bluemt1988 Posted January 9, 2011 Report Posted January 9, 2011 If anybody hasn't checked the latest from accuweather aka "hype machine" they're forecasting a major snowstorm this week (tuesday-wednesday). Even though accuweather is so far off with their data I love reading about it and looking at forecasted snowfall maps to stay stoked! Usually let me down but o well! 50 miles could mean crippling to nothing. Crippling in certain parts of PA is starting to become 4-5 inches of snow. Schools are closing when there is 2 inches on the ground. I'm hoping for a paralyzing snow storm! Quote
Kyle Posted January 9, 2011 Report Posted January 9, 2011 as much as the snowboarder in me wants it to snow a shit load, i hope it doesnt. i work in a grocery store as a produce department supervisor and shit hits the fan when that 4 letter word is tossed around. Quote

Â Ditto. My flight leaves at 2 on Wednesday and I don't want it to be delayed Quote

bluemt1988 Posted January 9, 2011 Author Report Posted January 9, 2011 Well I hope you guys can get out of here with no delays. That's no fun. Quote
bluemt1988 Posted January 9, 2011 Author Report Posted January 9, 2011 Woahoo! Hoping for a foot also! Would be nice to get those guys out where ever they are going tho! Quote
bluemt1988 Posted January 9, 2011 Author Report Posted January 9, 2011 Might come up and join ya if I'm off. I'll let ya know if I'm coming. Quote
bluemt1988 Posted January 9, 2011 Author Report Posted January 9, 2011 I live in macungie. Near emmaus. If it gets epic out I'll def post pics. I'm always out in snow storms doing something. Storm looks impressive. Hopefully shows her ugly face and dumps on us. Quote
bluemt1988 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Posted January 10, 2011 Ya 96 and 93 were nuts. 96 was worse for this area but the 93 super storm costed in damage much more. It was almost a billion in damage at that time. Parts of the south saw 50+ inches. Your talking to the guy that always researches the worst storms in history as added stoke to hopefully one day be in one that was as bad as the 1977 one. Love watching videos on YouTube of the worst snow storms in history. Quote
toast21602 Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Toast you and your Mount Baker crew might be OK...as of now it's saying most of the snow will end by 7AM Wednesday...just in time for Blue's groomers to do their thing!!!! Â That's what I heard too. We gave some flexibility just in case. Quote
bluemt1988 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Posted January 10, 2011 Looks like it will be an interesting storm especially if accuweather hasn't even posted amounts yet for our area. Usually shit is plastered all over there front page. Seems like they are still a little uncertain. Quote

If someone sneezes the wrong way, we could get 50% less snow. Quote
Johnny Law Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 some models moving west with more QPF still better than that r word Quote
toast21602 Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Noaa says 4 or more in philly and 6 or more in the LV. That works for me. Quote
RootDKJ Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 I'm down for a Wednesday pow day. Â Quote
Justo8484 Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 flying out of PHL. i'm contemplating taking the train to the airport now. dealing with the potential parking lot that the schuylkill might turn into is not high up on my list of things to do wednesday. Quote

bluemt1988 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Posted January 10, 2011 (edited) Hoping it changes when we wake up tomorrow and we get into the 6-12. Edited January 10, 2011 by bluemt1988 Quote
bluemt1988 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Posted January 10, 2011 Geeze now they are saying 4 inches or more instead of 6. Gay Quote
bluemt1988 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Posted January 10, 2011 Haha true. I might go to blue tomorrow night if it gets epic Quote
owenskier Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 supposed to be driving up to ny to gore tomorrow and not leaving til 6/7 pm- hoping that will be early enough to get just ahead of the storm then skiing wednesday at gore and thursday at stratton most likely!! Hoping to have some nice powder for both days! Quote
bluemt1988 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Report Posted January 10, 2011 Storm isn't suppose to start in the Lehigh Valley till around 7pm tomorrow night. Not even bothering going to blue tomorrow night as the heavy stuff isn't coming till 2-3am. Hope you get dumped on up there and get some pow! Gore has been doing well with the lake effect storms lately. When I was at whiteface someone said Gore was really nice! Quote
