Where my son is, the plows are keeping up so far. Of course, that might get a little tougher if they get five inches in two hours, as reported from Islip.

Indeed. The heavy equipment was out in force in the WalMart parking lot and others, and that was this morning. At this moment, I'd easily dare to make a grocery run. Our street has maybe 3" on it, and it hasn't been plowed since noon, I'd guess.
BUT, I don't pretend to think it's going to be safe enough going all night. Even this AM, there were some serious wrecks (19 car pileup on the interstate near Falmouth, rollovers and off the road on the Maine Turnpike, near NH), and it's tougher going now than it was then. Steady wind, and continuous snowfall. I'm not going out unless there is some sort of medical emergency, and everybody here is restricted from doing anything that might get them hurt ;-)
I like big snow storms, as long as we don't lose electricity.
