    I know you've gotten some serious snow lately, but be thankful you don't live over in the Tug Hill plateau region of NY.....east of Lake Ontario is going to get hammered. Predictions of up to 6 FEET in some spots:

    I can remember the bay's beaches piled with ice and I definitely can remember the January/February blast of 1971.

    I don't recall that one, but then I was in DaNang Vietnam at that time. Jungle, banana tress and monkeys, rockets, and bullets, but no cold snap. Just don't shut "incoming" and I'm ok.
