The Day After Tomorrow?

 

A massive winter storm is churning as we speak. Meteorologists are saying this is perhaps the largest and most powerful winter storm system we have ever seen, affecting most everyone from Texas to New York. Some cities are bracing for 24"+, with possible snow drifts of up to 120"!! That's 10 feet of snow!

Yea, sadly life is going to have to go on regardless of the snow and ice. This new climate we're dealing with may very well become a new norm in the future, so a new normal routine is going to have to be developed by people.

meanwhile CNN and Fox News has gone wall-wall with the crisis in Egypt.

Tommorow 2/1/11 shall be intresting to see if this mega blizzard/ice storm gets any coverage.

 

Appx. 100-plus Million Americans or 2/3 of the country's population is affected by this possible historic storm.

 

The only other mega storm with this wide impact across America in recent history was the March 1993 superstorm.

IN, IL, and OK officials issued a Disaster Declaration. Never heard of that before! Several other states have declared emergency. OK is currently reporting thunder and lightening with snow. Dallas is reporting freezing rain, and temps 33° below average.

 

I love snow storms though! I always seem to find a reason to go out in them!

East NY do you remember superstorm I from March 1993? NYC got a foot of snow and places as far south as Alabama got buried with snow.

Oh no, this is the best winter I've ever experienced. It's been gorgeous to look at the fresh snow, and it hasn't been that cold (not 18 degrees as the high anyway).

I sure do! But one of the most memorable to me was when we got 26.9 in Feb. 2006 when the news said we would get 6-8"!

 

The Weather Channel is doing live coverage right now.

I was not much online on this site tonight because i been watching the 'pregame show' cough the local Chicago TV stations. Weathercasters are already predicting in the windy city for this possible historic storm to match or even break the Jan. 1967 blizzard which is the benchmark in modern Chicago history. Here link to tonight's 1/31/11 from ABC7 in chicago.:eek:

PS In 1993 i was at a small SUNY college outside Albany as our town got 2 1/2 feet of snow.

Tucson (2,200 feet) will feel an even more awesome cold than Phoenix.

 

KOLD TV CBS 13 is forecasting partly sunny and cool with a high of only 57 degrees and a low of 28 degrees.

 

Then on Wednesday February 2d, the forecast is mostly cloudy and a high of only 45 degrees with a low of 22 degrees (which would tie a record for Tucson's low temperature on February 2d). Winds are forecast to be NNW to NNE at 9 to 17 mph with gusts to 34 mph. Then Thursday is forecast to be sunny and a high of 45 degrees and a low of 23 degrees.

 

A 50 degree high in Phoenix and a 45 degree high in Tucson to begin February is going to be awesome! :tup:

Not to get off topic. Another part of the world not just most of the US is worrying about dangerous weather\. Down under a hurricane/cyclone is about to hit Syndey.
