BV, you still going?

However please try to make it on time as the snow will be kicking in 6ish.

I'll have to see how it goes. Winter boots don't go on until the 28th, and I haven't tried the summers in the snow.

AchtungF80 · 12-18-2009, 10:14 AM

Just remember guys...it takes a while for snow to stick, right temperature and conditions...if its 34 deg or higher, its flurry!

def not snowing
MD/DC VA area is getting dumped on supposedly ... 8-12 inches which means 4 inches

according to National weather service it will be 1-2 in Nj/NYC by sunday am starting over night saturday
and Accuweather enforces that forecast with even less snow for our area.

The weather men and media and TWC all make $ sensationalizing the storms... and then nothing happens... the doppler shows barely any precip and the movement for the actually real snow that will stick is all south NJ

so be there or be at home staring at a clear day outside wondering how amazing a sandwhich you could of had.

The NWS says 5-10" is "possible" with greatest chance of accumulation at the coasts and the NYC metro area. Definitely gotta leave early if nothing else, the last thing anyone would want to do is drive through JC with snow on the ground.

Actually it may be a good test for me, my General Exclaim UHP tires have an M+S on the sidewall (when TireRack rates them as summer). Gotta test who is right

You're coming across the Throggs Neck right? Meet me somewhere in Throggs Neck and we'll drive to Edison all convoy like.

I have all my camera stuff ready to go, this may be the perfect time to document the onset of vehicle related hypothermia.

I wasnt planning on it. I take the Triboro to the Henry Hudson, then to the GW.

I dont know the troggs neck area. But if you drop me an address ill put it into my GPS

I also need to warn you. I will be dropping into a gas station once we get into Jersey. I cant resist 40 cent savings.

sometimes i fill up half a gallon in nj just for kicks when i completely full .. the gas attendant is like wtf.

BrokenVert · 12-18-2009, 04:05 PM

Ohh wow. This place is a lot further south than I thought it was. Maybe you should just meet me on the south shore? Cruise the belt and pray its not too bad?

Its just off of the Outer Crossing

///M1 · 12-18-2009, 04:06 PM

Keep in mind there is a Sunoco right before the GW bridge (NJ side of course) selling 100 Octane race fuel! Cash only, and it is pricey (~$8/gallon). You'll feel the extra power, totally worth it!

Ill stick with the Shell on RT 4 thats $2.59 a gallon. haha, I dont have a tune, that fuel would be useless.

I also have a station 2 towns over from me that sells 100 for $9 and 110 for $11...and he takes a credit card
