Stay Indoors Today

In case you haven't heard, the area got hit with a bunch of snow overnight and throughout the day. I had nearly a foot at my office at one point, but it's down a few inches now (still a nasty mess outside). Took me nearly an hour to get to the office this morning. I blame the weather system pictured to the right, from the KTVZ radar, that appears to have an evil face in it over the ocean. Evil-Face Storm (which is what I'm sure Bob Shaw would probably call it) is probably responsible for the snow.
