how many decimetres have you got there

We measure things differently here--we're about a four or five chocolate glazed high. I'm heading out with shovel...tell the world my story.

That really is a lot of snow out there--much worse than that "Snowmageddon" of two years ago that turned out to be no big deal in Toronto. But I realize it's even worse in NYC and thereabouts. Seems like we've gotten off relatively easy a lot the past few years; we're forfeiting our god-given right as Canadians to be supercilious about bad weather.

I think we're too far west to get the worst of it; we're "only" supposed to get a foot, and right now there's maybe 1"-2" on the ground.

(upstate NY, about 150 miles due north of NYC)

its not supposed to stop here until late saturday? something like that.

scott seward, Friday, 8 February 2013 22:20 (eleven years ago) link

We're up to 20 cm/8 inches here. I went out for a short trip and got stuck twice--once on my street, once in a parking lot.

- only a slushy inch or so here so far, but it's freezing up and getting messy
- savages bought all the skim milk; had to get 1%
- rough night to be a food delivery guy

scott seward, Saturday, 9 February 2013 01:52 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah I don't think you're even allowed to drive here right now. The only cars I can see are emergency vehicles and snowplows.

johnny crunch, Saturday, 9 February 2013 02:22 (eleven years ago) link

I hear teh wholing winds
I do not like them
the snow is fluffy
like sugar of the Captian
I hope for the best
please mighty one spare us!

I kind of can't even see much through the windows anymore. The Dunkin Donuts across the street looks like it's still open though.

almost had a disaster tonight --
was in a hurry to get home and left my keys hanging in the lock at work (i am an idiot.)
but i got home and realized i had no keys and took a can back to work and thank god they were still there.
helen is at work until 12 or 1 or 2 or so, depending, and our roommate is MIA.

but i am home now and almost drunk and listening to jerry jeff walker and making italian sausage with eggs and potatoes.

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Saturday, 9 February 2013 02:35 (eleven years ago) link

took a CAB back to work

mookieproof, Saturday, 9 February 2013 02:46 (eleven years ago) link

As long as you're sure your roommate isn't, like, under a snowdrift somewhere between home and the subway, he'll probably come through okay. Glad to hear about your keys & return home!!
