Plenty of wine, canned beans, and fuel for the generator.... good to go !!!
Forecasters are predicting 18" to 24" of snow, sustained winds of 40 - 45 mph
with gusts nearing 70 mph, and temperatures hovering around the freezing mark.
This will make for an extremely wet and heavy snowfall, with plenty of downed trees
taking power lines with them.....could mean substantial loss of power.
I'm like a kid expecting and waiting for a storm day / no school day ....  crazy2
Think I'll go into town today and watch all the loonatics scramble around....
Maybe I'll get underfoot and pi$$'em off   Evil

Agree Terry, Maine is going to get whacked hard by this one.  I'm in Metro West Boston and dodged a bullet with the Thursday storm.  Only got 9.5 inches of snow.  Got another 2.5 inches last night.  5 to 8 inches are expected over the course of the Sunday - Monday storm.  Not too bad.

Thankfully my old snow blower is still working great.  I only run premium gas with fuel stabilizers in it and thoroughly drain the carburetor in spring so I've not had problems.   I'm all gassed up and ready for the next storm.

Storms are fun, but losing power sucks so I hope you don't lose it.  Keep us posted.

 Cool

Still calling for 18" to 24"... possible 36" in certain locations !!!
Should see it start early tomorrow afternoon and go into Monday evening...
Will clean the foot plus off the roof tomorrow morning, in anticipation of 'more to come'
Hoping it stays more on the light n fluffy side and not heavy and wet like cement....
The Toro snowblower will get a workout Monday.....
