These storms have become political pawns the past few years that allow the Mayor and Gov. to flex their muscle and show how well they are taking care of their constituents. Storms and pols have a lot in common A lot of hype and nothing to show for it in the end.

Not hard ice, like frozen slushy. Just enough to support the dog's weight for a second before dropping her down through the light stuff to the ground, lol.

Maybe I exaggerated. But definitely got more than 3 - 4 inches. I'd say at least 6. Or maybe the wind just blew all the snow onto my part of the sidewalk.

Since no one has posted it, above ground is scheduled to resume at 6pm. I've ranged a bit farther from home with a late lunch at this point, everything is open and buses are chained up and seem to be functioning normally. Around here, at least.

Quote:
- LIRR service continues to operate on a normal schedule with scattered delays
- Staten Island Railway service has resumed as of 3:15PM this afternoon, 3/14
- MTA subway above-ground service will resume at 6PM tonight, 3/14
- Metro-North will resume limited hourly service starting at 6PM tonight until 11PM on the Hudson, Harlem, and New Haven lines. There will be no branch service. Full Metro-North service will resume tomorrow morning, 3/15, per the regular weekday schedule.
- MTA bus service will begin running normally at 5AM tomorrow morning, 3/15
- Express MTA subway service will begin operating normally at 7AM or earlier tomorrow morning, 3/15
- Access-a-Ride paratransit service has begun taking reservations for tomorrow’s commute
FWIW the wife experienced intermittent express on the 4, this morning and this afternoon.

Order something for me, I'll pay you back... Eventually

Ugh, not looking forward to walking through slush, ice, and unshoveled sidewalks tomorrow.

No worries, from the sounds of it, it will all be all straight up ice tomorrow anyway. Cheers The familiar nasty assed deep slush water that I had to carry the kid unit through intersections through this afternoon, though.
