We were scheduled to fly out of Boston 7pm Wednesday--peak of the storm. Lucky to get a 5:30am flight Friday since it is the start of school vacation week. Wonder if we will get any sleep. Have to leave for airport by 2:30am. Glad I picked up my pills for the flight. May have to use them Thursday to get to sleep.

 

Just glad the weekend storm missed us.

 

Snow Gods: Please reroute snow to Vancouver and northeast ski areas.

When is this global warming gonna start?

 

I totally agree. I live in Daytona and we are going to have below freezing temps tomorrow night for about the 10th time this year. We even had sleet during the last cold spell in the end of Jan. This is the coldest winter in Central Florida since the late 1970's.

 

GLOBAL WARMING MY ARSE! :D
