more snow. and then some.

so, apparently, i posted too soon. for about 24 hours, from late saturday morning to late sunday morning, we acquired another 12 inches of snow. and then yesterday, "40% chance of flurries in the afternoon" turned into yet another inch of snow in an hour and a half. and then flurries, yes. for another few hours.

this almost caused my friend's plane from heathrow to be re-routed to newark at the last minute. it is an absolutely amazing feeling to be crawling down towards the airport at 35 miles per hour or so on a 6-lane expressway and have the phone system at the airport tell you that instead of 7:14pm, it will now be coming in at 9pm. and then, 20 minutes later, to be telling you 7:55pm.

but it all came out in the end. and we have a lovely snowscape to greet him with. as well as horrendous driving conditions. more snow tonight. remind me not to grumble about winter again. yeesh.
