Yep. Amtrak just forced me to abandon my bike trip to Yorktown and Jamestown tomorrow  :(

Right after I finally convinced the rental guy this was something you should let a tourist do during a snow storm.

How did Amtrak do that?

Cancelled my evening train back to DC, the only alternative being the 9 am service.

Mal, to complete your American snowstorm experience, panic buy bead and milk.

If you are a bit snobby, add wine to the list.

Hehe, speaking of that. I did my food shopping today, about 7am, my usual shopping day/time. It was more crowded than usual which also happened the last time we had a storm coming mid week. Hmm, I didn't need milk and I baked bread Monday so didn't need that either.  :D

We got a bunch of snow last night, so much that it snapped two huge branches off of one of my magnolias. :mad:
