More snow

36hours of snow over the weekend, started at 4pm on Saturday, as forecasted. Before that there was a mad rush to get sufficient supplies of grocery, batteries, gas (for cars and generators). Its pretty scary. Everyone was trying to make it home before the storm hits.

Are we prepared ? Not really, we have non-perishable food stuffs (like biscuits/cookies) to last for a day if power outage occurs (*touch wood!*). But flashlights, batteries, radio are missing. We reckon if we got hit, we will move to a nearby hotel to stay. ;)

Due to the heavy snow, most of the offices were closed on Monday. The good part is I got company at home. (Hurray!) But the snow is making it tough for cars and people to move around, especially after it has melted and frozen to ice. Many cars skidded, or were unable to move up slopes. Wheels keep spinning but the car just can't move. For the first time, we realize snow is not fun at all.
