I heard a report last night that there's a possibility Lake Shore Drive could flood in places...!
We are expecting that storm to arrive in Boston tomorrow... today we got 6-8 fluffy inches, in the first part of this 1, 2 punch. I just came in from shoveling 18 inches of accumulated snow off the flat part of our roof. Tomorrow we'll get up to another foot, but wetter, with sleet & rain. Are we having fun yet? I've laid in supplies for the duration, too. Pot of soup on the stove, meatballs about to go in, a chicken on deck, wine to be uncorked... the only difficulty I foresee is that we are down to only 2 extra rolls of t.p. Might have to start rationing, if the storms don't let up... Best of luck -- be safe! :) -c On Tue, Feb 1, 2011 at 5:00 PM, Christine Aguila <cagu...@earthlink.net> wrote: > It was expected to start at 3p, but it started a half hour early.
