THE INTENTION OF THE DELAY IS TO ENCOURAGE THE TEAMS AND VOLUNTEERS TO TAKE THE APPROPRIATE AMOUNT OF TIME TO COMMUTE IN ANTICIPATION OF THE FORECASTED SNOW STORM.
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!
Well, two members of 229 just completed the 6 hour drive down from potsdam new york and we met very little snow only a few dustings, hopefully this will hold out until tomorow, sky is looking pretty clear. good luck teams
