You call this a blizzard? Here in the west/midwest this would be considered a nice winter day.
Don't be a fool - this thing hasn't even gotten started yet!
You implied that C Ford might be a fool. Well, Einstein, I am in agreement with him. So many pictures already - and of what? A little wind? A little snow? Unless someone lives under a rock, he or she knows about the upcoming blizzard. We click on the pictures expecting to actually see some of the significant effects of the storm - not pictures of people walking on snow-free sidewalks.
Clicked on the pictures to see the blizzard and I didn't see anything but a little snow. All of this media about the poor east and nothing to report. Wait and see if the storm is going to hit, and if it does, then report on something.
Looks like some Al Gore global warming to me
Looks like fun!
