To all you boaters here on the east coast, this snow is my fault! :smt021

I took the shrink wrap off yesterday and started prepping the boat for an April 1st splash.
 
Don't be so hard on yourself... I too am to blame as I too was down at Gunpowder on Friday sea trialing one of the pre-owned sea rays for sale there.... I feel that being out on the bay in the 57 degree weather I too am at fault...

NO worries thought it will be melted away by Thursday with the rain...
 
Thanks alot for takin' the cover off... LOL. Couldnt you have dont that in early February so we could get warm already!!! hehehehe. ;)
 
Thanks BIll, How about South East. It's snowing as I speak in Atlanta, Ga. 10:45 am. First snow in a year or two. The good thing is it will be gone by morning. 69 degrees by Thurs. Let' go to the lake!!!!!
 
Yeah...nice job! It's already snowing here in MA....WTF?? This was the first time I saw my lawn in months!
 
The local forcast for NJ says 6 to 10 inches tonight with another 3 to 5 tomorrow. :smt013
 
Up to a foot here in Connecticut today! I guess I will just have to go skiing...
 
Bill, I'll share some of that blame also. I jumped into the boat sat. and started to make the boat ready for the coming spring. :-( how do you guys make that hammer thing work???!!!!!!!!!
 
In an effort to counter the snow karma brought on by Bill removing his shrink wrap too early, I just finished getting my old John Deere with its snowblower ready. Now it will probably rain.
 
I almost did the same but decided 2 more weeks to play it safe. Cape Cod winters are unpredicatble but we will be in the water by April 1 for sure

Good men have been strung up for lesser crimes. Hope the boys will let you slide.

Best regards,

After what was billed as "THE STORM OF THE CENTURY" by our local weathermen a couple of years ago which "dumped" about an 1/8th of an inch of snow, I think I'll wait till Monday to see if I'll get mad at you.
 
Was going to make a weekend trip to Charleston but had to cancel. So today I sat home fiddling around :smt024 and watched a cold all day rain. Current temp is 39 and snow is a few miles west heading our way. We have not seen snow of any amount in probably 7 years here in western SC. GO AWAY! :smt013
 
3-6 inches are expected in Charlotte tonight but it will be 70 by the weekend. Of course those 3-6 inches will shut the city down tomorrow as well. :grin:
 
I am originally from Birmingham, AL. My brother called me from there and said they had 4" on the ground at noon and it was still snowing...another paralyzed area if the elevated Interstate 65 & 20/59 freeze tonight.
 
Hey. I am flying out of Phl tomorrow.
Admiral flying into Newark late tomorrow night.

Personally, I can deal with snow delays (been there, done that. . .I expect to lose luggage, be insulted, get poor service, drink heavily at airport bar, spend night at airport hotel). I have my travel people on speed dial.

But when one hour after departure time, with no plane in sight and the flight still listed as "on time", I expect to get some very nasty phone calls from the admiral.
 
Bill, I won't complain, we usually have snow and cold around here till April or so. I am used to it. We hope its warm enough by mid May

Time to get mad....It's snowing pretty steady here along the coast for a little over an hour now.....it was supposed to start as rain mixing to snow....they may have actually UNDER estimated this one....
 
My wife is currently driving through Richmond on her way home... she called and said it's pretty ugly. They are getting 6-10" tonight.
