Another snow upset. I thought we would at least get 2" but the temperatures are just too warm. An inch has already fallen but only looks like a dusting because of the melting; once it hits the concrete, roads, dirt, it melts.

I've seen that list before. The ones I found strange/funny were "Shelter in Place Warning", "Nuclear Power Plant Warning" and "Law Enforcement Warning", I mean, just imagine seeing those on your Intellistar and being narrated!

Let go Jets! Super Bowl 47!
They've made it to only one Super Bowl and won it.

I'd just like to bring up another point on how criticized people are getting because they're New York fans?!?! I'm not a Giant fan, there are times when I hate the Giants, but that doesn't mean I can't root for them because I'm not a fan. WTH?

Very Fluky game just like 2008, wasn't surprised the Refs would give all the good calls to the Giants 

Yep, just like that pass that was supposed to be pass interference against the Pats but the refs didn't call it. I wouldn't blame the game on the Refs.  A game is a game.

Only time there was something like this at this late (or perhaps early?) time was back in 93 with the superstorm. 

Don't forget the Blizzard of 2006. Though it is still disputed whether or not it was a subtropical storm.
