INTENSE LOW PRESSURE TRACKING SOUTHEAST OF LONG ISLAND OVERNIGHT WILL RESULT IN A PERIOD OF HEAVY SNOW AND GUSTY WINDS ACROSS THE AREA. SNOWFALL ACCUMULATIONS OF 10 TO 18 INCHES...WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS AS HIGH AS 24 INCHES...ARE EXPECTED. HIGHEST ACCUMULATIONS ARE EXPECTED OVER NEW YORK CITY AND COASTAL CONNECTICUT...WITH LOWER AMOUNTS NORTH

I'm very glad I no longer live on Long Island! :)

Be very glad indeed!

Meanwhile, second shift person was much more personable than usual, most likely because I got in even before 11 to get her out of here.

It's amazing how nice people can suddenly become when they want something, isn't it? LOL

[firefly124]

It really, really is. :D

Mum just sent me pictures. I'm having serious, *serious* winter envy. *sigh*

Dude, you can have it!

Am ded. Skelaxin is my bestest friend ever after shoveling, and it's light and fluffy stuff. Can't imagine if it'd been heavy.

[bluedolfyn]

Heh. I actually think the light stuff is harder to shovel, in those amounts. :o( It's only good when you can sweep it instead. (((hugs))

Since you were up at night, did you get that totally weird glowing sky bit?

I looked out the window around 3 a.m. and it was enough of a pink glow I tripled checked the clock to make sure it wasn't sunrise.

I had the blinds closed, so I don't know if we got that effect here. Damn, sounds like it was cool, if a bit weird.
