Yep. I don't fancy that very much. The relatively pathetic amount of snowfall we had here in London town last month was annoying enough. Have you been badly affected wherever the heck you live?

21.1 inches is the official count – 4th worst (or BEST!!!!) snowstorm in the city's history.

My street (which is more like a smallish one-way alley) hasn't been touched – there's a trail down the middle where some people walked the first day (before the landlord had a trench shoveled out along the sidewalk). A lot of people spent Saturday cleaning off their cars, but I don't think they'll be driving any time soon.

There's a storm warning for Tuesday and Wednesday, calling for upwards of 6 more inches of snow, but seeing as how the storm system hasn't fully formed yet, I think that's them being cautious.

This was Saturday morning around the corner and up the hill from where I live:


I was lucky not to lose power, but some friends of mine in another neighborhood didn't have it for a solid 24 hours. My parents, who live about an hour southeast, lost power on Friday around 9PM and as of 4PM yesterday, it still wasn't back on.

They closed the university Monday, so bonus day off.

East coast pansies…93.6″ LAST YEAR. MOST OF IT ALL AT ONCE. We would have killed for a measly 21. 21″ is a minor inconvenience here!

We're not in 2001 anymore, that's for sure.


 I had about 8 snowflakes go in my eye on the cycle ride home today, and I didn't enjoy any one of them. I don't envy you folks.
