Beause it only happens a few times each Winter, and we often don't get more than a dusting.

Yeah right. Every municipality around here is totally jacked up. Everyone says they have blown their snow budget. There are driving lanes in Harrisburg with massive snow piles in them. Traffice backs up. Took me an extra 10 minutes to get home...which doubled my commute time.


Another 2+ feet possible starting Monday.

its sad out here, in LI where I live taxes are thru the roof, and in NYC taxes are much lower but NYC has done a much better job of snow clean up the last 2 storms so go figure.

Roads are prety good out this way now so everything is easily passable. did find some black ice on an offramp this morning. if I wasnt awake before then I def was after LOL

My town isn't quite as bad as the pic OTB posted. Our roads are about a lane and a half wide.

Some roads in the city have honestly not been plowed at all.

Some of the roads are a bit narrow because of the plowing and there are slick spots because of the jackasses throwing the snow into the street.

Should be sunny and a lil warmer here the next few days so hopefully we see some significant melting.
