IIRC the call is now a collaborative decision by the local State Police and whoever manages the thruway authority locally. There was a big uproar about it at the time, because Albany wasn’t responsive to request to close. ---

with the number of people who make 6 figures working for the thruway, you’d think they could handle some of the basic obvious decisions. ---

This storm has killed more people than “assault weapons”. Time to ban snow under the safe act. ---

Anyone have an update from the Orchard Park area? Mother in law’s power is out and she lives alone, we’re pretty worried about her. Anything we/she can do? Biggest problem is still that plows pushed a 6-7 foot (at least) snow pile in front of her driveway. She has a snowblower, but not a chance she’ll get out of the driveway without help. Are emergency services available? It’s too cold for her to be spending the night without power. If someone from this site goes and helps dig her out, I will buy you dinner and drinks later this winter when i visit. This was her house from the road yesterday: ![http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll126/boardjnky4/2014-11-19_zpse9174c9e.jpg](http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll126/boardjnky4/2014-11-19_zpse9174c9e.jpg) ---
