Fridays with John: When weather matters.

Weather reports don't catch my attention too often, except in maybe extremes. Until Liz said it was supposed to snow last night, I had no idea it was going to happen. I was more concerned with the burgers I was eating and a debate in Texas.

Now that the snow has fallen, it's pretty distracting. I watched the closed school reports on the news this morning with Snow Day envy. I keep checking how much has fallen. And, a new first, I've taken to measuring the accumulation in our backyard. I also checked with my boss, it doesn't look like we'll be closing early.
