Must be a slow newsday in these parts. All the paranoia over the winter wallop (even though its not winter yet) or the noreaster of 09 is prety entertaining.
The weather guys have no idea whats going ot happen, I am hearing reports of anywhere from a dusting to 18 inches in my area, if thats all it takes to report weather sign me up I can do that ![]() Whats also great is how everyone flocks to the stores to buy all th emilk and bread like we will be snowed in for days. We live in a suburban community thats relatively flat and has a good sanitation system so the roads are plowed in a day or so. What is a concern, to me anyway since I will be driving to and from work in this i sall the asshole christmas shoppers that will be out and how its bad that its such a busy shopping day and the storm will interfere in that. Miffy will still be ou tin her minivan because she needs to get the latest psp or whatever for her fucking kids. |

We will see how the guys are in seaford, I am on one of the peninsulas thats south of merrick rd so it may be a crapshoot. The sanitation guys here suck so I am not too optimistic on them with snow removal here. tom |

We may be getting some snow next week. Two women at work are freaking out, because if they don't show up to work Wed. they won't get paid for the holidays.
![]() I find it all amusing, having grown up in MI. Unless the roads are closed, I'm on them. And you better get the hell out of the way. ![]()

As someone who worked in news...I can tell you slow newsday or busy newsday...the second the wx man mentions snow the world comes to an end and the WINTER BLAST grx come out. It's a joke. But it's much funnier on the other side.

Damn that global warming!!
You guys should live out in the sticks like me. This kind of a blizzard brings more people out on the roads than Black Friday, some to have fun sliding their jeep, other wanting to watch said crazies, and still others out to sack the dollar store before they run out of milk and bread. And everyone here has access to a 4x4!
