Mine, too! Lol good one.

I'm on my way to Jersey City by train. We are required to come in today and put work we need onto a flash drive for at home and then we can leave early.

This is so stupid because there is a good chance I will lose power and won't be able to work anyway. As a matter of fact, i'm hoping that the stove burners will throw sufficient heat to keep the cats and me alive for a couple of days. That's what I did in Sandy, but it was only November then.

The ride in this morning was not bad at all. Seems a lot of folks must have stayed home-it was about the same as when I'm working during the normal state/federal holidays (MLK Day, President's Day, etc...). Hopefully the lack of volume will make the ride home less grinding than usual.

10-12 inches of snow is a big deal in NJ.

Looks like the National Weather Service has knocked a few inches off the projected storm totals for Hudson/NYC/LI. Down from 20-30 inches in yesterday's warning to 18-24 inches in today's warning. Still a fair amount of snow.

1210 people per square mile + 10-12" of snow = chaos

I am worried. The trifecta combo of crazy amount of snow plus high winds plus extreme cold is so scary. If our house loses power, the cat and I have no warm place to go.

Seems like a good solution to an all too common problem.

I tried something different with my 8 HP Toro.

1. Bypassed the speed governor so it ran so fast it did not clog.

2. Sold Toro to neighbor and moved to NC. (better solution)

There is no snow accumulated on the ground as of yet. Just does not look like I am going to be sent home any time soon .
