Randall Flagg Posted January 5, 2017 Report Posted January 5, 2017 Mmm yes, please dear Lake Effect snow band, settle down right over where I need to go at rush hour. I'm running for the door at 5. Elma better not be buried yet. I'm just on the other side of Marilla from Elma. Judging from what I can see, it's probably buried already. Quote
That Aud Smell Posted January 5, 2017 Report Posted January 5, 2017 ^ This has been a very strange band. It was supposed to whack metro/north Buffalo around 3:30ish, but then it stalled over Blasdell, OP, etc. Nothing doing in the city, unless you're in South Buffalo. Quote
darksabre Posted January 5, 2017 Report Posted January 5, 2017 You'd be better served running for the bar. If I wasn't currently recovering from yet another illness, that's where I'd be going. :wallbash: I'm just on the other side of Marilla from Elma. Judging from what I can see, it's probably buried already. Balls. ^ This has been a very strange band. It was supposed to whack metro/north Buffalo around 3:30ish, but then it stalled over Blasdell, OP, etc. Nothing doing in the city, unless you're in South Buffalo. Yeah, we were expecting it in Williamsville after lunch and it's only just lightly snowing here right now. Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted January 5, 2017 Report Posted January 5, 2017 I'm just on the other side of Marilla from Elma. Judging from what I can see, it's probably buried already. Marilla and Elma ... memories (some even fond) of my youth. Quote
That Aud Smell Posted January 5, 2017 Report Posted January 5, 2017 Yeah, I think Elma got socked. Be safe. Quote
Doohicksie Posted January 5, 2017 Report Posted January 5, 2017 The "Java Radar Loop" for Buffalo on Intellicast is impressive to watch. Stay safe guys. Quote
darksabre Posted January 5, 2017 Report Posted January 5, 2017 Elma-Lancaster border isn't too bad. Maybe 6" of light fluffy stuff. Quote
Doohicksie Posted January 6, 2017 Report Posted January 6, 2017 I believe one of the West Seneca elementary schools where kids are stranded is the one where my niece and nephew went when they were little. My brother lives just across Union Road from there. Quote
Jacque Richard Posted January 6, 2017 Report Posted January 6, 2017 Marilla and Elma ... memories (some even fond) of my youth.did you go to Iroquois?Elma-Lancaster border isn't too bad. Maybe 6" of light fluffy stuff. The dividing line is broadway it seems Yeah, I think Elma got socked. Be safe.we always did Quote
MattPie Posted January 6, 2017 Report Posted January 6, 2017 did you go to Iroquois? The dividing line is broadway it seems we always did No kidding, In recent experience, my wife's parents up on Centerline (in Wales) tend to have a few inches more than my parents in Elma. Quote
inkman Posted January 6, 2017 Report Posted January 6, 2017 Haha, you'd probably die inside my house. The thermostat better not kick on until it's 20 degrees outside. Hoodies and sweatpants, all winter long.And your wife has sex with you? Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted January 6, 2017 Report Posted January 6, 2017 And your wife has sex with you? I believe trying to get warm is the only way he can convince her to do so. Quote
ubkev Posted January 6, 2017 Report Posted January 6, 2017 And your wife has sex with you? Sure, I bought her another blanket for Christmas. Seriously, the thermostat is set at 67/68. But I do try to keep the bedrooms cooler because I hate being hot when I sleep(so does she!) Quote
That Aud Smell Posted January 6, 2017 Report Posted January 6, 2017 Sure, I bought her another blanket for Christmas. Seriously, the thermostat is set at 67/68. But I do try to keep the bedrooms cooler because I hate being hot when I sleep(so does she!) We have radiators, and the thermostat almost never goes above 64, unless Grandma is coming over. Grab a sweatshirt. Grab a scarf and light winter hat, even. Interestingly, the teenagers are generally okay with it -- that scarf and ubiquitous winter hat look remains sufficiently de rigueur. Quote

See, you go crazy with trying to fool us with Canadian spellings--I believe I saw "offencive" (which isn't even right in Canada) from you recently, and then you go posting about your Fahrenheit thermostat. We're onto you... Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted January 6, 2017 Report Posted January 6, 2017 did you go to Iroquois? No, but both my cousins did. I never lived in that part of NY, only lived in Pittsburgh for a while. Grew up in Toronto, but my mother is from Buffalo and her parents and sister lived in Elma. My one cousin still lives there. My cousin is a big shot NY state judge now ... hey, 11, if you read this you may know, or know of, him. Quote

We're onto you... Ha! I'm not fooling anyone. Not anyone worth fooling, anyway. Mentally, spiritually, emotionally - I continue to abide in Canada, at least from time to time. And then sometimes I even live there for extended stretches of time - when I'm lucky. But, yeah. I married a good American girl. The thermostat in our home mos def reads in Fahrenheit. No offence intended. On my honour. You won't see me getting defencive on the matter, either. Quote
Doohicksie Posted January 6, 2017 Report Posted January 6, 2017 Kind of funny, the local weather peeps here in Texas are excited that we're getting "Lake Effect Snow." Yes, that's exactly what it is, but the lakes here are more like ponds, and the snow coming off them won't even leave a dusting. Someone on FB left a comment on the NWS post about the snow: "Just like Buffalo!" To which I replied, "Yeah, except they get it by the foot." Quote
Doohicksie Posted January 6, 2017 Report Posted January 6, 2017 ...and now it's snowing in Ft Worth proper. Everyone's going home like it's the apocalypse. Per radar, looks like the snow will be done before rush hour, probably zero accumulation. Quote

MattPie Posted January 6, 2017 Report Posted January 6, 2017 I saw an awesome on earlier with break and milk photoshopped in. Quote

ubkev Posted January 6, 2017 Report Posted January 6, 2017 I saw an awesome on earlier with break and milk photoshopped in. I specifically will not buy bread and milk before a "storm" for that very reason. The mentality of "oh God! We'll never be able to leave the house again so we have to live on toast and milk for 1 day!!!" Seriously, how much of a jerk am I? Quote

The jerks flooding stores to buy irrational quantities of bread and milk are the jerks. Unless you're preparing for an apocalypse after which the only currency will be french toast, and you have your own chickens, none of it makes any sense. Quote
