Snow.. snow and more snow!!!! Anyone kept up with the weather reports in New England? We had a storm 2 weeks ago that dumped 2+ feet of snow, since then we've had 3 storms that have dumped anywhere from 8 inches to a foot. So we currently have about 3 feet of snow and HUGE snow banks that town DPWs and private companies are having shipped out to make room on the roads. We have 6+ foot snow banks. We have been buried. But to make matters worse, the temperature has not gotten into the 30s in 2 weeks so nothing is melting! This is really posing a problem.
This morning we had a dusting to an inch, ok, no problem.... it took me 2.5 hours to get to work this morning. Traffic was HORRIBLE everywhere!!! I mean it was soooooo bad I saw or heard of more than 6 accidents in my commute path. This is for a DUSTING of snow!!! Ive driven in 3x this year in snow that was anywhere between 8 inches to a foot and had better commutes every time!
So now they are saying we are getting possibly another foot of snow by thurs morning's commute and another 6 inches for saturday! AARRGGGG Anyone feel like flying me and my 2 boys out somewhere where there is no snow???? The poor dogs are crossing their legs and whining because they have to pee and do not want to go out in -17 degree weather!!! YEP, thats right.... -17 sunday night and -5 last night!!! Yesterday it hit 8 degrees for a high!!! Its only jan and I am already soooooo sick of winter this year!!! Funny thing is, we've gotten all this snow in the last 2 weeks... before that we had hardly nothing at all! Not even a white Christmas!
