Hurry up and buy all the milk and gas you can get your hands on!
Be sure everyone in your home has clean feet in the unfortunate event we all become trapped in our homes from the upcoming snowpocolypse and have to eat our own feet to survive.
Pray that PSEG is truly the utility messiah and handles this storm with military precision.
And don't forget to tip your bartenders.

I love the way the supermarkets get package during these storms. These people act like they will be stranded for weeks! Even if I was, I probably have enough food in my house for the next 2 months. However, it may not be what I want to eat at that moment. Milk? Enough until next week. Eggs? 1/2 Doz in refridge.

at least we won't be seeing these types of threads before a hurricane anymore...

as for the snow, I can't wait. Being frigid without snow is pointless. 4 seasons - bring it. The only negative may be that schools are quite possibly closed on Friday and we JUST got through 12 days straight with the rugrats.

That's the most idiotic thing I've ever heard. So people who use those roads for work either have to deal with the traffic disaster on Sunrise/local roads, or call in? Get the GD plows out, and deal with the situation. Christ, we're only talking MAYBE 10" here.

This is terrible. We are trapped like dogs down here in Sarasota. Supposed to fly home Friday. To think we have to reschedule a flight and stay a couple more days is reprehensible.

Last February, he also suspended mass transit after 8 inches I think. What are people that go to work in the morning supposed to do?

Hmmm. Ok so I am the only one with l/2 a cup of milk in the fridge? I figured they said it is only going to last a day. It will be over by noon on Friday. I am going to go buy a gallon of milk though because I love it, and I need it storm or no storm.

My son is ecstatic for snow. He saw a "little" snow the day before we left for vacation, but he hasn't actually played in it yet. We got back this past week from vacation, and I ordered him a pair of boots. A couple of people said not to buy snow "stuff" because you never know if we will even get any. The boots are supposed to be here tomorrow with prime shipping. Actually, they were suppose to be here yesterday. I hope they get here ..and they fit.

I am wondering how accurate they are on predicting snow. Well, I guess I will know tomorrow night.
