Eastern aspects? What does this mean? The storm is coming from the west.

A month ago?? That's almost exactly when the winter turned into winter. Thanks Ty.

I'm probably heading up Thursday night. No way am I driving Wednesday night. Kudos to those who were able to drive up last night.

I have been working since early December but only a month at the current job. My starting working had nothing to do with Ma Nature finally sending some of the snow our way but I am grateful that she finally turned the storms our way.

took me 4 1/2 from CT on a normal 3 hours drive. Things got worse quickly after I got here and that was about 12:30.

Went from the work site to my house in clarendon and the visibility sucks as do the roads. Intersections are clogged with over a foot of crap and the roads are not staying clear. Now there is drifting also.

Only from the driving. Get behind a semi doing 35 and lofting snow so you can't see. You pass and they are on your ass. Then a 4X4 with trailer passes you at 65. WTF up with that? Like he could actually stop if he had to?

Up to work, If I play that is a bennefit. I'll take what I get and be on the hill Friday or Saturday. Hell most of you will not get here until LATE Thursday anyway due to poor conditions.

Drive Safe.
