    Which would be closed thanks to the blizzard. You'd have to hire a hotshot private pilot...

    I don't think I've ever seen more than 2" or 3". 14" I'd think it was the apocalypse!

    That may be the most awesome blizzard escape ever....snowmobiling to a closed airport to be flown out by Harrison Ford.

    The awesome part comes when because of the freezing weather I just drove through he lets me put on the Chewie costume and ride shotgun with him. :D

    Philly has had lovely Irish weather this week. Cloudy and cool, but without freezing or dropping hellish frozen precipitation. Shorts with sweatshirt weather.

    Well yeah... you can't expect him to make a dangerous escape without his trusty sidekick. Someone has to wear the damn thing... ;)

    Maybe they're right....But I know till about noon today they were just saying it was going to be a dusting and now it's a Snow storm of DOOM. Granted I've been saying that since this weekend. lol

    It's the Snowmageddon! Start hoarding all the bottled water and sprayed cheese folks. Re-enforce your home, and have a gun ready because when the snow hits, there's no escape!

    Don't forget toilet paper. In North America, 2 days of snow somehow causes mass dysentery.

    You have no idea how awful this phenomenon actually is in NYC. Incidentally, it's also kinda hilarious.

    Not, not the gun part. That's never funny here. :( In the south, OTOH. :)

    About an inch or 2 of rain causes me to fret, so that much snowfall would cause either a panic attack or stroke.

    :p

    People crack me up at what they think they need for these things.

    EDIT: You are aware that much snow isn't even an inch of rain right?

    I'm in Connecticut. I know all about how snow gets overblown, and am practically in the home of the gun control debate. ;)

    My favorite panic moment was when generators started to sell out. That's right, $500+ generators were selling out before anyone actually lost power. And guess how many people actually lost it? 0

    It's infinitely better when every winter, SHOVELS sell out. Do people think they are disposable? Do that many shovels getted tossed out after a usage? How does the entire populace of a major metropolitan region somehow not own a shovel every single winter...

    Right before Sandy, you'd have thought they were never gonna make bread again the way people were scooping it off the shelves like crazy. Of course, a third of Manhattan did end up losing power, but that's beside the point. :p

    And I've had the same shovel for about 5 years. Plus an older one as well. It's just like whenever it rains people always end up buying cheap umbrellas from street vendors.

    You know the crazy thing about shovels. They break a lot. If we have a good winter we go through at least 2 here at the hotel. But they don't make shovels like they use too.
