    I know this is a little regional and I'm not usually one to obsess about the weather but NYC and much of the Northeast is expecting more than two feet of snow tomorrow night, so I figured it's worth a thread...

    I think we're supposed to get an inch or so. It's 50 degrees in DC right now.

    And the DC area grocery stores have a lot of empty shelves this afternoon.

    Somewhere between a foot and a half and three feet here, plus coastal flooding, hurricane force gusts, etc. It's our first "storm of the century" in two whole years.

    I'll believe it when I see it here in Vermont.

    Media in full blizzard hype, as if we'll all be riveted to our TVs watching coverage. We were out and about the next day after the Blizzard of '78, didn't lose power. Fun to watch people who live in a "snowy" state hoarding food, gasoline and other things, as if the stores will be closed for weeks.

    It's gonna be hell on people getting out and getting to Glendale. Hope they booked an early flight.

    There's supposed to be some sort of Patriots send-off rally downtown at lunchtime tomorrow. I wonder if they'll cancel it to make sure the team gets out of town.

    Don't worry, the cold will condense 12 inches of snow down to 3 inches. At least that's what Belichick told me.

    65, sunny and dry here. We did, however, catch a shit ton of rain off this thing late last week.
