However, the threat is always forgotten by the following winter, thus allowing the cycle to repeat endlessly.

Yeah, that's what she saw earlier today.

She has a layover in Detroit, though. Her company has a policy where only so many employees are allowed on any single flight, so she got bumped from the Seattle non-stop to a layover in Detroit. Hopefully that doesn't create a problem.

Detroit got hit last night and apparently there will be more today. We were blasted last night as well.

The most annoying thing is that when the snow trucks do the roads, they pile up a few extra inches right at driveway entrances. And by morning it's a slushy, icy abomination that I have to use a metal shovel to remove.

Gundam: I'm guessing she'd be at Detroit Metro, if there's a layover? I was there last week lol.

Yeah, no problems in Detroit. I'm guessing her flight is almost to Boston by now. She's got to lead a presentation tomorrow morning in Portsmouth and was kinda nervous that she'd get stuck somewhere along the way.

Also, what is up with that policy?

If there's a plane crash, they minimize the number of employees lost. Uplifting stuff.

I thought this was the case, but decided to maybe display some tact.

No worries. We joke about it since she flies to Boston every 5-6 weeks. Hooray for gigantic insurance companies who don't believe in anything important happening at any other location in the world. Oh well, at least we don't have to move to Boston.

Glanced out the window and saw snow everywhere. I did a double take, thought I was dreaming or something. Everything looked fine merely 30 minutes ago.  :lol

Thankfully it seems the "massive snowstorm" they predicted two days ago is not only A) not massive at all, but B) going to miss most of Boston anyways.

Yep. My wife is in Boston this week for work, so she was quite relieved.
