It begins
I awoke this morning to news that Buffalo had recieved two feet of snow and that interstate 90 had been closed.....due to leave at 10:00am. Lulu is on my lap as I type away while Eliza is packing upstairs. http://www.cnn.com/2006/WEATHER/10/14/october.snow.ap/index.html

At approximately 6:10 a.m. on Friday, October 13, 2006, the Authority announced that a 100-mile section of the Thruway mainline from Interchange 46 (Rochester, Corning) to Interchange 59 (Dunkirk) was closed eastbound/westbound due to heavy lake effect snow conditions.
