Maybe another inch or two here.

I can't believe Buffalo has the 6th highest amount of snow in the country. This has not been a harsh winter IMO.

Then I turn on the tv and hear about how the rest of the country is getting pounded with snow, and they're all in a panic...and they're not even in the top 6.

Again, this is a nation of pansies.

Sorry to hear about your sunroof troubles! Most of them have a tool that comes with the car you can insert somewhere to manually open/shut. You may need to pop a panel off to access the manual gearing...

I always kept the tool for my Prelude handy but never needed it. Sunroof opened and closed under it's own power and never leaked - which I gather is rare as I once read about "those infamous Prelude sunroofs"

Well, when the IBM facility I work at has as much snow clearing equipment as my entire home town of 140K+ people...I'd say the people in my home town have reason to fear.

We got no new snow here for which I am very thankful!

Rain and warmer weather has eroded some of the nasty white stuff but my poor S is still nearly buried.

But Upstate has the resources and infrastructure to deal with snow removal. People here are used to it. In my time in Memphis, it only ever snowed once and the city shutdown. Last season and this year, they've had multiple storms and they dont have the equipment to deal with it.

They know how to deal with tornadoes though.

Got another 3-4 inches I would say
It's going to be one hell of a melt if it happens all at once
