  1. My college life in 1973: Living in an eight by twenty-four camper in the Hillside Trailer Park outside State College, and driving a large, over-powered Dodge Coronet. No one gets nostalgic about steering rear-wheel-drive cars in the snow. #olddays #oldendays #twentiethcentury #blizzard #snow #snowstorm #snowstorms #statecollege #pennstate #dodge #plymouth #hillsidetrailerpark #trailerpark #trailerparks #affordablehousing #nomoreaffordablehousing #affordablehousinginstatecollege

  2. To shovel, or not to shovel — that is the question:
    Whether 'tis nobler in the back to suffer
    The slips and tumbles of outrageous winter,
    Or to take arms against a driveway of snow
    And by shoveling, clear it. To wait — to melt,
    No more; and by a melt to say we end
    The aching lumbar and the thousand frozen shocks
    That driveways are heir to: 'tis a consummation
    Devoutly to be wish'd. To wait, to melt;
    To melt, perchance by Tuesday — ay, there's the rub:
    For in that wait, what neighbors might then come
    When we have shuffled past in our pajamas,
    Must give us pause. There's the embarrassment
    That makes a spectacle of so long a driveway.
    For who would bear the scrape and grunt of toil,
    The frozen shovel, the numb and mittened hands,
    The pangs of a pulled muscle, the cold's delay,
    The insolence of a second storm on Thursday,
    And the sneers of the neighbor who snowblows in minutes,
    When he himself might simply wait it out
    With a warm cup of coffee? Who would labor,
    To huff and puff beneath a leaden sky,
    But that the dread of something — say, the mailman,
    Or a mother-in-law who visits unannounced —
    Puzzles the will,
    And makes us rather bear the snow we have
    Than explain to others why we didn't shovel?
    Thus laziness doth make philosophers of us all,
    And thus the noble urge to go outside
    Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of forecast,
    And the Weather app, of great import and promise,
    With this regard doth send us back to bed
    And lose the name of action.

  3. Massive #snowstorm to bury areas from #OklahomaCity to #NewYorkCity, #Boston

    In what is likely to be the biggest winter storms in years for such a broad area of the U.S., heavy snow is forecast from the eastern slopes of the Rockies to the coastal Northeast. Travel shutdowns are anticipated.

    By Alex Sosnowski, AccuWeather senior meteorologist

    Published Jan 22, 2026

    "Enough snow to shovel and plow is forecast to spread from New Mexico and Colorado on Friday to Massachusetts and Maine by Sunday, impacting over 200 million people. It could be the biggest snowstorm in years with a large area having the potential to receive 6 to 12 inches of snow, with accumulations reaching 24-30 inches in the hardest-hit areas.

    " 'It is rare that storms combine this much snow, ice and bitter cold over such a large area — a widespread travel-halting winter storm will stall daily life for days in large portions of the central and eastern U.S.,' AccuWeather Senior Vice President Evan Myers said."
