No cancellations so far but that doesn't mean much. The day is early . Snow is to arrive tonight. Clear on Friday.
We are in New England and at this point of winter, we're tougher. And we are dying to get away!!!
So, since the storm is on Thursday, I expect by Friday, everyone will be keeping their plans to get away. We are half full for the weekend.
I understand in the South, things are different and snow storms are different. Hope everyone in the South is warm and cozy and where they need to be!.
Yes, that repeats every year here. First snow, even if it's just 1/2 inch, everything shuts down, everybody rushes out to buy milk and bread like they will be trapped at home for weeks.TheBeachHouse said:...at this point of winter, we're tougher.
We are calmly awaiting the calls to cancel. It's why I no longer give free roses and chocolates this weekend. I kept getting stuck with flowers I don't like.
I've got something non perishable this year!.
We have champagne splits and red Hershey's Kisses. No harm if we have to keep them.Madeleine said:We are calmly awaiting the calls to cancel. It's why I no longer give free roses and chocolates this weekend. I kept getting stuck with flowers I don't like.

Thanks Riki...... Just got home, no cancellations so far. Hope Friday is 45.Mary, here it's going to be 45 degrees after the snow. And they say rain in DC. So I imagine the roads will be clear for Friday.
Riki.
FREE roses and chocolates...NO Way on V'day. That is up to the guys to give.We are calmly awaiting the calls to cancel. It's why I no longer give free roses and chocolates this weekend. I kept getting stuck with flowers I don't like.

I-81 is closed in this section, and planes are cancelled, and one room cancelled of the three for tonight.
I spoke to all of them yesterday, they acted like "if they could just land they would be okay" the roads are a giant traffic gnarl, even a fatality. They ask you to STAY OFF the roads, not go on them unless and emergency.
Meanwhile, here at the homestead:
Meet Dude
and youngest daughter and again
and both, the whole fam and me.
What a cute family! Wow how many inches have y'all gotten.Joey Bloggs said:

They called they will be here. in 3 or so hours. It is 7pm. I tried really hard to convince them. I-81 is shut down in parts, 13 mile back up in Pulaski. I asked which interstate or hwy they are taking? "Whatever one the GPS chooses..."EmptyNest said:Daughter getting married..oh my...I don't know how she could possibly drive to VA from GA safely!!!

The same thing happened to us last weekend! Freak snow storm, roads closed, chains required, shouldn't drive warnings! I tried to talk guests from coming and we would happily reschedule them...2 rooms came anyway. I worried the whole time on Friday and then again on Sunday when they left. Was hoping they made it home!Daughter getting married..oh my...I don't know how she could possibly drive to VA from GA safely!!!

So they have to park out front and climb up the snowy steps, the back is not plowed. I expect them to roll in super late...but I know it is for a good reason, so I can't blame them!
