Overrated…yesterday’s blizzard in New York

So, we were being warned for days that New York was going to be hit by a brutal blizzard that would shut everything down. It did pretty much shut everything down–because everyone believed the hype. Schools and businesses all decided the night before that they would not be open. My company was even closed , which is a shock, because it pretty much never closes. Yet, by around noon yesterday, I was looking out my front door and thinking, “Man, my company must be kicking itself for closing down today. This snowstorm is laughable.” The roads were completely clear! But well into the night, the news reports continued to totally blow the storm’s intensity out of proportion. No one seems to remember the two feet of snow we got in December! Now THAT was a blizzard. A sadly ignored blizzard. Just look at the clip above. My dogs were practically drowning in the snow. They couldn’t even relieve themselves in the yard because their pee-pees were all pressed up against the cold white drifts! They haven’t had even the slightest problem taking care of business in this storm.
