Lovely day today. 6 inches already on the ground at 10 AM. snow currently falling at 2-3 inches per hour, with wind gusts up to 45 mph. Nor'easters suck.

As to our beloved governor declaring all non-essential road travel banned for the day, I have mixed feelings. I understand the logic. It makes it much easier for first responders and plow trucks. The downside? We lose a splendid opportunity for a Darwinian thinning of the herd. It's not unlike banning swimming during hurricanes. Culling those who would do such a thing before they have the chance to breed would be a net gain for society.
