When I left for work at 8am, we already had at least a foot, and it was still coming down pretty heavily. My husband spent 2 hours shoveling our driveway and sidewalk this morning and by the time he was done, you could barely tell he'd been out there. The drive in was pretty treacherous - roads had been cleared maybe once, but probably had 4-5" of new snow on them, and the visibility was AWFUL. I'm hoping the drive home is a little bit better... :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2710101 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 10:29:49 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 2710101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!

I'm on Long Island and my area turned mostly into sleet. But it's so windy outside I"m glad they closed everything anyway! I just hope this ice is shovel-able.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709979 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 08:18:02 +0000 ValentineMommy 2709979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They called for 8-12" here in NJ. It was supposed to start last night around 8pm. Woke up this morning to......icy rain. There's less than 1/2" lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709971 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 08:07:04 +0000 farawayyama 2709971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. We are getting 8-12 inches. Not as bad as some but still time off work (I teach) and being cooped up in our 1000 sf home all day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709933 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 06:44:15 +0000 knittylady 2709933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's started here in Maine! Is it sadthat I'm already counting down to bedtime??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709917 Tue, 14 Mar 2017 05:22:27 +0000 NCSUchick27 2709917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, we were supposed to get 6-10 inches of snow, but we are currently getting a lot of sleet. I hope it changes back over to snow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709890 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 22:13:10 +0000 Andrea 2709890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Snow!! I am excited!! I'm hoping we don't lose power, but we do have a generator. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709839 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 19:35:10 +0000 Canoli 2709839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Looks like it. I live in South Jersey close to Philly so at home we may get less than the city. It's annoying! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709759 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 17:07:19 +0000 Mamaof2 2709759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They just closed all schools!!!<br /> Let the snow begin! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709696 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 15:48:15 +0000 PinkElephant 2709696@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: Thanks! DH seems to think our powers the whole house....according to our neighbors, this place was blazing with light/heat during Sandy when everyone else was w/o power for ages. Hopefully we won't have to find out!!!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709680 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 15:18:44 +0000 DesertDreams88 2709680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was 90 degrees over the weekend sooooooo no :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709679 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 15:16:37 +0000 ottilie 2709679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're supposed to get 12-18 inches at least, and I'm sad about it. I don't mind the snowstorm itself, exactly, but all that snow will linger for a while and it feels like we JUST got rid of what we'd had before. We were starting to play outside again! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709678 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 15:08:15 +0000 mrskansas 2709678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm jealous. I've seen like 1/2 an inch of snow this year and it was gone in a few hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709669 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 14:43:37 +0000 snowjewelz 2709669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep 12-18! Everything is already closed tomorrow. So far my work even said delay opening on Wed, I guess it depends how soon/late the snow ends on Tue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709665 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 14:36:38 +0000 looch 2709665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant: It only runs a few items, like the stove, fridge and a few lights. I think it will also run a few outlets, but they're in the kitchen. Not sure how useful it's going to be, but our electrician made the recs on what to put on it and we went with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709658 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 14:30:00 +0000 808love 2709658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Eek...did you put away winter gear already and have to haul it out again? We are going skiing next month and I was hoping for some used gear sales, late season but guess that won't happen now.<br /> This weather is crazy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709646 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 14:23:53 +0000 PinkElephant 2709646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: Does it only run major appliances/lights/heat? Curious b/c we recently moved into a home with a GIANT industrial gas generator....but haven't yet tested it out. So I'm not sure what we will have functional if we need to rely on it. I was assuming it would power our outlets, but now I wonder if I'm wrong!!!! I hope not! I think there's a decent chance we will lose power, unfortunately :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709644 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 14:21:53 +0000 PinkElephant 2709644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tri-state area (&lt;20 miles outside NYC) and seeing conflicting reports....we could get slammed up to 2 ft, we could get under a foot....but regardless I think the trouble will be the winds! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709610 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 13:50:17 +0000 Bibliolove 2709610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wish! I miss big snowstorms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709593 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 13:37:23 +0000 cascademom 2709593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're at a few inches in a suburb of Chicago. A lot of it is lake effect snow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709571 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 13:26:05 +0000 MrsF 2709571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep - looks like about 18 inches. And I have to work and don't have covered parking there so I'll be shoveling out after and then driving home an hour (or 2 or 3 depending on the conditions) :bummed: </p> <p>Sorry. My pregnant butt is super cranky. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709568 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 13:20:17 +0000 looch 2709568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. I am hoping we don't lose power because both my husband and I will have to work. Our back up generator isn't wired to run our computers, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709557 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 13:14:32 +0000 catlady 2709557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, and I am pretty annoyed about it. Daycare already had a planned day off this week for professional development so if the storm ends up as bad as they are predicting, my kids may only get 2 days of care this week. My maternity leave ended last week so this is not a great start to getting back to work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709500 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 12:15:50 +0000 yerpie110 2709500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. 12-18, with a possibility of 24+! I don't love it, but at least it's march and will melt faster than it would in January! Happy to stay home tomorrow at least (office already closed) :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709494 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 12:13:14 +0000 Alba4 2709494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! They are saying between 12-20 inches north of NYC. I'm excited. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709489 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 12:08:17 +0000 JennyG 2709489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, and I'm so excited. This Maine girl in PA was missing the snow this year. My DS is SOOOO excited to play in it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709486 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 12:06:24 +0000 bubblegum 2709486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I'm hoping my office closes but either way I probably won't come in if it's bad in the morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709474 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 11:58:44 +0000 IRunForFun 2709474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, we are supposed to get 12 to 18 inches. I'm praying we don't lose power!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-getting-hit-by-the-snow-storm#post-2709473 Mon, 13 Mar 2017 11:57:17 +0000 PeaceLily 2709473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm in NY (suburbs just outside the city) and we are expected to get 18 - 24 inches. My office is already closed for tomorrow. :happy: </p>
