impending blizzard to hit chicago will be the biggest in 45 years! Hi ECF members

[WomanOfHeart]

We didn't get a lot of snow, but it did get cold enough to freeze one of our toilets! Space heaters are such handy devices...

I vaped the last of my Chocolate Toffee Cappuccino (which I did manage to spell correctly!) I'll have to make more tonight after work.

Love your screenname, ChicagoVPR! It just rolls off the tongue. Welcome to ECF! Try to stay warm and vape your head off!

To everyone in the path of this storm, good luck and stay safe.

BTW, re: buying bottled water before the storm. This is predicted to be a nasty ice storm with high winds. For people living out in the country and relying on well water, if you lose electricity, you are the last to get it restored and you lose your water supply. It could take 3 weeks to get power back on, so even having a generator doesn't really cut it.

Good lord, they just came on with a warning to not travel into central/northern Indiana or Chicago as "catastrophic" icing is occuring now.

 

[Aaeli]

I'm in Kansas. It is STILL snowing. My poor dog has snow outside to her neck! It's also unbelievably cold out there! Brrr!

 

[OldDragon]

snow is hiting here right now, maybe upto 2 1/feet in large drifts - and make sure that your batteries are all charged..

I left my car at work in the parking lot here, and hitched a ride home with a friend who has a big truck with 4 wheel drive. Even she had trouble staying on the road. I would have just stayed home, but in the medical field, that's not an option. Very glad to be home right now!

 

[Pissy]

All this snow is caused by Global warming.

LOL! That's right, and I suppose that vaping is thinning out the ozone layer, shall we get Al Gore's opinion?

But seriously guys, those of you in the path of this storm, stay safe, stay warm and vape away!

15-24 inches expected here, depending how close to the lake you are..........high surf warnings, 15-18 ft with the occasional 25ft........Lake Shore Drive will be flooded/iced over......wind is howling.

 

[Stosh]

I've noticed that when a big storm approaches everyone runs out for bread, milk and eggs.

So the question is what is it about snow that makes people crave French toast?

 

[chicagoVPR]

I would like to take you up on that off VMS.
I sometimes use my iPad with my Tekk mod to plug in when necessary.
I'll take that sled ride too!
C.B.

C.B., It is craaaaazy out there! Stuck my head out the door and thought, people gotta be insane to be out in this! They shut down lake shore drive, people stranded in their cars....gonna be a nightmare for a lot of people.
I know the east coast has been hammered this season and chicago had it pretty easy so far

 

[chicagoVPR]

Yes, it is Krav.

You train?

VMS

It was a guess. You said your training was intense and that was the first thing I thought of. Use your powers only for good my man.

 

[chicagoVPR]

Are you serious? What time is it expected? I have family traveling there so I am concerned, he was stuck on an icy freeway in Atlanta for 24 hours a couple weeks ago! lol!

Shoveling snow, I've been doing that a lot this year, only twice since I have started vaping and the snow was still heavy. Your blizzard snow is sure to be a lot heavier, just keep shoveling every couple hours. I don't think those snow blowers do as good of a job, my neighbor has one and he always have to go over with a shovel when he finishes. I think I should be expecting your second hand blizzard to be coming my way, usually heads west.

Oh and congrats on the vaping! You are going to be in for some changes but all for the best of course!

thanks vapi, I quit at a great time. Tried an analog today just to see how I'd react. I took 3 drags and was disgusted and put it out. Vaping is so much better!

 

[chicagoVPR]

Brrr!...sounds to cold to me. Just pack everyone up and come down here. It's been all sun, beer, flip flops and t shirts around these parts.

Grrr @ you Floridians and your nice sunny all year climate. Damn, damn, damn! : )

 

[cherewine]

Your right it was 79. I have photos somewhere I am digging out my 77 mustang 2. Yeah older age sometimes distorts the dates..Heck you remember! I was just a kid back in 67 but remember that one as well.

lol...I too remember the storm of 79...AND also have photos stashed...somewhere! Don't remember the 67 one, was too young I guess *hee,hee* So glad I moved to the Pacific Northwest right about now

 

[chicagoVPR]

Bring that snow on!! I am stocked up on food , movies and all vaping gear. My orders for extra juice came in yesterday along with more atties. I am ready for a snow day or week.

I have all that too except no movies! So I'm thinking of walking to a redbox, it would be a challenge. Since I'll never get to climb mount everest or trek through alaska, maybe this will satisfy my man vs nature craving.

*looks out the window

Oh hell no!

[kabonk]

I hate winter

 

[chicagoVPR]

I'm down here by Dallas and have about an inch and a half of snow and 18 degrees.not gonna do anything but eat,vape and hope the power doesn't go out like last year(3 days!).And yes I'm hoping its fear mongering and things aren't going to be as bad as some are predicting if only for those further north than me.Stay safe friends.

1 1/2 inches of snow sounds so nice right now. We are gonna be measuring by feet!

 

[chicagoVPR]

Welcome to the forum!! Us here in Toledo Ohio are expecting a blizzard too I hope the electricity holds up during the storm I hate to think that I couldn't charge my PV.

Thanks fallon. I charged my ego for the first time in 3-4 days. Maybe I'm just not a heavy vaper. I'm using 24 mg and I don't need much of it b4 I'm getting the sensation of nic OD. I'm gonna buy some lower mg stuff.

Good luck in your neck of the woods
