1. Tunnels are the safest place to be during a winter storm
Or so I've heard.

6. My b-day is Sun.
I don't ever remember having snow before my b-day. I remember some nice warm days and some cold autumn days, but snow? Absolutely not. This year's weather is bizarre. It doesn't look like we're going to escape this one. We planned a trip to the shore but we may have to get out the snowblower before we leave. Unbelievable.

14. When I was a kid in the 70s, I remember a few snowy halloweens and most
Novembers seemed snowy too. This is more in line with the way things were, I guess.

10. Woke up to snow on the ground today...in Connecticut!
They told us there might be snow in the Berkshires last night, but Connecticut? Yikes. It was snowing here by 8 pm.

21. Literally. Had to go out and warm up/de-ice the car this morning.
Insane weather for October, and apparently it's about to get much worse tomorrow.

20. Can they call it a winter storm in October?
Wonder what the AP Stylebook says about that?
