Yep, the NWS actually condemned the move. TWC is a joke.

Wow! The Las Vegas news is making sound as if Manhattan is getting slammed as far as snow right now?

there have been too many bad NEMO jokes on my facebook feed today. I kind of like the "we didn't need to find Nemo, he found us" one though.

Checked the Boston forum and no discussion .... Not much here either. However, it sounds like Connecticut is getting nailed!

Stay warm and safe everybody!

HUGz! Jules

NYC buses and subway are running. But some buses are detouring due to icy roads. The 1 & A subway lines also have some problems but the rest of the system is okay according to NBC news.

Last night the LIE and the Sunrise highway were CLOSED. But some people are just TOO IMPORTANT to stay home so they hit the roads and got stiuck all over both highways and must now be rescued at taxpayer expense. How very very sad.

A tank should drive by and shoot everyone in the head who is sitting behind the wheel of these cars. The world would be a better place without these self "IMPORTANT" people.

they are already paying emergency services to be out there so it just gives them something to do.
