| A little more than a dusting over night, but forecast for 6"-14" by tomorrow afternoon. I guess this is just a wait & see sort of thing! Towanda | |

| you know they're hardly ever right when they forecast this but they're swearing this time it's going to happen. the only thing is if it isn't all on the ground by 6 i still have to go to work and then the drive home is a nightmare. |

| I guess it's because I was born and raised in the frozen tundra... The heat will break me down WAY faster than the cold, however. (I don't even like 80's!) If I could only find a place that never got any warmer or colder than 65 or 70 degrees F..... | |

| It will be a crazy day all around. My son's school is closed so I will have to drag him into work with me. Also have to bring hubby to the airport. He was suppose to fly to Atlanta yesterday but Atlanta's airport was shut down so he is trying to get out today. | |

| According to PHL's site, it is opened and the flight is not delayed or cancelled yet per both PHL and US Airways. I have a feeling though he will be hanging around the airport for a long time today. | |

| so after my husband cleared most of the snow out of the driveway there's a good dent and long scratch on my convertible. i got the car last summer and it's never even really gotten dirty that's how good i take care of that car. darn darn darn. and of course i have a $1,000 deductible so i guess i'm paying for this repair. i guess i shouldn't have that high of a deductible but how else can you afford the darn insurance. |

| My husband was scheduled to leave Orlando this morning for Norfolk, but 20 minutes before the flight was to leave--Southwest cancelled it. They said they can't get anyone out until tomorrow!!! Ugggg. My brother-in-law has been stuck in the Charlotte airport for 24 hours now and his flight out tonight was cancelled again!!! | |

| Staci and I drove back from the mountains yesterday. The north Ga mountains didn't get much but when we went through Atlanta it looked like the cable went out on my TV!!! And you want to talk about wrecks....mix a redneck with a snow ball...and that's what you get...a wreck. |

| Milwaukee airport got 18+ inches of lake effect snow yesterday. It only got a short distance off the Lake Michigan shoreline, so most of the area got nothing. It was concentrated in an area about three miles from Lake Michigan and about four miles or so North to South. Very localized, but very miserable if you were in that area. |
