Probably just going to end up being played up more than we will actually get, as usual.

[x648eng119 2]

I gotta admit - this one i'm actually looking foward to. For once. I'm scheduled to work my "b" job at Westchester EMS, so it should be fun in the snow. A change of pace from the typical day of EMS transports.

LET IT SNOW!!!

[HFD750 6]

I hate the snow. I guess I'll be plowing all night and day. Even though it's OT I still hate it. I work for the DPW in Harrison. Were ready to rock and roll, We'll some of us anyway. Stay safe.

[CAM502 6]

Bring it on....the more snow the better the sking.

[27east 19]

this storm had better not bring any mixing rain...I'm still upset over the lack of snow early this week and this weekend

[CAM502 6]

I was really dissapointed to wake up to nothing the other day...We need a good blizzard!!

[CAM502 6]

0519-The chains are on and the snow is falling. Another day in paradise.

[Guest]

Looks like 5-6" in the Pelhams.....

[Remember585 815]

Man, I wish I had 5-6"......wait, we're talking about snow?! Never mind.

[JohnnyOV 2]

Bring it on....the more snow the better the sking.

we got pounded with snow in peekskill, I went outside and got a 10" snow reading. and I had no school so I was happy.

All in all, i gotta say i enjoyed this one. Yeah, it took me an hour and a half to drive from Croton to Mt Kisco, and an hour from there to White Plains, but I made it there safe, which is what counts.

Haha - I even got into a snowball fight with two other WEMS crews, and a Transcare Medic in the WP ER bay. It was great until one of the emt whimped out and retreated to his ambulance. He wishes to remain anomaly...I mean anonymous . I have to say, a good time was had by all.
