SNOW'S HERE in NY STATE
Roads in Northern an Western Ny are closed except for emergency vehicles only and in some areas the plows have been taken off the road.
  In Western Ny the thruway is closed. High wind blowing so high visibility is zero in most places.

I knew there was a reason that when I left Rochester/Henrietta in 1960 that I never went back except to visit and funerals.

I've been on the road for the last 2 weeks got a day off finally no more driving for work for this week, somebody else can do it.
Was in Auburn last Thursday and got caught in the crap, Albany Sunday got lucky and made it back with only a dusting. Many other uneventful trips last week to Albany.

Unless I have to go to work it will wait , cleaning out the driveway when the wind is blowing like it is would be useless.
