I remember a similar storm a few years back where Bloomberg did that for teh city schools and there was barely any snow, he caught hell for it, as its a major disruption to peoples lives.

I remember that too. The big storm slipped off its predicted track and bypassed us for the most part.

The last big snow (blizzard Dec. 26-27) he did not officially declare a city-wide state of emergency (when he really should have).

This snow he declared one last night (and it didn't turn out to be bad enough to do so).

We got dumped on out in Holbrook. Trains on the Ronkonkoma line are running, but with delays.
