I always follow the NOAA forecasts- whoever writes the "Hazardous Weather Outlook" bits has a good sense of humor. I've seen comments ranginf from "Raining cats and dogs" to "toad strangler", one of my favorite NCP-realted phrases (well, that and turd floater, but I don't think they'd print that one. Hearing the weather band voice say "turd floater" would cause some accidental beverage through the nose reactions, though...)

Actually I gave one of my bosses a ride in today. We were talking about the upcoming snow and he said "So you'll be calling in sick for work tomorrow huh?"...

I need to save my vacation days though...

THIS IS TENDING TO LOOK TO BE MORE OF A MINOR
COASTAL FLOODING EVENT. JURY STILL OUT AND SO THE WATCH CONTINUES.

Heh.

They're closing my office now (Morris country, NJ 3:30PM Eastern). You should see all doom and gloom around here, and on the inside, I'm bouncing off the walls! Mountain Creek or Hunter Mountain, HERE I COME!!!

Regardless of what y'all are doing tomorrow, be careful on the roads...remember that is why school, work, etc is canceled so don't drive too fast to the mtns and get in a crash.

Went up last week during the President's Day storm and though I'm used to winter driving from growing up in VT, there are others who aren't and could hit you. Besides this, driving in the stuff is not fun

Good advice... Be carefull...
Dont drive to work!!!

I only have a few minute walk to the ski area...
But I drive on POW days so the plow guy can get to the driveway...
