Snow, Sure. Blizzard? Not Really Here, Yet

It's snowing here, though not accumulating much yet, partly because the wind is gusty and blowing things around. It won't be ending any time soon, though. Here's what the weather map looks like right now:

For that matter, if you zoom out, you can see how big the storm really is:

And according to WBZ via the Globe, worse is heading right for us:

So, snug inside is the way to go. May it remain snug: I'm hoping the power stays on, for comfort and entertainment and because the dishwasher is running. (I also did three loads of laundry earlier: love a chance to get a jump on weekend chores!)

The Bruins game tomorrow was supposed to be a matinee, but the 1PM start was pushed back to 7PM. Both teams* are in town, so that's good, but the storm isn't supposed to be over by then, so they're erring on the side of safety. For which I can't blame them, I suppose.
*Don't you bet the Lightning are thrilled to be here in time for the storm? Bet they'd rather be in Tampa!

In other hockey news, the Providence Bruins have signed on to the You Can Play project. On the serious side, I think it's great that they're doing this, working on making hockey teams a better place for gay players. As they say, "If you can play, you can play."

On the humorous side? It's a good thing that "If you can read off a cue card without looking like you're reading off a cue card" isn't part of the pledge.

Bonus points for a couple of the guys who said "You can play" in languages other than English--at least, I assume that's what they were saying.

Weather updates tomorrow, power permitting. Stay safe out there!
