Man, we're getting hammered with snow here in Buffalo
Considering that a large swatch of the thruway is closed down, I am dreading the commute home.

1. Request to go home now!
I don't know where you work, but go now if you can. In fact, businesses that can, should be responsible to make this decision.

3. 3:00 dismissal, but I will go after a meeting ends between 3:30 and 4:00
Been awhile since Buffalo has been hit with this kind of storm. The Southtowns (Southern suburbs) are exepecting up to 3 feet of snow between yesterday and this evening.

4. Have a safe passage home
People who get snow all the time are prepared for it, tires, driving skills and stuff, it is the people who only have to deal with it occasionally that can make things dangerous. Good luck, make sure your phone is charged up and you have enough gas.

5. I'm just a hop down the lakeshore from you -in Cleveland- and there's nary a snowflake in the sky.
Buffalonians must be made of strong stuff.
