So glad my plans to make Pittsburgh my permenant home were completely flushed down the drain. I caught some of that lovely sideways sliding car action on the news, and remembered how fun last winter was when I was there. My heart goes out to all of you that have have to deal with this.
Yet another reason I'm happy to be back in Los Angeles!
I did really like Pittsburgh though.

We just use these.

Anytime requiring machinery for snow removal they just shut down everything and hunker down. You could probably cross country ski up and down I-70 and not be bothered by traffic.
