Have I mentioned lately I hate New England Winters? :D

I heard that Pittsburgh got about 5 inches but it was all done by late aftenoon. Won't effect the game tomorrow. It's really too bad it wasn't in Foxboro. I live in the town next to Foxboro and the forcast is for 20-30 inches. Ending tomorrow mid-day.

She-Rahn Bed & Breakfast? Sounds like a foreign place or something....Are those Sun tickets included?

You guys are probably right. I'm not really used to seeing this amount of snow coming at once. I mean we do get plenty over the course of the Winter season, and it stays, so we have a lot on the front and backyard, but now that I think about it, 10-14 inches in one snowstorm is about the max I've seen in recent years... We do get it sometimes much colder though, like it is right now...

Update: The Weatherbug Blizzard report is now saying that this could be "one of the five worst snowstorms in recorded New England history"

The She-Rahn Bed & Breakfast has a full range of daily activities available to its guests. Sporting events included.

Well, the snow's slower now.. but I measured an openfield out there, 32.5 inches of snow so far, and we're not done yet. We lost power for a bit, the wind is fierce.. I may call into work tommorrow if the wind continues to be this bad. :/

I live on the evac route in the North End of Boston...a few suckers didn't get their cars out and they are absolutely buried and probably have 10 tickets.
