Idiotic post. This is forecast to be a historically big storm, so obviously it is big news. Just like cold snaps and heat waves happen every single year, if it's one of historic proportions then obviously it will be big news. Nobody is trying to make it seem like the end of the world.

You weren't around back in the old days when this was a normal occurrence. It was a welcome change from the 100 degrees with 100% humidity all summer.

Yep, back in the day when NYC used to get eight foot snowstorms every week. Back when the snow was up to Godzilla's dick. You youngsters don't know how good you have it.

Nice! Pretty impressive that such a warm climate overall is still able to get snow.

Mount Holly raised their totals.

WTF?! I knew I wasn't seeing things. Models kept going up with the totals. WTF?


And now Upton goes up... way up! 12-18" for southern CT.


18-24" for NYC and Long Island. We have been NAM'd?
