this is a big deal----charliezap

Now that's what I'd call Rug Up weather which we don't get here! Great shots.

The biggest problem with the snow in major metropolitan areas is where do you put it.It looks like Wed is going to be a snow day for me.My snow depth on the flat is over 2ft and where in I snowblowed it on the driveway is 4-5ft.---charliezao

Hunker down and keep the Jack Daniels (or whatever) near at hand, Capn. Ya'll have had your share of snow and cold this winter, that's for sure.

It' even gonna be cold here, with a record low of 25F for tomorrow night and hitting only about 40 on Wednesday. Chilly stuff for us thin blooded species.
