What's the crisis music for a "snow hurricane"?

Thanks everyone for the good wishes. Unfortunately, we just cancelled our trip. I think DW and I would be able to get out on time tomorrow, but the big question mark was my sister-in-law driving from Cleveland to Rochester to watch the girls while we're gone. The plan was to put the girls on the school bus, we would leave, the girls would come home to friends and wait for the "Cool Aunt" to arrive Thursday evening from Cleveland. Everything we're reading says the Cool Aunt would be driving right into the teeth of the storm. It just doesn't look safe for her to be driving, and seems like a lot to ask of her. So we did the conservative thing and called it off.

**sigh** it stinks being an adult sometimes...

:hug:

I'm sorry to hear that you had to be the grown up. Maybe this means that your rescheduled trip is going to be even more special!
 
Sorry to hear you aren't able to make it Dave. I am sure you will do something cool with the girls on your snowy weekend.
 

I'm sorry you had to cancel your trip, but you did the right thing. Just start planning for the next trip. Have fun in the snow with your girls! Stay safe.
 
Your snow hurricane has reached us this morning and has turned into a rain blizzard (no, not the Weather channel's words:lmao:). Winds gusting to 100kmh (60 mph) and 100mm of rain (~3-4 inches). Lots of areas with electricity knocked out, localized flooding and possible storm surge flooding. This is on top of the snow that we have currently on the ground covering the storm sewers, of course. Still, I won't have to shovel it:thumbsup2. Lots of delays at the airport but I don't think there will be many cancellations.
 
The weather here is been INSANE.

It snowed all yesterday. Heavily. From early morning to early this morning. It's finally stopped...for now. We had a huge branch fall on our roof (thankfully I don't think it damaged anything), there's snow past my knees, and multiple big branches that fell around our property. (Luckily they didn't hit anything.) There's also snow weighing down branches so badly they're touching our windows. I haven't seen anything like this in years. Needless to say, my work is closed - not that I could get out anyway. Some huge branches fell in our driveway, blocking my part of the garage. I'm scared to send my dogs outside! And we're supposed to get more snow and wind today! (Although it's not snowing now.) I'm going to stay inside and hope our power stays on.
 
On LI, it was a monsoon all day yesterday, switched over to snow in the evening and now we have 6-8" of wet heavy snow weighing down all the trees shrubs and power lines and it's still snowing. What a mess. :sad2:
I'm off to the moving to Fl. thread. I can dream, can't I ;)
 
-smirk- I'm not going to dignify a certain someone's comment with a response. ;)

It's been snowing like all holy heck the past two days. I've been out of work for both and it is still coming down. The winds are still pretty bad. I'm just hoping it stops soon so that it won't ruin my weekend plans.

Stay warm, everyone! :)
