Glad I didn't go tuna fishing this weekend. 
Took one look outside...a foot or so on the ground, and went back to bed. 
I heard parts of NJ got socked with 20 INCHES so far!

Foot plus here - still looks like we won't have a big snow since that April Foools day snow a few years ago.
And the guys in Baltimore are getting burried. I lived down there, they CAN'T handle it - don't know what to do |

We're here peering out the windows wondering what the weather will bring. Probably end up canceling second and swing shifts.........
Hopefully by the time I leave all the will be home already. |

Was going to dry rods today but think I'll wait till it’s over. Kind of lousy when power goes out and you have to spin them by hand.

Don't underestimate this storm guys---here on eastern LI we've already got about 14" on the ground and it's still snowing like a mother.
I remember a weather forecast in February 1978 that called for 8-12 inches  |

Vacation week for me, that is until I'm ordered in which I'm sure will happen shorlty.
What a difference a year makes. Remember last year, global warming and wondering how the herring were going to make it upstream w/out water?

Just went to Stop&Shop, oh my god...
There were like 800 people fighting over two pieces of chicken. No steaks, no butter, almost out of eggs...
I went to finish the "Honey Do" list, all I had to get was two things from the deli.
I waited an hour...
I got the cold cuts though, not for me I might add...
We're closing both restaurants at 3 pm.
Good luck guys, I don't think the driving's that bad, though.
Later,
Rick |
