Try getting down this driveway (without breaking a hip) and getting to an ice encased car.
NYC Schools are open.
Good luck…

An ice dam formed at the edge of the porch roof; the leaders and gutters are frozen and water is pouring in between the roof and the gutter.

reply bogieface wrote on Feb 2, ’11 open?? thats kind of dumb considering the conditions…..ice here too and not so bad as that but we are all shut down for now as a result…we don’t have this kind of weather often so we just usually wait it out…be careful out there!!

reply sanssouciblogs wrote on Feb 2, ’11 Thanks, Sous. The color is from the street lights, I guess they throw a yellow cast I don’t notice otherwise.

reply sanssouciblogs wrote on Feb 2, ’11 Yes, open. We’ve already had a snow day or tow so rather than lose state aid, I guess the mayor thinks he can sacrifice a few lives.

reply opossumd wrote on Feb 3, ’11 The pictures are attractive, but the reality is alarming: avoid getting out until the ice melts if you can. Thinking of you. Dani xxx

reply sanssouciblogs wrote on Feb 8, ’11 It was around forever! It finally started melting over the last few days. I got the driveway shoveled out after weeks! Now it’s getting cold again and may snow later in the week. We’ve had about 9 major storms.

reply sanssouciblogs wrote on Feb 8, ’11 Yes. Must be!
