Gotta Get The Bread & Milk

Flight Aware reports that almost 1200 flights have already been canceled in advance of the blizzard which is due to hit much of the northeast today. Thousands of other flights face “significant delays.”  Via CNN:

As of Wednesday night, New York City was under a winter storm warning, just like many other densely populated areas in seven other states. The city of 8 million people could get 9 inches of snow, sub-zero wind chills and turbulent winds, forecasters said. The Long Island counties of Nassau and Suffolk will be under a blizzard warning from 6 p.m. Thursday until 1 p.m. Friday, thanks to a forecast including 8 to 10 inches of snow, wind chills as low as 10-below zero and sustained winds of at least 35 mph. Farther upstate, the capital city of Albany could get buried under 14 inches of snow, with frigid wind chills of 15 to 25 below zero, the National Weather Service said. By Friday night, Boston should be covered by 5 to 11 inches of snow — with freezing temperatures as low as 3 degrees below zero.
