    My daughter has a 5:30am flight Friday morning with her soccer team to Houston for a huge national tournament. It will be their first tourney since down there LAST February! If they get stuck here and can't go they will be SO bummed. Hope they get out safe.

    Hey @THE HCP any word on how bad the weather will have to be for the Blazer came to be cancelled?

    I know there aren't any fans but the safety of the home team is a concern.

    Ya, in the past it's been about the safety of the fans. I haven't heard anything about these next two nights though. My boss said it would take a lot to cancel either of these games.

    We don't get snow these days.
    When I was in grade school and high school schools wouldn't close unless we got 6 inches. Cars were not able to negotiate snow nearly as good as they can today.We usually got from 4 inches to 8 inches every winter. Now, if we get a light dusting everything grinds to a halt.
