Worcester (just west of Boston) has 25" already (as of 8am EST), they will probably end up with over 3 ft. Boston (right by the water) will end up close to 2ft. I am between the two and will get somewhere in-between 2 and 3 ft. Lots of people without power down by the coast, hopefully we wont lose power later as the stronger wind comes inland. |

I sooooo wish OP was in the middle of Boston right now. Come on up and show us what you're made of, OP. We could all use a good laugh.

While we won't meet their predictions, in all fairness, it is still snowing here. I'm glad I got to leave early last night and didn't have to go in today. Hopefully the roads will be decent tomorrow.

I remember the drive way edges having snow pack in June after being stacked 8' in February and parking lot lights still surrounded with snow/ice into August

Seriously though, OP, the mid-Atlantic up through NYC has about 5 times the population and a whole lot less space than the midwest. Hence why the traffic sucks even during good weather. |

Sigh, some areas have to declare a snow emergency to ban road travel because their population is too ignorant and lacks the common sense to do it on their own.

ya so 60 mph winds and drifts up to 4ft life should just be normal in major metropolitan cities. What's wrong with you ? It's like these idiots way the hell up in Maine with populations of 4 people saying 3 ft is just another Tuesday while they sit home all day and wait for .gov cheese. it's a little different when you have populations of over 200k people. |

The travel ban is just a way to let the plows and police work. They never actually prosecute people who need to go out. If you saw what the roads look like near me (20 miles north of Boston) you wouldn't want to be out on the roads anyway. Snow drifts up to 2' and there are still hours to go.

It looks like 18" or so, here, 12 miles east of Hartford, CT, but it's still snowing.
I think our highways have only been shut down once before, but our brave governor, whom we just re-elected, wants to look like a hero. Besides ... it's for the children, don't you see. ETA: The assholes are saying that New York City "Dodged a Bullet" so I guess NYC ran away and hid somewhere, while the storm went by. Idiots! |

I've got over 20" in my yard so far (less than 40 mins from Boston), and there's many hours to go. Boston is still supposed to get upto 24". In the city the issue is clearing the snow as there's nowhere to put it. I'm sitting on 14 inches right now (not counting drifts) and are expecting anoth 12-15. This is a serious storm. |

The purpose of all news and weather broadcasters is to make money. They sell advertising to make money. Nobody wants to advertise on a show that says, there is going to be a nor'easter tomorrow.
But they will advertise on the show that talks about the looming POLAR VORTEX induced SNOWPOCALPYSE that is going the spin off several POLARBEARNADOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

It'd simple! It's the "pussyfication" of America.
The liberals have taken over the Government and all the Pussy liberals who wet their pants if they aren't taken care of by big brother cause this shit. Oh dear, Oh my what are we to do? There is a snow flake in the forecast so we better shut the state down!! The only FLAKES that are around my house are the mayors of the cities who "just have to protect" the dumb ass liberals that keep voting them into office because they can't fend for themselves. I live in the country and have to fend for my family and myself no matter what the government does. EBR666 |

Prudent precautions. They were predicting 30 - 36" by me, and as we all know, meteorologists are seldom wrong. 
Plus, Liberal Democrats are at their happiest when they get to ban something. You're onto something. East coast politicians (well, most politicians), get off, almost sexually, to be able to shut down the entire state or region, with threats of arrest. They really do get off to that shit. |

Umm I am 15 mins west of boston and we have 24 inches and counting. I know our midwestern brothers may scoff, but when someone says the words nor'easter and 36 inches of snow, you listen. We lucked out it was so cold where I am, but those on the coast got creamed. 24 inches of heavy wet snow and flooding. |

Last January, the snow caused Alabama to shut down. Plenty of people abandoned cars around the Birmingham metro area on the interstates. It took me an hour to get home when it usually takes less than ten minutes.
Two weeks ago the school superintendent delayed the start of school for 2 hours because of the cold, it was in the high single digits, low teens that morning. |
