just heard on the news that ComEd has 78,000 customers without power in this horrible blizzard. The winds are causing tree limbs to bring down the lines...it is too dangerous for ComEd to send employees out to work on these...
We are having a thunderstorm in this blizzard...and it is snowing a couple of inches an hour....

Calgon take me away..........

I live in Northern NY and we are not supposed to get it very bad at all. We are one of the lucky areas. I did make sure I had everything in just in case.
