Snowday in Philadelphia...Post a Coin

Well, here we are at the end of the winter season and Philly is getting its FIRST significant snow event. Have about 4 inches on the ground with the forecast for freezing rain and sleet this afternoon. In the big city people tend to lose their minds when any snow falls and traffic comes to gridlock. Shuttin' it down today and gonna work from home...and shovel for the first time.image

People from the midwest and Chicagoland don't laugh too hard...image

Post a white or silver coin for the East Coast snow!!!

    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



    The name is LEE!

    Wish I had a snow day...I'm at work in Center City Philadelphia! 5 inches or so in Chestnut Hill when I left this morning.


    Edited to add: this is NOTHING. I grew up in Syracuse image

    I live in Delaware (was tricked into moving there by a previous employer), but I'm from Wisconsin, and visited there last week. Ah.... zero degrees (yes, Fahrenheit)... multiple layers of snow two feet deep... now THAT's the winter of my youth.

    But here's a coin for folks that had it more crazy rough than fun rough:

    I don't have a coin to post right now...but just wanted to say that I was in Philadelphia most of this week on business and had intended to stay through today. Good thing I listened to a few of the locals and flew out yesterday afternoon.

    Guess it should be a white-ish coin?

  • Snow has now changed over to freezing rain...great coins posted. Let's keep it going...

    Very happy that I do not have to deal with CC traffic on Market St. and the Vine Street Expwy. Streets were bad this AM although I think that the road crews now have a handle on the situation.

    Sometimes I miss Philly and sometimes I don't. That perpetual dirty curb slush a week after a good snow storm is not missed. Keep warm!

    These 2 coins below would represent all those folks with new SUV's in the snow for the first time doing 70 mph... thinking they are invincible. image
