Why aren't we hearing from Mayor Bloomberg on the hour, every hour...? Is he in Bermuda? Just joking...he couldn't get out to Bermuda after yesterday's press conference.
From Notify NYC:
10:30 AM today: The Long Island Railroad, Metro-North and the Staten Island Railway are suspended due to the snow. Subways and buses are experiencing major delays. Visit www.mta.info for the latest updates.
12/27/10 at 9:15 AM. The New York City Department of Transportation has suspended all parking meter regulations for Monday, December 27th. The NYPD will not be issuing parking meter tickets today.
I am sure glad I was not stuck on the A Train for 6 hours because I always feel pregnant with twins. I do feel very sorry for all the people stuck on this train when the power was lost. The MTA is just a mess including parts that are so dilapidated with pipes bandaged like wounds, I have seen leaks and puddles on sunny days. (Have video footage on YouTube.) Note: Reminder the SAIC MTA deal for 110 million was put to death and thank goodness based on corrupt over rides by SAIC for hundreds of millions for CityTime. Mysterious how the MTA would not discuss why they were go with SAIC after their massive budget over rides...hmmm.
The winds and the blizzard inspired many to stay home but some people including me went out to do some errands. If my knees were not shot I would have gone for a run like I have all my life living in NYC which now totals 27 years. My girlfriend (for gay bashing homophobes that means friend) took her beautiful fluffy dog out for a walk and the snow was up to her head -- the beautiful dog with winter coat LOVED it!
Stay warm stay tuned....
