I'd much prefer 3-5" of snow. Going to try getting off my street now. Didn't dare an hour ago.
Heading up the hill to the shuttle in a few minutes. So friggin' tired.
That's nuts, JZ.
For the record, leather-soled slippers are not appropriate snow and ice footwear! I just ran out to put some trash in the barrel, and almost didn't make it.
I really wish people still had to clear their sidewalks. The sidewalk plows either don't clear enough, or they leave terrible ruts from the wheels, which are really hard to walk on. Maybe we could take some unemployed people and pay them to shovel!
We have a new shame and fine system here for people who don't clear their sidewalks, and it seems to be working pretty well!
We so need that here, Jesse. Well, we do for businesses, fines anyway, but it's not enforced.
It's actually not that bad out there. The uce is crunchier than slick and the main roads are just wet.
I don't know if the icy sidewalks are any better--I just said "fuck it" and drove to work.

Yeah, we switched from everyone responsible for their own sidewalk to the city plowing them last year and it has not been a success. For one thing, homeowners were responsible for clearing to the bare pavement, and for some reason the contractors aren't being to held to the same standard.
I'm not usually in favor of shame as a tool for enforcing societal standards, but I can see where it might be useful in minimizing a tragedy of the commons type of problem. I'll have to think about that.
