Yeah, most of it is the DC area that they freak out. They shut that city down for two days, we were actually safe for the first time in years when that happened.....LOL

Bunch of softies, they are.
Just looking on the 10 day guess-cast, and the next snow we might get is next Wednesday. I'm good with that.
