The quick run-down:
- Bergen County schools, universities and colleges closed
- up to 2 hours of delayed opening in State and private offices
- winter storm warning till 4 p.m.
- blustery winds and low temps. (20F/-8C), layers a must!
- snow is too powdery and any attempt at making a snowman will not work
- powdery snow blowing into your face feels like a million splinters cutting your skin - aw!
Just as we thought we had seen the last of winter, it made an unexpected return last night through much of today. Living true to the saying, "March comes in like a lion and out like a lamb," we are now entering the second phase of this winter storm. Our area is expected to receive a total of 7 - 11 inches of powdery snow by this afternoon. Although it's not the worst, it is still not a good idea to be out and about if you don't have to.
Luckily, my boss agreed to switch my flex day (i.e. day off) from Friday to today. Phew! Treacherous road conditions and commuting delays aren't something that a person who has an hour long commute to and fro NY City wants to hear. So, I've decided to stay home and bake some meringue puffs to take my mind of work and my flooded Lotus Notes in-box. Hmm...
Several hours later
What's next? Stay warm, I supposed.
