I, too, wish we could divorce downstate. Sigh. We end up paying our taxes to keep NYC afloat.
We have wonderful plows and systems to keep the snow away from the roads. There are times when it is hard to find places to put the snow for sure. Sometimes roofs cave in but people should be aware of that and keep surfaces shoveled off. I’ve never had to turn back from dialysis because of the snow. We’ve gotten through three or four nor-easter’s. I used to hate the snow but I don’t anymore. It’s part of living here. It’s better than having to worry if your house is going to be blown away in a hurricane or destroyed in a fire. The Southern tier suffers from severe flooding now and then and I’m glad I don’t live there.
You know what—this is a fire thread. Why don’t you go start your own to talk about snow? Okay? Thanks.
