Here in Rochester it's :wallbash: You! with a chance of :lol: You! tonight and a deep blanketing of ;) You! tomorrow.

 

60 degrees and sunny in El Paso. Trying to get to Ft Myers but delayed 4 hours 'cause the incoming flight is stuck in Chicago :wallbash:

 

Rubbing fingers together and playing the worlds tiniest violin just for you.

This is easily the worst event in terms of snow since I moved out here in 2006 - we've had at least one every year. WNYers take pride in their snowy winters, but at least NYSDOT and local towns/cities plows the roads for you.

 

Here in the PNW, they don't. Instead, they just let it sit there until the sun or rain melts it (which ain't happening soon... our temps are colder than Buffalo right now). Add to that equation lots of hilly terrain and hurricane-force wind gusts and you have a recipe for disaster. Like this bus that almost fell onto I-5 in Downtown Seattle: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/loca...924_bus20m.html. Or this bus that got stuck on SR 520, a couple miles from my place: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/ABPub/200.../2008535869.jpg

 

Here in Redmond we got 11" on Thursday and about another 2" tonight. Unless you have chains, you can't go anywhere. Luckily, my old ones fit my new car, and I've been able to get out and about. Yeah - you need chains, it's that bad.
