OK, OK. I was only going by the time on the Parkway, but I do understand your pain.

For a year I was driving twice a week from Exit 109 to Borough Park. Oh, the pain.

A jet stream that is currently making its way through the Midwest will lose pressure as it heads towards the east coast, turning the storm into a “bomb cyclone,” also known as an explosive cyclogenesis or a bombogenesis. The nor’easter will begin Thursday night and continue into Friday.

Here's what you can expect in Queens from the oncoming nor'easter that's making its way up the east coast - QNS.com

After Hurricane Sandy, I am desensitized to any type of bad weather.

The second northeaster tonight won't be helpful to those that still don't have power.

Exactly what I was thinking. Hope this turns into a big nothin-burger.

Yes! I have faith. The overnight temps (the last time I checked) are still too warm for all that.

Manhattan won't suffer as much as the burbs. Like 3rd world countries, ConEd still has wooden telegraph type poles conducting electricity in the burbs as if it were the 1890s. Any heaver wet snow, wind blowing, tree boughs falling, etc etc etc leads to outages all the time.
