The city seems to be screeching to a halt over the "blustery snowstorm" on the East Coast. But it didn't seem like much to write home about to this native Michigander.
Tell me about it! This lake-effect Upstater scoffs at anything less than 12 inches. (that's what she said?)
But NYC's not so bad. I lived in DC for 6+ years. Neither the municipality nor the populace know how to handle anything more than 2 inches. It's sort of funny, at least now that I don't live there anymore.
Spring has arrived on my block of the Upper West Side. Why doesn't my heart go dancing?

Kenneth - I live in the neighborhood and really enjoy your blog - Thanks!!
I'm with you, also as a former Michigander, this hysteria about the snow just cracks me up.
