Snow continues to change over to rain along the coast. By late Monday, FOX Weather meteorologists forecast almost no snow on the ground for much of the Washington Metro area, Philadelphia Metro area, New Jersey, New York City, Long Island and the Boston Metro area.

Much of Upstate New York, northern Pennsylvania, Northern Ohio, Virginia, New Hampshire and Maine will see up to a foot of snow before the storm is over. Higher elevations, the Great Lakes and the Southern Tier of New York could see up to two feet of snow.

Looks like a doozie in some spots

They haven’t given this storm a name?

[EvilCapitalist]

Yes. The weather channel calls it IZZY.

[DallasBiff]

I’s called winter and I trudged through the snow to get to school.

[SaveFerris]

Darn Global Warming!!

[EvilCapitalist]

I’m going to shoveling that Global Warming tomorrow morning.

Knock the ‘Rats on their collective butts.

[SaveFerris]

Don’t overdo it

Just in case

VA Governor Youngkin’s first big test: I-81.

Get those wind mills hummin’ and brush off your solars!

[HighSierra5]

Wait a minute. I thought by 2022 there would be Saguaro cacti growing in the northeast?

[dsrtsage]

Those kinds of storms used to be common in July before global warming

[Viking2002]

Yeah, remember that big pile-up on 81 Northbound about ten years ago? I drove through it the day after, and it was still a mess. Cars and trucks just pushed off into the snow bank on the shoulder, to get traffic moving again. 81 is a road warrior’s endurance test and always seems to be one snowflake away from a major closure.

O/T - Shitzburgh is done, KC is opening a can on them. Big Ben probably is done after this season.

Has not yet started here in NH but is getting close.

We’re due for the bulk of it starting about midnight.

[Bookwoman]

Uphill both ways.

[The Mayor]

Hitting us now in Bufallo, 12-24” expected

[metmom]

No kidding.

I-81 is a nightmare from Syracuse all the way down.

North of Syracuse, there’s nothing but Watertown so traffic is not usually a problem, however that section of 81 goes through the Lake Ontario snow belt and across Tug Hill so gets slammed regularly.

Sometimes they even have to break out the tanks from Fort Drum to pull the snowplows out of drifts.

[metmom]

What are conditions like?

I have family in Tonawanda so what you get, they get.

Good thing the game was last night.
