Snow Storm

I'm going to hold off some interesting stories to bring you live news on the snow storm. W says that the Channel News Asia site mentioned the storm. Well, it's been snowing since last night. Snowed lightly the day before, stopped and returned with more gusto last night. When we got up, everything was covered in snow. There's supposed to be 10-15 inches on the ground by the end today. Thankfully for me, I'm warm and toasty at home. Of course, poor W has to trudge through the slosh to get to work. School, even the colleges, are closed for today. When I first heard snow storm, images of hurricanes and cyclones came to mind, but I've found out that the snow storm is our equivalent of the thunderstorm except that this has potentially worse complications. The snow really impacts the pp who have to commute to work, who live in houses or in the suburbs. During the last major storm, electricity supply was cut off at some suburban places, not to mention the increased numbers of accidents, the restricted mobility, the shoveling and the cold.. Just when we thought that it was getting warmer here. At least this tropical girl is admiring the view of her winter wonderland next to the heater...
