Locals Brace for Blizzard, Up to Two Feet of Snow Possible

The snow has started falling in Durham and Middlefield and when it's all over residents could be digging out from as much as two feet of it.

We asked locals how they were preparing for the storm on our Facebook page. Here's what they had to say:

• Christine Callahan Viski Buying gas for generator. Expecting to loose power

• Melissa Greenbacker Making sure all the calves have lots of bedding; getting the feed bunks ready; making sure the grain is delivered today; getting the generator ready to go; fueling up the tractors; talking with the milk truck driver in case he can't get here to pick up the milk on Saturday; making sure the barn is battened down.

• Laura Savalli-Borhman Durham style: gas, propane and water.

• Sandra Lacroix Ferrara Going to sam's club for water, milk, gas and WINE!!!!

• Lisa Davenport Buyin the milk buying the cheese
  Filling the tub As deep as My knees
  Stacking the wood as high as I could
  Gassing up the car although I won't go far
  Planning a puzzle and maybe some snuggle
  But most of all
  Looking forward to some family time.... The perfect way to end my silly rhyme

• Fran Periú Ginsberg Going to the feed store to double up on grain and bedding. Also, getting diesel for the generator to run the well.

• David A Davis looking at the bright side... burglaries will be down as most crime

• Beatrice Reading Don't forget books & DVDs from the Durham Public Library! We've already had quite a few people in to browse our DVD collection.

• Deb Golschneider Food, milk, dog food, bird seed and suet, gas for cars and generator, charge cell phones and kindle...check. Guess we're good to go, or should I say stay home, and wait to see what Mother Nature brings us.

• Liz Donohue Called a new guy to plow, got gas and wine, picked up pizza.

• Country Flower Farms Fueling up all trucks and tractors with plows. Have moved everything we can that may blow and cause damage inside. Making sure we have no openings on any of our roofs. Starting up heat in all greenhouses to minimize snow build-up on our roofs. Already starting to clear paths to get trucks in if we need more oil to keep up with melting snow off the roofs.
