... Look at the bright side, you're not in Michigan. We have about 6inches currently, but... No plowed/salted streets.

I drove to work today by memory, I couldnt see the roads at all.

I always curse having to drive through Pennsylvania in the winter. They recently made a MASSIVE increase to the cost of their turnpike. I haven't run the full length of it lately, but BEFORE the increase it used to cost over a hundred bucks in my truck. Ouch. I fear the cost now. And for all of that revenue, they do a seriously shitty job of treating winter conditions. Last year on I-80 there was an accident that quite litterally involved over 50 vehicles. That is inexcusable.

On the other hand, driving across the New York Thruway (I-90) is almost always a pleasure, as the state does a fine job of winter road maintenance.

This is one time when I'm glad I'm not up in the north-east. Boston and Providence were calling for about two feet of snow. I go to that area quite a lot, but as good fortune would have it I am down here in the mid-atlantic just barely catching the southern edge of this storm.
