I also think the powers that be are over-reacting. I can see shutting the subways down, but that far ahead seems absurd. Although this way we can plan, and it prevents people going somewhere away from home and getting stuck. Still...
However, the subway closing meant the academy officially decided today that no one will come in to work tomorrow, so I am spared last-minute phone calls, dithering, and waking early when it turns out I don't have to.
When told the plan, I said that I'd spend the time making sure nothing is on the floor in the basement in case it floods. Also, I'll put the gazing ball and lawn chairs in the enclosed porch.
The storm rations I requested that Supergee get tomorrow morning are extra soda from CVS, an extra bag of broccoli florets, and extra tofu and blueberries for my standard brekkie.
