    No power and no heat sucks. I have moved up to hard liquor. At least I still have hot water so I can shave and shower.

    Thanks to Sandy, we had a spectacular view of a rare Lunar Rainbow.

    We had this yesterday in Bowling Green, KY. Haven't seen one in years.

    It got cut off a few seconds too early. He ended up saying something along the lines of: "... If you think I give a damn about politics right now, then you don't know me."

    It has snowed 30+ inches in West Virgina and it's still snowing in some places.

    Superstorm Sandy, the hurricane-turned-post-tropical-cyclone, blew through the Caribbean last week, killing at least 69 people, most of them in Haiti and Cuba. Sandy then churned up the U.S. East Coast, making landfall last night (Oct. 29) in New Jersey and bringing massive floods to Atlantic City, Manhattan, and other coastal areas.

    And now Sandy is a snowstorm.

    Thanks to a collision with cold air flowing from the Arctic, the post-tropical storm (so called because it has moved out of tropical latitudes), has so far dumped 26 inches of snow on Redhouse, Md., 24 inches in Alpine Lake, W. Va., and 18 inches in Newfound Gap, Tenn., according to The Weather Channel's Mike Bettes.

    The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued blizzard warnings for high-elevation areas of the central Appalachians, and a swath of lower elevation areas from western Maryland southwest into eastern Tennessee and western North Carolina are under winter storm warnings and advisories. Sandy's remnants could drop up to 3 feet of snow in parts of West Virginia and up to 2 feet in southwestern Virginia and eastern Kentucky before moving into Canada on Wednesday, according to the NWS.
    http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-205_162-...e-a-snowstorm/

    From 1 to 2 feet of snow has already blanketed the highest elevations in these areas, and more snow will continue to fall in the region through the middle of the week. Sandy will slowly move to the north then the northeast over the rest of the week. However, rounds of snow will continue to pile up in the mountains. As colder air continues to reach in, snow levels will lower creating slippery spots at intermediate elevations. The wet snow is weighing down trees and power lines, while gust winds in some areas are bringing these lines down.

    I literally get off at Whitehall for work, that video was fucking crazy lol. Office is still closed today(surprise).

    With all that water in the tunnels that is now being confirmed(5mi long tunnel to NJ filled with water, THE FUCK), just imagine how much flooding was prevented topside cause of it.

    Pittsburgh now getting flood advisories on local streams, creeks, and the Ohio river(that is bad.) We're getting the wintry mix that we were supposed to get yesterday. With the wind it's below freezing so we might see the rain start icing over. All in all Pittsburgh has really only had one day of moderately high wind and a shit ton of rain. Unfortunately a lot of the local creeks are now to the point where we're going to start flooding though it will be extremely mild when compared to what's going on elsewhere.

    I really hope that just once Obama turned to him and said "so suddenly you're a fan of federal spending?"

    Guy whose response to Katrina was notoriously late and insufficient thinks Obama should have waited longer and done less against this storm. I guess learning isn't his strong suit.

    Well as we've seen in the past year, those can be extremely deadly too. How many people died when that one creek valley filled up in 10 ft of water in 5 minutes? Wasn't it close to a dozen? I remember whole SUV full of mom+kids were among the drowned.

    That was a few blocks from where I work. Our entire office was flooded with raw sewage. It was fucking disgusting.
