Who else had a white knuckle commute today?

[2knees]

i'll take driving in 3 feet of snow over that disaster. 1/3" or so of flash frozen death out there.

holy crap.

I made it in to work before it all started.

95 in Southern CT was clear of snow. It was the morons driving 5 mph that gave me white knuckles. Of the anger variety.

 

[wa-loaf]

Working from home, but it hasn't reached us anyway.

The green/red/silver lines weren't too bad from Copley to the convention center in Boston this AM - too bad I didn't look at my convention guide as I showed up at 9 looking to walk around all the vendors booths before the course i'm taking today - problem is the vendors booth areas didn't open until 10! DOH!!!!!!

Isn't the total snowfall going to be an inch or two? I see schools have early dismissal already

It was pretty hairy by me this morning. It didn't look slippery, but it was like an ice skating rink out there. By far the worst I've seen the roads in a long time. Seemed like the road crews were completely unprepared.

I don't know why they'd have early dismissal, may as well wait for it to pass first...

Nothing in the Boston area yet but I'm expecting a bit of a mess for the evening commute.

from they way wtic made it sound, rt 8 was like the highway of death out of bahgdad. cars just spun out all over the place.

It is bad out there. I turned around after an hour of cursing and yelling at people. The Jeep would have made it to Norwalk but I was sick of the traffic. Time to start a fire and do some work from home.

YOU SUCK!

i dropped the kids off this morning and thinking it was just a flurry figured i'd just bring the mini van back and switch cars at lunch time. now i have to drive back up 91 and take the civic back to work in this mess.

Yay!
