I was awake around 4am when this started up. Todays garbage day and every can that was out was knocked over and all the trash was slamming into cars. Fun to watch but not while my house was rocking back and forth, which it still is. I wish I could stay in bed all day but I have to walk over to school in a while ugh ---

So at home in greece there was crazy wind followed by crazy lack effect snow a blowin. Probably 3 inches worth total, but drifting like mad. Once I got south of greece it cleared up but was still windy as shit, and the trusty buick was getting blown around quite a bit. Wind was rather strong heading north So i was getting a really big headwind.
