Another day, another snowstorm they’re trying to get us to obsess over. This time, it seems to be headed for everybody here in the Northeast. We got an inch or three overnight here, and the lo-cal teevee weather dork is predicting six to ten total by the time things pass through completely. Of course, after storms pass by here, they bring a sort of “back-door draft” across Lake Ontario, which means lake effect snow – probably another three to seven inches by tomorrow night. Not exactly a blizzard, but enough to get the shovel (which has been standing idle in the garage for the past week or so) out. We’ve had about 111″ so far this season (we’re kicking butt for the NY State “Golden Snowball” award – as usual – leading Buffalo and Rochester by over 30″), so this ought to take us over the ten foot mark.

On the bright side, it might actually get as warm as 30 degrees today, and that’d be pretty damn summer-like.
