Those of us here on the East Coast are about ready to be dumped on, literally. In my area they are talking about 18" of snow!

I wish I was a lot further south sailing!

To those of us about to be dumped on, I sympathize. To those who are sailing...Lucky dogs!

Bad O, like the "lemons/lemonade" thing, you have to look at the bright side of the impending blizzard- Govenment offices will be closed and can do no wrong! Okay... back to the movie with Sophia Loren :)

Well, there must be rum! But under these conditions I recommend some warmed cider, 2 jiggers of Barbados rum, and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Yep...Gov. will be closed. EXCEPT, those of us who are required employees. I am working during the worst of the storm and I am the shift supervisor for my department (Police). Fun times

I am already feeling it.. ordered lobsters from Maine yesterday (a gift) and FedEx is late.. They are telling me that they will try to deliver them before 8PM.. Nice .. Strange thing to me is that there is no huge storm yet..

They call us "essential" unless it's contract time!

Well this time of the year with ample wind and cooler temperatures marks the best of our all year sailing season so after suffering through a long hot summer which lasted all the way into December I will be gladly gloating while sitting in the cockpit, having a cold one and wondering what you all are doing. Stay safe.

Snow storm? What snow storm? It hasn't not snowed here in a week and a half. Rochester/Buffalo/Syracuse. Blasted weather man keeps talking about Snow Bands and I keep going out to hear the music and all I get is frostbite. 2 boat drinks please. Maybe that way I won't care. :mad:

The DC Metro Area got 1.0 inches of snow last evening about rush hour and gridlock ensued. Our folks are not cut from the same cloth as you folks in the Frozen North.
