n_maher Posted March 2, 2018 Report Posted March 2, 2018 I live just a little above the 495 symbol, about 7mi as the crow flies from the coast. The idea of 20'+ waves hitting the NH coast is mental. This coupled with the near hurricane force winds could make for an interesting start to the weekend. 3
Hopstretch Posted March 2, 2018 Report Posted March 2, 2018 Wax up the surfboard brah! Whole bomb cyclone deal looks super gnarly -- positive waves from the West Coast. 1
dsavitsk Posted March 2, 2018 Report Posted March 2, 2018 We're out of coffee. New coffee is supposed to be delivered tomorrow. If it is delayed by the storm, it is going to be a long weekend ... 1 6
robm321 Posted March 2, 2018 Report Posted March 2, 2018 (edited) I can't even imagine. Here's hoping it makes it. Edited March 2, 2018 by robm321
Torpedo Posted March 2, 2018 Report Posted March 2, 2018 and some illuminati world leaders still will be defending that the climate is fine, not changing at all.

Kattefjaes Posted March 2, 2018 Report Posted March 2, 2018 I'd like to think that I'd run in there unarmed and sort that climate out myself.

mikeymad Posted March 3, 2018 Report Posted March 3, 2018 Sonja's return flight from Newark was canceled --- Fucked in snow - we think that tomorrow might work out. 4
skullguise Posted March 3, 2018 Report Posted March 3, 2018 My wife was in Florida, she preemptively changed her flight from yesterday to later tonight....she said literally 2 seats left from FL to Boston, across 3 different airports. Then, maybe 1 hour later, her original flight was cancelled. Very lucky.... We lost power at 8:30pm last night, just got it back at about 5:15 this morning. Made the best of it with LED candles, and lots of pages in my e-book read. Going soon to the fridge to check out what's good or not, think all will be good. Hope others made it through OK! 3
n_maher Posted March 3, 2018 Report Posted March 3, 2018 Nothing significant here. The rain quit around 5pm last night and from then on it's just been wind and nothing super extraordinary at that. Sounds like the coast got hammered though, with lots of coastal flooding which may not be over yet with another super high tide predicted for noon today. We saw our highest recorded tide in a long, long time yesterday at work which is saying something since we just did the same in January during the last bomb-cyclone (brah). And no hanging 10 for me, Stretch. I'd like to stay off the Darwin Awards list this year. 3

It's magical (must be from the future), but you can walk inside and purchase thousands of different items. 1 6

n_maher Posted March 3, 2018 Report Posted March 3, 2018 Drove out to the coast this morning to see how things looked at high tide. The sea was angry. The waves were pushing 10-15', certainly larger than I've ever seen on the NH coast, and doing some significant damage. The coastal road was only open for about a 1/4 at this particular high spot. The flooding on either side was impressive. 3

Electricity is out in the neighborhood where Mary and Lance are staying with my daughter. So Lance is doing homework in a coffee shop which is just like the library at home. I wonder if they can conduct a fencing tournament in the dark?
Dusty Chalk Posted March 3, 2018 Report Posted March 3, 2018 It would make for some very interesting judging.
guzziguy Posted March 5, 2018 Report Posted March 5, 2018 Of course, Steve uses a two-handed sword instead of a foil or epee. 2
skullguise Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 Sending out good thoughts to everyone hit by this latest East Coast storm. We're without power now, going on about 36 hours and counting. Also had some larger tree limbs come down across most of our driveway and into the street. A great neighbor with battery-powered chainsaw helped at least move pieces to either side of the driveway..... Karen got us a hotel for tonight, power isn't expected back until tomorrow sometime (we hope!). We're also picking son Andrew up at school tomorrow, wishing for a warm house upon return.... 1
