We had a blizzard last year, got a little over 2 feet. Usually Long Island gets hit with these nor'easters, but so far, the only nor'easter this year went too far north to get a lot of snow. This winter has sucked.
We had a snow storm the other day, and it thundered during it. It was almost a whiteout. That's the second time that's happened in a few weeks. I've never heard of that before.
A far cry from the snow falls we used to get back in the 70s and 80s though. I can remember one particularly bad blizzard that dumped so much snow that it we couldn't get out of our door the next morning. I had to jump out the back window and crawl around (on top of the snow)to the front gallery where the shovel was buried. The snow was almost up to the roof at the front of the house. There had to have been 12 feet of snow in the driveway, and dad's car was buried under it somewhere. The snow banks were 20 feet high on both sides of the streets that year. Was kind of hard to shovel snow when there was no place left to put it. Today we get a foot of snow and all hell breaks loose. Wimps!
Michael: Jodie, how's my schedule look for today? Jodie: You've got a conference and dinner party at the Japanese Embassy regarding wildlife protection. Michael: Oh, yeah...sorry, but I'll have to cancel that. I'm heading out to save America!
Nah. We had one in January, and two right before President's Week.

We've had five, using up all of our snow days. We might get a delay tomorrow. We should have had one this morning. It was terrible. Took my mom over an hour to get to work.
