All of the long range weather models are currently zeroing in on the potential of a once-in a generation Nor'Easter/Superstorm forming over the South, and bring 6+ inches of snow to Maine to Virginia to Arkansas back toward the South West. 40 million people could see 6+ inches of snow from this, and 80 million+ will be impacted

Accompanying the storm will be severe thunderstorms, with hail, torrential rain, tornadic activity, flooding, and amazing wind, as the storm bombs out. 

Weather forecasters at www.nws.noaa.gov are already referring to the storm as a once in a 20 year type event, to be categorized with the greatest of Nor'Easters, such as the Blizzard of 1996, both President's Day Storms, and The March 1993 Superstorm. 

In terms of impact, the entire country east of the Mississippi will be impacted either directly or indirectly from the strength of the storm.

I'm quite excited.  Shame I'll be home by then...my university will get 18 inches of snow and 40 mph sustained winds out of this, probably with lots of thunder and lightning.

You've been warned.

OMG, better get ready for this. *runs out to the next Aldi to get supplies*

awesome, great birthday present

awesome, great birthday present

I thought you were talking about motorstorm 2. :p

Crap, I fly home for Christmas that day. I guess I should bring a travel pillow so that I can catch a nap in the airport.

I live in the UK and everything grinds to a halt after 3 flakes of snow fall, if we had the kind of weather your describing it would end up like 'The Day After Tomorrow'.

Oh god that's the day of my Anatomy Final. ;_;

Actually, I made a typo.  Most places will get hammered before Monday.  Sat/Sun where I am in PA/NJ.  Fri/Sat in the south and midwest.  Sun/Monday north of NYC.  Monday for Maine and Boston and the mountains of Northern New England. 

Conditions in newfoundland on Tuesday should be ridiculous:

80 mph sustained winds

30-35 degrees farenheit

snow, sleet, rain, freezing rain

thunder, lightning

20+ foot waves

In Syracuse NY, the cars have to literally be stuck in snow unable to move because its so deep before people will stop driving. Syracuse University has only had 1 FULL snow day in the last 10 years. Last February during the snow storm near valentines day SU actually closed for a half day (from noon onwards), but all my classes were done by then.

So I laugh at this storm. hahahaha. If its really going to be as bad as 93, i might actually get a day off from work due to snow, which would be awesome, but I highly doubt it.
