Just looking at the higher res GFS stuff and this is just total weather porn. It's absolutely a jaw dropping storm.

The weird thing is this looks like a winter storm we'd remember if it occurred in January or February. Pre-halloween has got to be a 1 in multi-hundred year event.

I'm not sure I've ever heard you this excited. Truly a once in a lifetime event if it happens as progged, boxing day will be a distant memory. Looking forward to watching you guys over the weekend...good luck!

I think Spyker out of Holland or something was supposed to be buying them..or maybe along with some Chinese or Indian people. Sweden wants them to survive to save the jobs, etc. Remember the 80's when every 30-something Yuppy Babyboomer wanted one of those classic look Saabs.

I just read an article comparing Saab to Volvo - and that their fates were determined by the buyer... Saab was bought by an entrepreneur named Muller (of Spyker) and Volvo got bought by a Chinese conglomerate.

But I guess there is news from today about another deal... good lord, the Chinese own everything now!

The fact that the low goes se of NY and the dynamics go through the roof might allow that ra/sn line to come awfully close to the NYC area and stay there. As long as the low does not go too far nw...this may change to snow down there quicker than we think. Something to watch anyways down there.

Ahh ...GM took them over and made sure that their entire distinctive look was gone.... So they looked like any old Honda, BMW, etc.

Yup. Love the pre-94 classic Saabs. Totally underappreciated. Stick a turbo in there with a manual transmission, and you have a really fun driving car.

Yeah NYC could get pummeled. LGA could be +RA while JFK is +RASN and NYC is +SN

Oh that's awesome, so that should slow it a bit right where we want it to slow. Have you upped your call yet? I'm at 5-10 but thinking 6-12 or 8-14 might do it.

Waiting on the king, Thinking 8-10" or 12 somewhere in there, If we can flip quick enough, Probably the higher end
