Almost everybody on the board is going to be freaking out by lunchtime or so. Thunder in RIC is very telling. The main show is really only getting started.

Woke up at 4:30, kid woke up at 5, ended up staying up.. It's been a long wait for a payoff! It's finally sticking to the street down here in 20851.

terpsnation Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I was rather disappointed when I woke up and the scene outside looked almost identical to what it was when I went to sleep at 3. Bob Chill has calmed my nerves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're good. It may not be the widespread 12"+ that people were hoping for. I stuck with 6-8 for a long time irt expectations but bumped it to 8-10 last night. I think my late call is good but not much upside bust potential. Well, i suppose I could bust low if this stayed over my house all day: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhineasC Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I wish everyone who is getting good snow the best and good luck. It is over for those not getting the rates. The storm look pretty crappy IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
