Sadly none; it ended up going to the east of here. Sad because that meant that today's activities were not cancelled.

All the snow's gone away, and has been replaced with impenetrable banks of thick fog, with visibility down to around 25 yards...

Not a happy camper :x

Surely taking the subway is safe in such weather.

Supposed to get a "big snow storm" tonight.
(4 to 5 inches)

Heh.

Everyone here is flipping out and stock piling.
I'm just laughing at 'em!

About 7 inches fell here last night and it took me two and a half hours to drive 20 miles in blizzard conditions.
Had to walk the last bit of my journey as my car got stuck.

We did actually get the prescribed 4",
which is weird that the weatherman actually got something right.

Compared to other places I've lived,
4" isn't a big deal, but around here... well, they think it is.
Everyone freezes up & decides they don't know how to do anything.
(Also, weird to me.)

I find the snow invigorating!
I was outside scooping up the drive
within the first half hour of being awake this morning.
...better than coffee!
...better than speed!
The snow makes me feel young and alive again.

I just wish there'd been more of it.

None. Zilch. It's actually felt quite warm recently - about 10° (in new money) I reckon. :D

Fifth near miss of the season so far. Just to the east, plows have been called out three times already.
