Snow

Yeah I'm ~20 miles SE (Java Center) of the Buffalo and we only got 1/2 a foot, the kids went to school yesterday. I would have liked 5' in my back yard, but not on my drive way :^)

Wish we had some of that:

Darn windstorm blew a fair proportion of the carefully piled leaves around before the city could suck them up, but only about 1/2" here (maybe 1.5 hour drive north-west of Western NY epicenter).

No snow day for the kids. Glad you're not buried, George.

Buffalo is "blessed" by the lake (Chicago to a different extent... different lake!)

Yeah, getting cold here, too! 75F today...

Well the kids are off today. (~1/3 of their teacher's couldn't make it in yesterday.) I'm home (reading about wire bonding.) there's no snow where I work in North Buffalo, and clear here, but in between the roads are closed with a driving ban. Lake effect is weird that way. I guess it's the same at the eastern end of lake Ontario, (Watertown) Only worse (or better) in that Ontario doesn't freeze over, and keeps on giving all winter. I would have liked to have the 5' here. As long as you can guarantee that it will stay all winter and not melt in a week. (I have to plow it once, but I can play on it many times!) There is no quiet, like the woods with several fe et of new snow.

My aunt posted a slogan on her Facebook page, against a picture of a parking lot in a blizzard: "Buffalo: come for the culture, stay because you can't find your damn car!"

Who needs snow... these damn parking lots have become so huge with convoluted markings that I have resorted to tagging my parking location on my GPS before I enter a mall. ...Jim Thompson

Nah, it's because you're a geezer.

Is turning 3/4 C a "Geezer"? I can still out Analog most anyone here. ...Jim Thompson
