Ahhh I don't know what to do!

This has never happened before!

What's odd is that at around noon-time, there wasn't a single cloud in the sky.

I remember it was noon-time cause we were out getting lunch at that point :D.

Sleep in another hour.... :)

(unless you're not there yet, in which case I suggest you use the extra time for travel. I-93 can be very nasty in bad weather)

are you new to new england, i say tomorrow by the end of the day, there isnt snow on the ground from the sun melting it because of our lovely weather

Re: 2007 BAE Systems GSR Weather Delay
 

Yeah, soinded like there was rain following the snow which mean it'll get knocked down pretty good and make a watery mess f things. Lot's of basements are due to be flooded.

We aren't taking the highway tomorrow. It shouldn't take us much more than half an hour to there. I think it took us half an hour to come home through the back way.

Haha. No, I've lived here my entire life. I was actually just being overly dramatic.

And yeah. I wouldn't be surprised it if all melted away by the end of the day.
Maybe my car will actually get washed! :cool:
