OT: Snowmaggedon 2026

[WhatJustHappened]

This will be the first big storm in about 4 years,and I hate it already.

Started snowing about an hour or so ago, and I'm 20 mins south of Gillette.

 

[WhatJustHappened]

Snowing Hard now.

They’re discussing the value of that Denver moneyline lol..

I am in Pennsylvania somewhat near the Scranton area, but up in the "mountains". It has been snowing since around 5 AM. We have maybe 8 inches so far. My two weather apps both say 22+ inches by end of the day. Have gone out and cleared the deck and driveway once thus far, will do so at least once more, just so we don't get overwhelmed... I am just hoping we don't lose power and I can see the game!!!

They wouldn't change a thing. TV $ would trump any safety concerns.

We’ll never know but a buddy of mine is a state trooper who sometimes works the games, he told me a few days ago that if Buffalo won there was a good chance of it, if the states tells Kraft they can’t spare the resources then that’s it.

If it's cold where you are, I question your sanity.

45 minutes from Foxboro so it’s cold and snowing.

Oddly enough, here in the Atlanta area we also got some rare winter mix. There’s about .75 inches of ice on our driveway and trees. My poor kids are outside playing in the”the snow “. They’ve never seen a Nee England blizzard so this is as close as they get

I know you’re a young man, but be careful with your back and heart with all that shoveling! We don’t want you going on IR.

I’m guessing this game would’ve been moved to tomorrow night.

Highly doubt it

Luckily the true winter is fairly short even though it feels long.

As a sports fan I feel blessed. I've seen from Russell to Maye and everyone in between in every sport. And all within and hour's ride until I moved away 6 yea

I’ve got a 3500w generator that will help with small appliances and whatever. Going to get a bigger one to be able to power the downstairs heat pump/air. So far so good though. Plenty of beer and food…

I went with a geo thermal heat pump so I need a really large generator. I'm rethinking things and may go with a wall of batteries. Though the heat pump has reduced the cost for heating and cooling tremendously.

I found the NE winter to drag on not wanting to let go.

My car was always dirty. Where I am now winter is about 3 months and pretty much over by St Pats day.

Funny you mention a dirty car. I caught a great high 40 degree day and gave her a wash not that long ago. Looked awesome. A little less than a day later it was filthy again.

As far as winter-like weather we have about a month and a half to go.

Hardy New Englanders report: sidewalks here are full of snow…and joggers.

 

[Halifax_Pats_Fan]

Its 5 F here and sunny. No snow yet but its coming...

New heat pumps are beasts. Mines newer and cranks, even down to single digits.

Road game for me today. Hunkered down in Albany instead of trying to drive back to Virginia, into the teeth of the storm last night after spending the day securing my plane ahead of the incoming weather. It was brutal, 10 degrees in 12 mph (est). winds. Just started snowing here, at 9am ET. There’s a sports bar across the street on one corner, an Irish pub on the other, and a big flat screen in the warm cozy hotel. Decisions, decisions…. Hmm, hotel bar is closed, so no beer here, narrows the field… Whatever…

GO PATS!

Right over the river from ya, you ain't going anywhere till tomorrow haha.

My eldest son lives in Albany. I guess RI wasn’t cold and snowy enough for him.

I also have a geothermal, it's a ground source, though. It's not really feasible to run it off of a generator unfortunately, I agree. Complicated. But I also agree that it has been very cost effective with heating and cooling

I woke up to another beautiful day in southern CA. Going to be clear skies and 67 degrees!

Same. Watching this game in shorts and a t shirt.
