Winter Events

The Winter Olympics in Turin started Friday with the spectacular opening ceremonies.

Meanwhile, the unofficial snow shoveling event could involve millions of participants on Sunday. The venue, far from Turin, is the Middle Atlantic and New England states, where a 'nor'easter' is moving up the coast overnight. Forecasts tend to vary, but I'm hearing 5-8" here in the DC Area with more further up the coast, including blizzard conditions in parts of New York and New England.

UPDATE SUNDAY AM: Well, we got a little more, most places in the area getting well over 10", but the snow has stopped here, and radar shows the storm pulling away. Soon time to go and begin to dig out.
