Whiteface Mountain Welcomed Summer With Three Feet Of Snow

Adams — Tue, 28 May 2013 21:12:19 +0000

The unofficial start to Summer wasn't exactly that, was it? Essentially, in the Albany Area, it rained all weekend with the beauty of sun and warm temps setting in on Monday. Of course, that was the last day of our holiday weekend, so yeah- Last weekend was a bust. Let me just say, it could have been a heck of a lot worse.

BMW Truck Wrecks As Dudes Watch [VIDEO]

Adams — Tue, 19 Mar 2013 23:00:27 +0000

So, the snow may be slowing down out there, but the reports are coming in. Accidents here and accidents there. It’s bound to happen right? Everyone seems to have 4-wheel drive and of course, driving way to fast for conditions can only mean one thing: Crash, crack, boom! While you’re sitting back complaining about the [...]

Spring is on Wednesday, Snow Sounds About Right

Adams — Mon, 18 Mar 2013 16:41:42 +0000

I have a bone to pick with Punxsutawney Phil. 'An early Spring is coming' (which translates to six more weeks of Winter) was the prediction from our furry friend in Punxsutawney, PA.. By the way, that was six weeks ago, and no, no sign of Spring is near. In fact, expect another dose of Old Man Winter around these parts starting tonight.

Cops Called On Frat Bros For Snow Sculpture [AUDIO]

Dalton Castle — Tue, 12 Mar 2013 23:30:23 +0000

How I Assume The 911 Call Went: This doesn’t really seem like a police matter. Some frat bros were doing bro things and made a giant bro clown out of snow and you called the police? The West Lafayette police department in Indian received a call after someone did not approve of the giant dork sitting on [...]

Snow Headed To The Albany Area

Adams — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 16:41:37 +0000

Just when you thought Oldman Winter had packed up and decided to take shelter for the next few months, think again. Mother Nature has us in her cross hairs and she’s ready to pull the trigger. I’m not gonna get into weather models or time of arrival predictions. I’m not. But I will say this: [...]

Mass Snow Plow Driver Loves To Piss People Off [VIDEO]

Dalton Castle — Thu, 21 Feb 2013 18:09:48 +0000

Nobody loves their job and pissing people off more than this dude. I don’t know if it’s because he’s a jerk or if that’s just the Massachusetts way. Snow plows are essential for clearing the roads and we all need them. However, you can’t help but to hate the plow after you just spent [...]

Flying Snowball Prank [VIDEO]

Adams — Tue, 12 Feb 2013 23:55:00 +0000

Oh yes, that is correct- Ever want to run up to someone, out of no where, and blast them (in good fun, of course) with a snowball? I know I know- It would be awesome, especially with the few inches of snow still on the ground around these parts. One problem, you run the risk of taking a big ole knuckle sandwich to the kisser. No fun, that's for sure. But alas, a couple dudes from the dirty dirty have devised the best snowball prank ever!

Now I'm Free To See The World, In The Snow, At 70MPH [VIDEO]

Adams — Tue, 12 Feb 2013 02:00:59 +0000

Has a nice ring to it, doesn't it? Reminds me of my favorite commercial from Hoveround. You know, the one with the little old ladies riding up to the edge of the Grand Canyon, peering out over the Canyon all happy and what not. In the back of their minds their like 'ugh, I can't believe this is how I make extra cash'. But whatev- That commercial is great and so is a 70mph 4-wheel scooter, in the snow!

Winter Storm Nemo Slams The Albany Area, Not Really [VIDEO]

Adams — Mon, 11 Feb 2013 23:55:14 +0000

Remember Thursday of last week? Everyone was freaking out: ‘Nemo is coming, Nemo is coming- Expect at least a foot of snow- Quick, go buy 15 gallons of milk’. Yes friends, the stage was set for a multi-storm throw down right over our heads. Mwuahahaha! With schools, after work church dinners and even driving lesson [...]

Albany School Closings and Weather Information

Bryen — Fri, 08 Feb 2013 03:23:32 +0000

Have you heard we're getting a storm? We haven't had much winter in the past two years so any storm delivering any amount of snowfall gets people all excited. We're expecting a pretty big storm though and many schools decided to close ahead of the storm. Our list of closings is continually updated as is our real time weather.

Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow

Adams — Thu, 07 Feb 2013 18:23:44 +0000

Seriously though, you ready for some serious snow? I was just chatting with a buddy yesterday about the white stuff. Our general consensus? Why haven't we seen a snow storm that drops 2 inches an hour, like back in the old days? You know what I'm saying right? Like, the kind of snow plows can't keep up on? That's what I long for when it comes to winter and snow. Let's roll out the prediction.

Will Winter Storm Nemo Find His Way To The Albany Area?

Adams — Wed, 06 Feb 2013 19:02:07 +0000

Insert Finding Nemo jokes (here). All kidding aside, two snow storms could come-a- barreling on in Friday morning, which could net us up to a foot and a half of snow. That, of course, depends on who you’re getting your weather info from. Personally, I stick with Channel 10- I’m local all day. Here’s what [...]

Drunk Man Has Sex With Snowman and Gets Frostbite On His Wiener

Mike Adams — Fri, 25 Jan 2013 05:05:31 +0000

There are times when the eyes of an alcoholic reveal a darkness so vast that everything decrepit in the universe appears to makes sense, like a bloodshot lookingglass reflecting a message from God - or maybe not. Either way, occasionally a rare breed of sloppy degenerate rises up from the drunken pits of hell to prove to the rest of us that there is a long way to go before we ever hit rock bottom. You'll know them by their frostbitten penises.

What's The Best Part About Snow in Albany?

Dalton Castle — Thu, 17 Jan 2013 18:43:47 +0000

Yes I’m talking about the white fluffy stuff from the sky not the one hit wonder fake Jamaican dude with glasses. What’s so great about this cold stuff that make people drive slow an angry? I know there are a million things to say negative about winter and snow fall but let’s flip the switch [...]

Watch the World's Largest Snowball Fight

Kyle Dowling — Wed, 16 Jan 2013 18:03:44 +0000

Just last week, nearly 6,000 people gathered in Seattle, Washington, to set the world's record for the largest snowball fight ever put together. The event was held during the city's "Snow Day" and went well into the night, proving that being pelted in the face by freezing balls of ice was just about the best thing people could think to do on their Saturday.

Where Is The Best Place To Ski And Snowboard Near Albany?

Dalton Castle — Fri, 28 Dec 2012 18:30:40 +0000

Last year we had a winter without snow. Now that we have more snow then we can handle I got to know where the best place to go skiing or snowboarding near the Albany Area is. Moving to Albany last year had me pumped, because I knew I would be less than three [...]

Do You Believe in Global Warming? – Survey of the Day

Jeremy Taylor — Thu, 01 Mar 2012 15:39:58 +0000

Belief in global warming has hit a three-year high, which experts attribute to a warmer than usually winter in the US. A University of Michigan and Muhlenberg College poll taken in December asked 887 adults if they thought earth was warming. Sixty-two percent of respondents did, 26 percent did not, and the rest either weren’t sure or [...]
