Much better. I think if that happens again, LIers will be breaking down LIPA & Nat Grid's doors to sleep there.

You can make a light bulb glow with a potato too can't you? Just think of all the "green energy" we would have available if Long Island still had all those potato farms.

Hmmm, maybe it's time to start growing potatoes again - right in our backyards

Winter Wonderland in the Huntington area!

Looks sooo beautiful and peaceful - but what a pain to shovel

I'm guessing 2-3 here. Coming down hard and piling quickly. Glad I have a guy to come plow me out. All I have to do is clean off the cars.

Just watching the news they are predicting 10 for Nassau quite a bit less than both 2010 storms. They said the big difference will be the wind.
