These stories were picked off of the Drudge Report http://www.drudgereport.com/ a few minutes ago. Here in upstate NY we really haven't felt the worst of it yet as it's now a balmy +12F but tonight predicted to -10 to -15F, though a bit further North, predicted to be -20/-30. I'm really looking forward to my trip to Florida in a couple weeks and cavorting in the sun (hopefully - with my normal weather related run of luck, there will be that once-in-a-lifetime blizzard in Orlando)
