Just a news story about the weather, right? Interesting enough, they have my sympathy, all that. But big snowstorms are hardly unprecedented in the northern part of the country.

And then you hit this:

Motorists from the Carolinas to Maine were cautioned to stay off the roads, but that was not an option for Josh Clukey, 24, of Eastford, Conn. He ventured out with his pregnant wife began showing signs of labor after midnight. The drive to a hospital in Willimantic, normally 25 minutes, lasted a harrowing hour.

"It was a little scary. It was dark, and the snow was blowing all over the place. I drove really slow," said Clukey, whose son, Ryland James, was born at 8:42 a.m. "There was maybe only about 6 inches on the roads at the time, but the plows hadn't come out yet."


I loved that. You think young Ryland isn't going to have a story to tell some day?
