Hi Bill. Just a dusting here west of Philly today, but the heavy stuff hits later tonight and all day tomorrow. You should be safe from that one. I don't think it's going that far inland.

Howdy Steve. Yeah, we're on the back edge of it, so we're lucky on this one. At some point I should go clean the driveway up before the mail carrier comes through...

Hi Neil. I guess you're far enough west not to get killed by this one. My son lives in NYC. That place is gonna be shut DOWN!

Bill, gotta take care of the mail carriers. I always make sure to make a clear path to our mail box. My wife comes from a postal carrier family (both her mom and step dad).

I try to keep things in order for her. I'm on a hillside, so if it's slick it's not fun for anyone.

They just needed more milk, bread, TP and egg sales, that's all.

I hate winter as much as the next guy with any sense, but in this region out here everyone has gone soft. We used to get 4-6" of snow and it was nothing - now they panic in the streets over it. Schools close for a couple days, etc.

Steve, I am just east of Rochester so pretty much every Nor'easter is just far enough to the east to affect me. If the track of the storm runs right up from Philly to Albany, then I have a greater chance of seeing snow and most of it is not from the storm but lake effect that is created from the wrap around winds of the storm.

Afternoon men. As you boys contemplate getting buried, I'm contemplating taking off a half day Wednesday, and going home to work on the 67, being its going to be 60.....

Howdy Pat.

My garage is about 60, so I'm taking advantage as often as I can...despite the weather outside.

When it's going to be this warm, I want to take advantage of it! I don't want to wait until April to go back to work!

I can't say I blame you, Pat. Gotta make it count when you can.
