North Florida is not really Florida. It's really South of South Georgia. We just let them call themselves Florida so they won't cry all the time. It was getting embarrassing.

Rest assured, those of us above the Mason-Dixon line don't care what you call yourselves.

[Sir Slash]

We were thinking of calling ourselves, "Not Maine" for awhile but we already had North Florida crying so.....

You already take most of our retirees and a good number of the Canadians. We are in your debt.

^Feel free to keep them, too. Enjoy!

No, they only come here to tell us how much cheaper and better made things are 'back home'. And to act as mobile driving Speed Bumps so traffic flows more sloooooowly. Besides I have a theory that when the temps here hits 95 degrees, Yankees spontaneously self combust.

Snow day?  SNOW DAY???!!

I'm seeing a delayed start that turns into a SNOOOOOOW DAAAAAYYYY!!!11!!

... A burst of accumulating snow along with a flash freeze to
impact the Friday morning rush hour...

Rain is expected to develop this evening and then change to snow
across western MA and northwest CT between 10 PM and 2
am... occurring earliest in the high terrain. The rain will then
change to snow between 3 and 5 am across eastern Massachusetts and
Rhode Island.

The snow may fall moderate to heavy for a short time... resulting
in a quick 1 to 2 inches of snow along with poor visibility.
There is a low risk for some 3 to 4 inch snow amounts if the rain
changes to snow earlier than expected. In addition... temperatures
will be falling into the 20s so a flash freeze will combined with
accumulating snow to result in hazardous travel on roadways.

Unfortunately... this burst of snow along with the flash freeze
will coincide with part of the Friday morning rush hour. Motorists
should be prepared for hazardous travel. The snow will come to an
end by 8 am across western MA and northern CT and by 10 am across
eastern MA and RI... but temperatures will be falling into the 20s.

^ Sounds like you need a SNOW DAY!!   

[Toonces]

I'm calling it now.  Essential personnel only at work, snow day for kids.

The bad part is that my son will still end up having practice, so I'll still have to get in the car and drive but at least it will be in the late afternoon.

Well, maybe not...I'm not sure actually.
