34 degrees out according to the weather channel but it continues to snow~ doesn't that mean it has to be below 32?

Up here they're still saying there could be some rain mixed in at some point, which seems absolutely impossible.

Vixdad is trapped in Brooklyn - the LIRR suspended service because of weather -  apparently there were trees and wires down  at various locations
Yikes. Adding that to the prayer/vibe list, too. Does he know of anywhere he can go?

Not that I can explain it (I can't), but:  no, it doesn't.  

Not necessarily. Depends on the temperature in the upper levels of the atmosphere and where it is pulling the cold air from. Snow can accumulate up to 35 degrees depending on the temperatures aloft, ground temperature and dewpoint.

I went to get my flu shot today. The ones near me are only in December. But my sister wanted me to go with her. My niece bawled like a baby. :(
But so did the 4 year old after her.

Next year let the older one go first & tell her to be brave for her sister.

It makes more sense for you to go with your sister & niece's instead of waiting until December.

Well I went first with my own lady giving the shots. My sister went first, then younger niece, then older niece. They said that the youngest should go first. Cause when they see the needle they get upset. But if my sister hadn't gone first then how would she have taken care of my niece (who was crying way more AFTER the shot). We should have let my older niece go first, but she didn't want to. Cause she was quite anxious by the time it was her turn.

Then why not split the kids up and one go with you?

Well i went first. So i was done before they started.  They my sister went. Then the little one sat on my sister's lap and cried. Then i took her away. Then my older niece went next on my sister's lap.Apparently she was a bit teary and anxious.

Vote, vote, vote (that is three votes).  The show that's above us, the Titanic concert has a big huge cast and all the Musical Theatre Guild people will vote.  That's what this is all about, I'm afraid, but then again I have a LOT of friends :)  Also, the Sterling's Next Great Stage Star thing which is running neck and neck with us has a lot of followers.

And some of us (and them too, I'm sure) have more than one e-mail address. ::)

;)

Yes, just indulged in a second round.

Umm...so did I. :D

I just realized that if power were to be lost again here, we're past the point of decision  -- there'd be no question of trying to get anywhere for the night.  First, my driveway probably isn't passable.  House is warm now, just bundle it up and ride it out, storm will be gone by mid-morning, gather things in the daylight and then get out.  

I hate even thinking about this stuff...twice in two weeks.

That was it!  Long sucker, eh?  And you should see the other end where it descends to the road.    :)

Yes, still got firewood, but after this it's time for another 1/4- or 1/2-cord.

I have a friend's house lined up.  But it would have to be tomorrow.  They're some 10-15 miles away.

(I hadn't yet gotten my usual fall delivery of wood, so these two storms themselves are pretty much depleting what was left over from last year.)
