Ok, I'm from Michigan and I can only think of one time in my entire lifetime that we got as much snow in as short a time as you just did in the mid-Atlantic, so those who are saying that you are wimps are really just crazy. When we got the 24-30 inches on New Year's Day, 1999, it was a full two weeks before mail service was restored in some parts of the city of Detroit.

That said, we're expecting 6-10" from Tuesday evening to Wednesday morning and the kids are COUNTING on a snow day. Honestly, I am too. I told the boss today that if we get that much, I will not be in, so it is now, technically a "scheduled" day off.

I'm ready for a snow day. I need a break. Besides, I have my teenage boy here, ready to make some money. He made money on the duck thing already this week. I'm paying him to take the trash to the curb tomorrow because there is a TON of it and now he's going to make money on snow removal for me too. He'll be rich (and I'll be poor!)

From your fingers to my ex-husband's eyes. If he's smart, he'll capitalize on this and make some money.

Sigh-looks like the "Son of Snowtorious B.I.G." will be upon us tonight and tomorrow. Although, some forecasts are now decreasing the amount of snow the greater DC area is supposed to get, instead of 12-18" now they are talking about "only" getting 10-15. Yippee.

You should enjoy it while it lasts, because of global warming this may be the last snowfall we see in our lifetime.

We're supposed to get 10-14 inches around here. Hopefully the plow guy comes to do my driveway at some point tomorrow.

Ok...just to show you my neighbors have nothing else to do, one them is out with a petition because she is upset about the small arsed patch of ice in front of her house....so she is trying to say that the snow removal was inadequate!!!

Maybe we can discount the 10ft mound of snow in front of my house and the Board president's house that was placed here because there was no place else for it to go.
