in the food court at the Danbury Fair Mall. I don't think people realize what's going on outside, snowfall rates of 1"+/hr and the roads are already snow-covered. hundreds of people just mozying around, shopping and eating. This could cause extreme traffic and accident issues in the coming hours...

People are clueless.

This is so not fair. You guys would get a historic storm back home the same year that I move to western NY for school...

My family is reporting that back in Morris County, NJ the power is out all over town (they were going to get lunch, and had to turn back). Absolutely insane.
