This is the actual photo of what the groundhog saw

Re: North Eastern "Blizzard"
 

Were having the type of snow that we hate but the mentors love. Constant snowfall but only precipitation on side streets and grass. My backyard has 6 inches, my driveway has 0 (Mainly because I plowed it, but it would still only have 1-2 inches of snow on it).

Re: North Eastern "Blizzard"
 

well, for the first time ever because of the snow , they forced the mechanical sub team out of the warehouse on time, so were going to have to kick it up a notch this year, if it snows next week, were going to end up in somebodies basement finishing it up.

Re: North Eastern "Blizzard"
 

The snow is falling and the roads are pretty icey. But that has never stopped team 888. We've been known to break into the school to get some work done. Of course, there's always time for snowball warfare.

Re: North Eastern "Blizzard"
 

I'm just happy its not next week right before ship. We'd be stuck in school with robot work that HAS to be completed.

Re: North Eastern "Blizzard"
 

Well, since we can't meet on Sunday anyway, its no great loss. Our team is slightly ahead of schedule, so as long as the district doesn't pospone on Monday, we're good.

Re: North Eastern "Blizzard"
 

Well, lucky for us, we got our robot pretty much built and ready to go. We need to make a few minor additions and tweaks here and there, but it is in fully fuctioning condition right now. The snow is not really going to affect much, and even if it did, it would only delay school on monday, if that. No time lost at all...

If we need to, we'll have our progarmming guys walk a mile through the snow to get our code fixed up...

Re: North Eastern "Blizzard"
 

Team 237 (Watertown) has 11 " so far.......

Re: North Eastern "Blizzard"
 

Team 41 (Warren, NJ) is 13-14" and counting...

Re: North Eastern "Blizzard"
 

It is snowing we got a foot and may have foot more coming. :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Re: North Eastern "Blizzard"
 

as of now, in north brunswick, we have 16.5 inches, and its still coming!

Re: North Eastern "Blizzard"
 

Everybody was forced out of the school at 1:00 pm yesterday - we might not meet today, too. Uh-oh.

Re: North Eastern "Blizzard"
 

13" and counting! We are supposed to get 14"+ by the time it is all done. The school told us we can't go in and work today. Hopefully we will be allowed in on Monday.

Re: North Eastern "Blizzard"
 

Yep, there's a lot of snow on the ground!

This happens every year, so we kind of expect it sooner or later. Last year it was the last two days of build season...that was kind of bad...now we're looking at another snowstorm for friday/saturday, so I dont know how that will affect our scrimmage...

Oh well, I see some all nighters in our future... :ahh:
