"NYC Blizzard 30.4 inches"


Oh my it did my aged heart good to see an old fashioned life threatening blizzard once more. That is "once more" before I kick the bleeping bucket. Yep the Angels answered by deranged prayer, and gave us a Humdinger!

Of course I was out in the teeth of it like the snow fan I am. Had the time of my life!

Couldn't see 20 feet in front of me. Was even caught in a true "White-Out!"  I saw what looked like a spinning wall of white coming up the block. For a second I thought, "I better move or my goose is cooked!'

'But just for a second.

I stayed put, and was caught for several amazing seconds in a world of snow, and ice. It was like they say. "You're in the middle of a glass snow globe"

'...and I was!

However as all good things it petered out about mid-night. Still what a time we had. Over 30 inches at JFK. 27'' in my hood close to that all over the place.

I went out a few times during the day. In the morning with my pal "Bob the Bunny", see below, the afternoon, and especially early evening. This during the height of the storm. That's when I got ate up by that white-out.

I tell ya...I can hardly wait for the next one!


 Stay Tuned.
