But I'm pleased to report that it's a winter wonderland out there and still falling quite heavily. Whew. :) :D
Same here. :lol:

From TWL:

"Going outside is like a war zone. Melting ice causing explosions and incredibly dangerous conditions in every direction. This is insanity. Still no power.

This will be remembered for a long time."

Damn...

Nice! I arranged WFH and boy am I glad. Snow had eased off a bit when I measured at 5 AM but it's picked right back up.

For some reason people are saying things about how they haven't seen plows in various parts of the cities and how no snow has been plowed yet. Very strange.
