I LOVE that storm prep in New England includes the phrase "I went to the packie..."

I think I've heard that phrase about 20 times today!! :)

It's not looking good for us here... schools already canceled for us tomorrow (yeah!!) This should be interesting...

Good luck all. Take care. Stay safe.

Oh, got it! The liquor store. I never heard that word before. Isn't it interesting the different expressions that come up from far-flung regions of the country?

Going to the packie would make a storm like that easier to handle. Stay warm.

I have lived in blizzard country and major snow country. I am sure you know how to take of yourselves but my best wishes for your safety and comfort and that it doesn't last too long.

At least it's not displayed as feet!
And I kinda get what the phrase means, after the explanation. Maybe I should start using it here to see who gets it.
