Former friends husband, now retired from DOT, did snowplow duty. It's hard work. I have mad respect for them and do whatever is in my power to make their job easier. They loved me at my old condo complex as the minute I heard the plow, I was running outside to move my car. I was in an "end" space and wanted to be sure they had a place to push the snow. One time, the driver pointed out that my pants were on inside out. Good times...

You are very fortunate. We never get the paper the day of a storm, period, never mind in time. But at least I can read it online even though I prefer the actual paper in my hands.

Growing up we lived on a circle and had the burden of a hill of snow pushed to our driveway. As we grew up and moved out, my mom called the town and told them how hard this was and the driver made a note to push it to the side, thankfully. This was the days of big storms and no snowblowers.

Losing power with heavy snow is always the concern and that did not seem to be an issue this week. So we are grateful.
