    Damn...Will probably wake up with over a foot of new snow and single digit temps...NJ, NY and CT have already closed some major roads...I think the NY Thruway (87) is closed from Albany to the NYC area...Tomorrow is going to be brutal...

    Yep the governor is doing a pre emptive move he's closing the Long Island expressway all our parkways and the nys thruway tonight. Long Island is in a blizzard as I type. 12 inches or more. Got the blower gassed up and ready to rock n roll in the morning.

    I'm sure you are dug in with plenty supplies . . . hang tough. We are only having below freezing temps right now, but very cold for these parts. Today will not get out of the 30s . . .

    My area is up to 8" not bad except the wind is gusting over 40mph. Maybe another 2 " before it's over.
