Let It Snow

firstdown · 01-29-2010, 01:41 PM

Well it looks like Va. is going to get hit tonight and tomorrow with a pretty big show storm. They are calling for up to 10" in the Va. beach area which will be one of the largest snow storms we have had in years. I have a full tank of gas, wife hit the grocery store, fire wood ready, couple movies rented, and I'll hit the ABC store on the way home. My 3 yr. old is pretty pumped up and I spent a good part of my morning thry to buy a sled with not luck but I did find a belly board which will work. So any of you guys in the area getting ready for some snow?

FREEZING in PA today...around 0, possibly negatives with the windch-ch-ch-chillllll.

Crazy cold here today too, windchill of -4. No snow in the forecast though. Outside of one storm in December it's been a light winter as far as snow goes in my area. I'm not complaining.

It wasn't warm walking to class this morning in College Park. I had to switch which hand was holding the thermos, and which hand was in my coat pocket. My hands were burning.

yea, i have a 13 year old son and a 8 year old daughter and they are really looking foward to playing in some snow because it's such a rareity(sp) aroung this place. also, my wife is a 911 op.for va beach. she goes in tonight at 11 and was told to bring a sleeping bag and enough supplies to last up to 3 days. there's a chance her regular pay could switch over to FEMA pay and that would be some awesome $$.

in balmore were expected to only get 1 inch if that. i cant even complain about the 15-22 degree we are going to have this weekend considering the posters above me. last week it hit 60, this week it could 16.

Thats interesting. So what has to happen for it to switch over to FEMA pay? She will probably be pretty busy with the way people drive when we get just a little snow. The condition here are about as good as it gets for snow as its been pretty cold over the past several weeks and the forcast is calling for cold weather all week. I think I have asked you this before but what part of chesapeake do you live? Deep Creek?

The govoner has declared Va a state of emergency that does not up her pay? My office is located on Cedar Rd across the road from the Prince Of Peace Church and I live in Suffolk Va.

no, that won't up he pay. it has to be a city thing where pretty much all city employees are told to stay home unless you are considered ALPHA 1 (essential personel).

i live off cedar rd. (las gaviotas) my work is in suffolk (460)

I just can't imagine D.C. getting hit with another storm. All I have in the house to eat are chips, two slices of bread, chewing gum, and some Captain Morgan.

We probably pass each other everyday going and coming from work. My office is between las gaviotas and city all on the left coming from your house. I live about a mile from Sleepthole Golf Course. I guess sometime tomorrow they will go to Alpha 1 as it seems when we get a dusting they do that. I guess she then gets paid by ferderal standards. My buddy loved when they did work for the federal goverment because by law they had to be paid at a higher level.

This is ridiculous. Earlier this week I was stoked, was hoping I'd get classes canceled on Monday. But now they're calling for 2 inches or less. **** you snowstorm.
