Default Tri-state drivers becareful out there Snow/Ice..

Yet another significant snow fall for us tri-state folks.. I witnessed cars sliding all over the place early morning due to the roads not being plowed & treated in a timely manner. Drive safely! Here is a quick camera phone pic of the messy road in lower Manhattan this morning..

You work for the city or something? Why would you be driving to Manhattan on a day like this?

Not a NYC employee B.. I drive in everyday because I am not fond of public transport especially on a day like today.. That is why have 4 wheel drive vehicles to get me through the rough stuff drama free..

The worst storm of the year possible on Tuesday.. Can you say Blizzard..

The storm will intensify over the Northeast or eastern Great Lakes on Tuesday, potentially leading to dangerous blizzard conditions to the west of its center. Severe blowing and drifting snow with extremely poor visibility will make travel nearly impossible. http://www.accuweather.com/news-top-headline.asp

Your boy will still drive in
