Heavy winter storm on the American East Coast
 

Parts of the Eastern Coast of the United States of America have been hit by a snowstorm last weekend, accompanied by coastal flooding from the Atlantic Ocean. Passenger flights and intercity trains have been cancelled, and thousands of houses have been out of electricity.

Welcome to the Russian winter!
I'd sent you samovar and ushankas, but I don't have any.

Mainer here. Wasn't that bad. MSM fearporn strikes again.

Got gypped again with only 3". Was a tough area to forecast and am right where two predicted amounts meet, so was hearing anything from 3" to 5" to 7" to 11"... and ended up with just the 3" for the 3rd time like the last two storms. Down state got a lot more and blizzard conditions.

Was hoping it would be a little more impressive, but hard to complain since the main roads were already clean and dry by this morning, so there's that.

My area got a huge amount of snow. That led to my coworker calling out and I don’t blame her for not wanting to drive in the snow. That left us understaffed which put a huge amount of stress on me. My superior (not boss but just superior) coworker has been yelling at me for accidentally messing up a spreadsheet (I was miscommunicated about it) and also over confusion of what job has to be done as there wasn’t enough people to do them all. This made me very unhappy with the snow.

We had the usual Texas winter panic, which happens any time we get more than a dusting of snow, because it ALWAYS turns to ice after a day or two, since the ground never really gets (ie: STAYS) cold enough for it to stick without thawing partially and then refreezing into some nasty slick mess. WalMart was cleaned out, as usually happens, people panic at the first hint of a snowstorm, and we always have everything shut down for at least a day if it's more than an inch or so. Lovely. I was happy though, since work was closed Thursday, and opened late and closed early Friday. Which meant I got to sleep in two days in a row even before my weekend off, lol!
