1 00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:03,200 Speaker 1: Hey there, everybody. 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 2: Welcome to a snowy Monday, February twenty third, this episode 3 00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:12,280 Speaker 2: of Amy and DJ. Yeah, we are snowed in, stuck indoors, 4 00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:15,440 Speaker 2: and it looks treacherous outside. 5 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:17,080 Speaker 1: I heard one person say. 6 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 2: It looks like a fairy tale getting out and around 7 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:25,919 Speaker 2: and certainly anywhere outside of this area is a nightmare. 8 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,240 Speaker 2: And Babe, when's the last time you've been outside? 9 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:32,600 Speaker 3: I don't know. I haven't been out yet today, just 10 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,360 Speaker 3: on the balconies and whatnot. But I want to go out. Look, 11 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,279 Speaker 3: this is Yes, you can look at it that way, 12 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 3: and if you have to be out, it is awful. 13 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,199 Speaker 3: But man, it's a They haven't seen something like this 14 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 3: in ten years in the city. It is gorgeous. It 15 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,080 Speaker 3: causes some problems if you have to be out, but man, 16 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:49,959 Speaker 3: let's take a minute and recognize it is absolutely gorgeous 17 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 3: and probably something in life. Really, my entire life, I've 18 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 3: rarely seen an event like this. 19 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, have you been getting I've been getting texts from 20 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 2: all my family in the South, even my daughter in Brooklyn. 21 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 2: We're comparing notes as to who's got it worse. I 22 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 2: know you were on the phone with the Bean this 23 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 2: morning but have you been hearing from people? People are 24 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,959 Speaker 2: fascinated by this much snow. We've ethan seen tourists on 25 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 2: local TV excited from nice south of France to be 26 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:16,959 Speaker 2: here and experience this. 27 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 3: Not one family, friends don't care. I ain't heard from 28 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 3: a single person checking out, not seriously, not one person 29 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,040 Speaker 3: has reached out and say, hey, how are you guys 30 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 3: doing now? I'm not upset, don't get me wrong. Then 31 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 3: they have some tornadic activity hewn in the south, I 32 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 3: oftentimes don't reach out. So this is just our family done. 33 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 2: Now. Well, look, this is something that people are either 34 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 2: worried about their family or kind of jealous that you're 35 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 2: experiencing this and we are not. 36 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: It is really truly, as. 37 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 2: The meteorologists are putting it, a once in a decade 38 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 2: kind of a storm. Look, initially they were telling us 39 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 2: who might get a couple of inches. Then they went 40 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 2: to twelve or eighteen inches here in New York City. 41 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 2: But already have you seen some of these totals, They're 42 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 2: pretty impressive. Southam In, out of the Hamptons already has 43 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 2: twenty four inches of snow. One of the areas on 44 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 2: Long Islands at twenty seven and a half inches and counting. 45 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 2: I mean, we're not even close to being done with 46 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:10,959 Speaker 2: this yet. 47 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 3: All they sold this. This is going to wrap up in 48 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 3: the next several hours, but it's going to linger for 49 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 3: a long time at least. The problem is it's going 50 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 3: to cause because of airlines getting back up and going. 51 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 3: The airports or I mean the ones here in New 52 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 3: York A essentially shut down right now. And I think 53 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 3: what the weather is not necessarily going to the temper 54 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 3: is not going to rise to a point where this 55 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,920 Speaker 3: is all going to go away, no anytime soon. 56 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 2: It certainly is an in fact right now, let's see, 57 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 2: it is thirty two degrees exactly, but it feels like eleven, 58 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 2: and that is exactly the point of a blizzard. 59 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: You've got crazy, crazy winds out there. I did. 60 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 2: I've had to walk the dog twice now since this 61 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 2: storm began. And last night it was kind of fun. 62 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 2: This morning it was painful. We're talking thirty five, forty, 63 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 2: even sixty mile. 64 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: Per hour wind gusts. 65 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 2: I saw Montalk, which is such a favorite place for 66 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 2: so many people to go summer there had a win 67 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 2: gus of more than eighty miles per hour. So yes, 68 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 2: it's painful to be outside. It's dangerous to be outside, 69 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 2: and that's why schools are closed. It's very rare to 70 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 2: have schools closed in New York, and especially when they 71 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 2: don't even have to have a learning day. They just 72 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 2: get to have a free day on a day like 73 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 2: this because they just it's just that bad. 74 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, kids have been out of school for a week 75 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 3: and a half plus at this point because winter break 76 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:28,519 Speaker 3: was for the folks up here in the Northeast. So 77 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 3: today was supposed to be their first day back from 78 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 3: last week being off and they got an extra day. 79 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 3: And look, I give them, you know, we wanted to 80 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 3: give the Momdani administration credit, but I don't know if 81 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 3: they just couldn't get it together quickly enough because the 82 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 3: kids weren't in school. Usually we know something's coming and 83 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 3: they can give the kids to heads up the day before, 84 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 3: Hey we're going to move to online instruction. But they 85 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 3: were out all week, so they couldn't scramble and get 86 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 3: it together. So this is really rare in New York 87 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 3: to get a snow day after the pandemic, like a 88 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 3: true snow day. Usually they're online in their rooms and 89 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 3: they hate it. They complain the whole time. 90 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: Yes, I was actually listening. 91 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 2: You had Sabine on speaker when you told her she 92 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 2: didn't have to go to school. She was genuinely excited, 93 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 2: because yes, that doesn't happen already. New York City schools 94 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 2: are in school until basically the fourth of July as 95 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 2: it is, so they don't want to extend the school 96 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 2: You're only in extreme circumstances, and this certainly is one. 97 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 2: So we had a travel band here in New York City, 98 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 2: but in surrounding areas they've extended it beyond that noon 99 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 2: travel band deadline that they had given it. Now it's 100 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,839 Speaker 2: four pm in most of New Jersey Westchester, and when 101 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 2: I look outside, the only people icee outside are either 102 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 2: people who are working clearing the streets or people walking 103 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 2: their dogs. But on the news, the local news we've 104 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 2: been watching, I've even seen people cross country skiing, like 105 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 2: maybe the Olympics inspired them, But clearly that is the 106 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 2: easiest way to get around. 107 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 3: The city right now, So it's easy. It's in that regard. 108 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,839 Speaker 3: I mean folks, plenty of folks in this city got skis, 109 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 3: they got snowboards, and they know every time they have 110 00:04:58,279 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 3: to pack up they have to go drive a couple 111 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 3: hours away and have to pay for a pass and 112 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 3: you can walk outside throw your skis on. That's kind 113 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 3: of cool. So I guess, yes, it is hell. It's 114 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 3: going to cause people problems, pain, and oftentimes we even 115 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 3: see I mean injuries and unfortunately deaths associated with it. 116 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 3: Hopefully I haven't seen anything yet. 117 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 2: No, the only headline I saw. Look, it looks as 118 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 2: though folks are heating the warning. And truly, when you 119 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 2: look outside, nobody wants to go out on this. Maybe 120 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 2: for a little bit to say you did to get 121 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 2: a few selfies or a few shots of yourself in 122 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 2: the snow. 123 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest, I did do that. 124 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 2: But more than twenty trees have already fallen in the 125 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,239 Speaker 2: New York area. They said five of them have fallen 126 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 2: on vehicles and buildings. But so far there aren't any 127 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 2: reports of injuries, thank goodness. But you know it's bad 128 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 2: in New York City when a they close the schools 129 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 2: and b when you have the mayor asking New Yorkers 130 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 2: not to order delivery or take out. This is exactly 131 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 2: and precisely the kind of whether people don't want to 132 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 2: go out in Oh, yes, they want to order in door. 133 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 2: Dash suspended all services last night, So you know it's 134 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 2: serious when people can't get things delivered to their door. 135 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 3: You can't you look outside. If you look outside and 136 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 3: think you're gonna get food delivered by a guy riding 137 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 3: a bike, you're out of your mind. So and really 138 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 3: some of the they've banned. You're not supposed to have 139 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 3: e bikes, bicycles, motorcycles, scooters. They've banned all that traffic. 140 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 3: So it's not supposed to be out there. I assume 141 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 3: robe you didn't see a single person with any mode 142 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 3: of transportation when you were outside. But but no, of 143 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,599 Speaker 3: course you're not. We stocked up here. We got stuff. 144 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 3: Anybody needs something swing by. We got food, we prepared. 145 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,159 Speaker 3: We went and got sardines and bottled water. You know, 146 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 3: we're those crazy people because we're from the South. We 147 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 3: prepare our whole livees right, something's going down. So no, 148 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 3: it's it is a good day to take a beat. 149 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 3: And I don't know, I've I've had a rough morning, 150 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 3: but for whatever reason, I've taken in and appreciated and 151 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 3: finding a positive in the snowstorm for some reason. 152 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 2: No, it it is simply gorgeous it looks like something 153 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 2: out of a movie. It looks like it's and it's 154 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,119 Speaker 2: just it's unending. It's been going on since it's started 155 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 2: snowing at noon yesterday, guys, noon on Sunday, and it 156 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 2: was beautiful and I was taking pictures, and then by 157 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 2: the evening the winds kicked up, and now all day 158 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 2: long it has just been brutal. And so we've had 159 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 2: flight cancelations as you might imagine, up and down the 160 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 2: Eastern Seaboard. You don't even have to live in New 161 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 2: England or along the East Coast to be affected by 162 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 2: this storm. 163 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: This is crazy. 164 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 2: Five thousand plus flights and counting have already been canceled 165 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 2: today along the Eastern Seaboard. And you gave the percentages 166 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 2: in the morning run, and I went to go check 167 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 2: they're the same. Eighty nine percent of flights at JFK canceled, 168 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 2: ninety eight percent of flights at LaGuardia canceled, ninety two percent. 169 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 2: Of flights in Newark canceled, ninety two percent in Boston canceled, 170 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 2: eighty two percent in Philly canceled. 171 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: Bottom line, you aren't getting out of here, and. 172 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 2: A lot of tourists are kind of leaning into the 173 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 2: concept of, Hey, I'm stuck here, I might as well 174 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 2: try and take in this weather that doesn't happen very often. 175 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 2: As long as people are careful, you can find a 176 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 2: way to safely enjoy it. 177 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: We've seen some folks starting to sled. 178 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 2: The winds are starting to die down, but we've got 179 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 2: blizzard warnings at least according to my phone until six 180 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 2: pm tonight. 181 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 3: Uh yeah, that's been the dynamic all night and all 182 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 3: day really quite literally up into this moment. This is 183 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 3: the first time I've looked out the windows since last 184 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 3: night and the snow is not literally going sideways. And 185 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 3: I'm just not talking about I mean, it's going out 186 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 3: an angle. You could tell wind is blowing now. But 187 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 3: until this moment, I have looked outside and the wind 188 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 3: has been going horizontal to the ground. That is, you know, 189 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 3: I posted a video about it, so I'm not just 190 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,719 Speaker 3: making this up. So the wind has been the part 191 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 3: that's It's been wild to watch, but it's maybe calming 192 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:48,839 Speaker 3: down a little bit. 193 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: Yes, And even for hardy New Yorkers. 194 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,719 Speaker 2: Look, we are used to dealing with wicked weather that 195 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 2: pops up and sometimes unexpectedly, And look, I think a 196 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 2: lot of us sometimes get jaded because we hear a 197 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 2: big storm's coming and then only a couple inches fall. 198 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 2: I was shocked yesterday at the grocery store. I went 199 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 2: to go pick up a few extra things. The store 200 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 2: shelves were stocked, and I didn't know if that was 201 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 2: a credit I should give to Christiti's, the local supermarket, 202 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 2: or if people were not believing that it was going 203 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 2: to be that bad. And that could be a little 204 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 2: bit of both. But unfortunately they were hit with a 205 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 2: wild surprise when they couldn't order toor dash to their 206 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 2: homes last night. 207 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 3: But y, we only raid grocery stores during pandemics. 208 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 1: You know what, that's a good point. 209 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 3: This is a storm would be our and you know what, 210 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 3: they've been telling us, it's going to be a day 211 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 3: or two and we should be okay. But I mean 212 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 3: they're holding off and waiting to decide if schools are 213 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 3: open tomorrow. Businesses certainly want to be open. I think 214 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 3: we're kind of preparing to go back to business as 215 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 3: usual for the most part. Tomorrow might be a little 216 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,079 Speaker 3: bit of a delay. But I mean New York, we okay, 217 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 3: hit us, when can we get back to business? 218 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 2: Yeah? 219 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: Well, you just teed me right up. 220 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 2: So when we come back, we're going to talk about 221 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 2: how long before flights get back to normal New York 222 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 2: City and all Boston and Philadelphia, all these major cities 223 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 2: that impact so much of the world. When are we 224 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 2: all going to be able to dig out and dare 225 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 2: I even say melt all of this snow. Welcome back 226 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 2: everyone to Amy and TJ, where we are snowed in 227 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 2: and hunkered down as so many forty million people trying 228 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 2: to get my head around under blizzard warnings over the 229 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 2: past twenty four hours. That is remarkable, the size of 230 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 2: the storm, how slow this storm is moving, and how 231 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 2: powerful it is churning powerfully it's churning. This is one 232 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 2: for the record books. People will be talking about this 233 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 2: storm for years to come. Uh. 234 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's been a while. I don't know what the 235 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 3: totals will be. I guess our record four blizzards and 236 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 3: snowfall or around twenty seven, twenty six, twenty five to 237 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 3: twenty four inches and things like that. And this stuff 238 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,200 Speaker 3: keeps coming. We could start knocking on that door in 239 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 3: Central Park. 240 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, we are certainly flirting with record setting numbers and 241 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 2: we're starting we can look up at the local and 242 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 2: just see some of the blizzard totals. They have a scroll, 243 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,599 Speaker 2: but we're looking at some of these places out on 244 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 2: Long Island already at twenty eight point two inches and counting. 245 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 2: And look, if we keep getting snow for the next 246 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 2: five six hours, maybe not the two to three inches 247 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 2: an hour rate that we've been seeing, you are seeing 248 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 2: historic snowfall here. And look it's it's stopped blowing horizontally bay, 249 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 2: but it's still diagonal and it's still coming down hard. 250 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 2: These are big, fat, fluffy flakes that are going to 251 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 2: create lots of inches. So this is going to be 252 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 2: fascinating to see just how much we end up getting 253 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 2: with snow totals. But the problem is the weather. Look, 254 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 2: we have had a frigid winter, so many of you 255 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 2: know this already. But tomorrow we don't get a buffreezing 256 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 2: I believe our high between twenty eight and thirty whatever 257 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 2: you look at, whatever weather service you're looking at, but 258 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 2: it's going to start out at fifteen degrees. It is 259 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 2: going to be treacherous getting out and about even tomorrow. 260 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 2: I imagine it's going to be tough for them to 261 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 2: make that call on schools. But if you're trying to 262 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,319 Speaker 2: get out of here or trying to get into or 263 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 2: out of New York City, all ready for tomorrow, already 264 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 2: checked out the major airports, Already like forty three percent 265 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,319 Speaker 2: of flights are canceled at most of the airports. That's 266 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,319 Speaker 2: about the average forty five forty three percent. So it's 267 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 2: going to look like Wednesday perhaps before people are going 268 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 2: to be able to start getting out of here and 269 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 2: traveling through here. However, did you hear we're supposed to 270 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 2: get another little bout of snow on Wednesday? 271 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, it won't be anything like this, So, I mean, 272 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 3: I don't know. We Yeah, we've been through plenty here 273 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 3: in New York. It seemed like these weather events have 274 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 3: become more extreme. It seems like they've become more frequent. 275 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 3: So yeah, we talk about global warming when it comes 276 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 3: to I guess heat and it's warmer than it needs 277 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 3: to be. But they say these things have an impact 278 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 3: on weather year round. I am amazed. It seems like 279 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 3: we have had. I mean, we just came out of 280 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,079 Speaker 3: that deep historic freeze. We never had that many straight 281 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 3: days in New York of below freezing temperatures. So I 282 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 3: don't know what's going on. Maybe we're just having a 283 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 3: rough season, rough winter, but this is it's a little 284 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 3: scary how extreme things are getting with weather. Weather is 285 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 3: making me nervous these. 286 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 2: Days, agreed. Yes, I don't recall too many days. And 287 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 2: we've lived in Manhattan, both of us for more than 288 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 2: two decades, so we have perspective. We've lived through some 289 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 2: major storms. I don't ever remember it being this cold 290 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 2: for this long, where you have windshels of negative fourteen, 291 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 2: where you are screaming to get into uber and then 292 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 2: you couple that now with this historic snowfall, and it 293 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 2: certainly looks like it's going to be Yes, I'm bracing 294 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 2: for what March is even going to look like at 295 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 2: this point. 296 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,439 Speaker 1: And that's kind of a fair fear to have at 297 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: this point. 298 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 2: But we just guess we wanted to get on to 299 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 2: let TJ's family know proof of life. We're okay, we're fine, 300 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 2: aren't curious, and we're taking videos. Maybe you can send 301 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 2: them some and they'll feel like they're a part of it. 302 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 3: Oh what, they haven't even asked. They don't know where 303 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 3: we are in the world. Anyway. We just got back 304 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 3: from all over the place, so they don't even think 305 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 3: we're in New York. Problem. 306 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 2: Well, we certainly hope wherever you are that you are 307 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 2: staying warm and dry, and. 308 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: Hopefully you don't have any travel. 309 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 2: Plans to the East Coast at least over. 310 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: The next couple of days. 311 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 2: And if you do, well, I hope you can laugh 312 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 2: and realize that this is the one thing. 313 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 1: There are a few things in this world we cannot change, 314 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 1: and among them is the weather. But thank you as 315 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: always for listening to us.
