Winter Weather Advisory
This was the weather in the Catskills this morning, as I was driving back to Ithaca:
Aaah! Prius and F150 owners alike had skewed off the road into ditches, but my brave little ‘95 Civic kept chugging. That was mostly due to driving at a grandpa-like 30mph instead of the posted 65mph.
It takes huge globs of concentration to drive in untreated road conditions like that. Normally you can psyche yourself up for it as the winter tenses it’s fists, but today the snow popped out of nowhere. We were walking around central park in T-shirts a day ago, for crying out loud.
Well that sunny weather is over with: the Catskills are getting wiped with 15 inches of snow tonight.
At least I didn’t get stuck in that.
