I know these are frowned upon, but sometimes there's no other way.

If I remember, a few years ago you said your brother and his family were in New York?

Just posting this to let you know I hope they will all be OK in this nasty, nasty weather.

Widespread accumulations of 1 to 2 feet likely in New England and eastern Long Island, with some areas picking up to 3 feet. Snow drifts will be even higher.
Blizzard or near-blizzard conditions will make travel dangerous and, in some areas, impossible.

I have a friend in NYC. I contacted him and he's ok. I think the other NE states have been getting it much worse.
