This was like heaven for us kids when we were young, we'd stay up at night planning what we were going to do when the schools would close. I get excited just watching Jim frolicking around in the drifts.
The blizzard of 78 is one for the record books! Indiana, the whole state was under a state of emergency, and my area, Kokomo, nothing moved for a couple weeks. My school missed 16 days straight. We remember it like it happened last year.
This man is a LEGENDARY meteorologist! I grew up watching him as a kid on The Weather Channel, and his passion is why I've been obsessed with weather for as long as I can remember.
Jim's still out there. Great guy! Met him in Orchard Park during the storm that fizzled. He didn't show up for the 7 feet that postponed and relocated a NFL game. Haha
thank you! shovelling was actually not bad! the snow was very light. it kept coming and we had to shovel the stairs 5 times, but it was light and fluffy! i guess we're lucky, I feel for people in worse situations. 💕
I think it was like 3 or 4 years ago Boston had a blizzard that Jim covered, and he went nuts everytime they got lightning thunder snow...Classic Cantore
I live in Georgia. I remember the blizzard of 1993 that came through the SE. Overnight we had 2 feet of snow. Not much compared to up north but a lot for the south.
I so wish the South could see that kind of snow fall again. My oldest will be 17 soon and they have never seen more than 6 inches. I have prayed the kids would see a blizzard before they moved out. Doesn't look like it will happen.
This looks like winter for me as a kid only in Md…in the late 50s, 60s & 70s. We had snow and huge drifts all winter so this is a rarity snowstorm for the eastern coastal line. Yes, the thrill of a school snow day the next day excited all of us kids. Still does only winters have been milder over last years…kids love it.
Why wouldnt we? Snow is fun, especially when you come from Puerto Rico, has no snow, no cold, just heat. When you come to MA to visit and if is it snowing, its great.
Funny, we were just talking about Jim Cantore today. We had never seen him cover any storms other than hurricanes. Now we know he does blizzards too. He's no stranger to the strong storm winds being experienced in Boston. Our daughter called the blizzard that has hit the New England area a "frozen hurricane" with such high winds being recorded in some areas. Hope everyone is staying safe in this ferocious storm.
I am in Central Florida and it's below freezing, we have heaters on. We are miserable😔!!! I don't know how you people survived there, i heard lots of people doesn't have power. There's a reason why i live in FL not to freeze. I've lived in Delaware for a year 25 years ago and i cannot handle it. Blessed all of you out there🙏.
It’s really not as bad up here as some of you from the South think. I’d rather be somewhere warmer, but we’re very prepared for the cold… just like how y’all are for the heat. One good thing we like about winter, is that it’s like a ‘reset’ button. All the crazy things going on in the Summer get put on hold and staying inside makes you focus more on priorities. I’ve never been to Florida in the Summer, I wanna go to see if I can handle the humidity & bugs 🤣
Okay, thanks for that great question about "noteworthy storms". As a fellow storm-chaser, and there are a significant number of us, the survivor gets to tell the story.
I was involved with the blizzard of 78 in Columbus, OH. Don't remember much as I was 4 going on 5 that year. Parents & I moved to Southern California in July 1979. Parents were done with snow.
I was in Columbus then as well and remember it. I was 6yo. My dad carefully walked me next door for a play date (houses weren’t that far apart). We now live in Central New York and actually love the snow.
How about those 40' high snow banks? Are you all visualizing that? We're talking 4-story tall buildings here. They transcribed it to 14', but I swear he said 40.
Jim cantore is awesome hey Jim did you catch any thunder and lightning with the snow I love when he gets excited when he sees thunder with the snow LOL
Hey Jim! 1978 Blizzard. The snow was over my girlfriend's head. You not see one car on a lot of the streets in Boston. They where covered 100% in snow!
SE Michigan/Toledo is next! Winter sucks bring on March. Now he's right to VISIT, but those southern people wouldn't live up here in this for three + months!!
Think it was Don Kent who forecasted the Blizzard of 78...he knew something big was coming, but couldn't quite pin-point it. Meteorology wasn't as technically sophisticated as today, and predicting large storms was pretty dicey then.

@@m42037 if you hate the snow, if you love it then there should be now problem.
@@_shotsbyjay I want what your smoking! 🚬🥴
You know when Jim Cantore shows up in your neighborhood you are going down in the record books.
Jim loves his job.
Jim is also sneaky, the way he stands in the snow , with his legs spread, to make it look deeper😂

Cantore is America's top weatherman.... and this storm is legendary
Lol
Ollie Williams America's legendary weatherman.
He''s been in them all from blizzards to hurricanes, floods and tornadoes. He has a lot of guts and bravery. Love their Storm Stories series.
Its not a hurricane until I have seen Jim Cantore out in the wind trying to keep from blowing away.
Oh he is legendary alright. For being Cheesy lying weatherman!
Jim's still out there. Great guy! Met him in Orchard Park during the storm that fizzled. He didn't show up for the 7 feet that postponed and relocated a NFL game. Haha
Cantore is awesome. When he is on The Dan Patrick Show he is so funny he has them all in tears from laughing so hard.
Cantore rocks
Lol
OMG this is crazy stay safe and warm everyone. Prayers for down here in southwestern Ontario Canada🇨🇦🇨🇦 God bless you all🙏🙏🙏
Hey Mitsy....love coming at ya from downtown Toronto. Keep warm and God bless!

Plow drivers don't get the appreciation they deserve until a big snow comes!
The True Weather Warriors, BOSTON👍
I was surprised that it missed us here in Chicago! Maybe next time around we'll get our blizzard!!!!!
Jim Cantore is a living legend!!!
I live in Georgia. I remember the blizzard of 1993 that came through the SE. Overnight we had 2 feet of snow. Not much compared to up north but a lot for the south.
Yea, if you have to think back to 93 to recall a blizzard.

@@lifeislife489 Move to the Northwest or Northeast then. We don't want that down south.

Winter is a nice place . . . TO VISIT!!!
ANY "THUNDERSNOW" TO GET HIM EXCITED?? I TEND TO GO "CANTORE CRAZY" SOMETIMES MYSELF DURING INTENSE WEATHER!! LOVE IT!!
Cantore is cool. Used to run into him occasionally going in or out of the ATL.
It's a great gig if you can get it...
I live in Florida. Use to live in Grand Forks ND. We have freezing temps at night but nothing close to you folks up north. Thank you Jesus! ❄😁
You should move back
@@boblatkey7160 Yes he sure is praise the LORD
Oh puhleeze, what about '93? Now that system was legendary.

Run of the mill snowstorm. Media needs to hype it up. More viewers= more 💵
Jim has great energy
Nobody's talking about the northeast corner of CT but we've been in the thick of it since the start. I've got clear ground to four foot drifts!
so basically massachuestts
it was crazy on Cape Ann today...HUGE winds off the water...we couldn't see the ocean out the living room windows..white out,
Great stuff! Thanks for posting!
I was in Boston 1978. This ain’t nothing like ‘78. It can still deteriorate though.
Jim Cantore loves his job!!!! :) Respect!!
So lovely ❤️
If you see Jim Cantore, run!!
Wherever he goes, blizzards, tornadoes, or hurricanes follow!
And if you see the Dominator tornado intercept vehicle go by, prepare to take cover!
In Canada we call that Spring Time...
Ikr 😂
I went through the Blizzard of 78.
Okay, thanks for that great question about "noteworthy storms". As a fellow storm-chaser, and there are a significant number of us, the survivor gets to tell the story.

Can you do a weather report from my house just 15 miles south of Boston!!?? That would be EPIC!!
A miracle if they did a weather report in Worthington 🤣
If I were closer...the only down side are the power outages. Snowpocalypse in Texas last Feb would have been a blast except for the power outages.
It was ice that did the damage.
Looks like good chowdah weather!
I’d love to pick your brain Jim on a weather radar anomaly that I have noticed for months south of Florida.
Where exactly are you referrig?
Good job Jim . He is the best. U can tell
Legendary meteorologist covering a legendary storm. Jim Cantore should be collecting hazard pay! ✌️😸
Phoenix Lyon
using roommate's phone
Best coming. What a pleasure!
Ryan Hall ya’ll is the best in weather
When I was live in nj. I remember there was snow so hard until to get 7 fee to snow.
Actually was just like this last year,,,, meteorologist tend to tell fish stories
The one and only famous Meteorologist from TWC Jim Cantore on WBZ
How about those 40' high snow banks? Are you all visualizing that? We're talking 4-story tall buildings here. They transcribed it to 14', but I swear he said 40.
What a sweet childhood memory. Here's to baby meteorologists!
Jim cantore is awesome hey Jim did you catch any thunder and lightning with the snow I love when he gets excited when he sees thunder with the snow LOL
Eric and Jim are the best! ❤️
How are the homeless in all the snow there was shortage of housing why is the media ignoring them?
Hey Jim! 1978 Blizzard. The snow was over my girlfriend's head. You not see one car on a lot of the streets in Boston. They where covered 100% in snow!
Your girlfriend was short
They *were covered….
It reminds me of the Dennis Quaid film "Day after Tommorrow."
Yea...I think the 500 foot tidal wave smashing through the city was very reminiscent.
Go check out Ryan Hall Yall
Call Albert gore this one is for the record books, could it be global cooling?
yup,yup '78 made snow storm lovers of all my siblings and me.
I used to live there I remember those crazy snowstorms
Cantore and Harvey Leonard are my favorites
The Cape's snow is very wet and heavy, not light like Boston.
Roll around in the snow Jim. We've never seen snow before.
lol
💕jim cantorre💕
Rhode Island’s own Jim Cantore
SE Michigan/Toledo is next! Winter sucks bring on March. Now he's right to VISIT, but those southern people wouldn't live up here in this for three + months!!
I hope everyone have enough food and supplies because this situation looks pretty bad.
Think it was Don Kent who forecasted the Blizzard of 78...he knew something big was coming, but couldn't quite pin-point it.

Jim Cantore! I'll click on any remote the 'grand master of weather remotes' does.
There's no electricity; the light pole should be on since it is so dark
I want to be a weather man
Ok
You want to be a weather man or a Better man?
Lol
Holy Cow he is still working lol
Why do meteorologists have to go outside in every type of storm, sometimes life threatening storms to show us what’s happening?
Views
Justifies their salary.
They live for that shit
I feel like that'd be fun lol
I guess so we dont have to?
I like Jim's VR headset 😁
Thunder Snow!!
Well. Used to live there. You can have it. Im in Florida. A little chilly tonight but tomorrow in the 70s. Enjoy the mess
I'm in Florida and it's really cold down here too. 🥶
What was the date of this storm? Trying to remember what Maryland got.
That was me, Connie, on my husband's phone. He's nicer than me 🤣
Be nice if the weather channel recognized the Mississippi River Valley section of the country. Just Texas northeast and Detroit is all they talk about
No '78
NWS is currently posting (for Boston): Heavy snow, FREEZING FOG. Whaaat? How does that even work?
Shoveled all that snow around him to make it look worse.
Any New Brunswick update?
Looks like a Colorado Rocky Mountain 🏔 Blizzard 🌨
Any bars open downtown Jim?
Ankle deep, record breaking 70 plus inches of snow.
I'll never forget Jim's thundersnow incident. 😆❄🌨🌩⚡
Yes, that was so epic!

I would wager that tornados and hurricanes breed more meteorologist. It was thunderstorms for me.
"And now to Ollie Williams for your blackuweather forecast. Ollie"
"SNOW!"

He should have been down here on the southcoast. We are at about two feet of snow.

Are we to dumb down ?
There is not much of the blizzard of this year compare to the blizzard from 2013.
