    Yep the nyc weather people just love to blow shirt out of proportion. And the dumbarse people fall for it. I'll bet any money that the grocery stores are packed tonight with the Dumbbells loading up on bread and milk !

    You should hear it here Fatboy. They make a huge deal of a storm coming in, blow it way up. Then the city gets all of their sanding trucks out ready to roll. Then we get 1/2 inch and it's gone before noon. But schools get started late some even close for the day. I just laugh so hard at there idiot liberals who can't even wipe their own ARs by themselves.

    They do the same thing here FB,we had our 1st somewhat storm of the year Thursday(about 5"-6")...unfortunately I needed groceries that day,drove by grocery store...jammed with cars/people:banghead....I said "Fck dat" stopped in corner store and grabbed a quart of milk...had 45 beer in the fridge,so I'm good for a couple of days:D.
    If it were a bad storm and we lost power for a week,what the hell they gonna do with all that food they just bought...Doesn't anybody have anything in their house that could carry them over for a few days:rolleyes:

    In North Carolina it was funny as chit when it snowed. Farmers got out their Allis chalmers tractors and drivers off the road in the dozens because it doesn't dawn on some to slow the heck down. And then its gone the next day and your still in the ditch,lol.

    Up here we call them Massholes and guess where they're from?LOL

    4x4 means if you go at a safe and reasonable speed you may maintain upright structurally speaking,lol. My dodge ram 1500 quad cab is a little to upright then say a subaru outback which seems to be the preferred vehicle up here.

    Not a traction issue but a wind throwing the front end and back end about. A spin out almost happens in slow motion. At first either the rear or front ends move left to right slightly, then swings the other way but this time the swing seems a little wider and so forth and so on and your neither suppose to hit brakes or gas. Don't need to, the sway will eventually sling ya pretty good,lol

    Summer bring the Massholes here on the Bridgeport/Port Jefferson ferry. They are worse than NYholes!

    Not here, we got some wide open spaces, except for Portliberaland. But the traveling is good out here. Same in AZ except for Phoenix.

    Take the New London to Orient Point ferry. Come before the end of June or after sept 30. Go to Greenport take a short ferry to Shelter Island drive across to another ferry to Sag Harbor. Then drive east to Montauk.
