Gee..! I wonder where all those thousands of cars are going to park during the storm.
I guess if you do not have a driveway you will need to get a room for a few days at a hotel or motel. Duh..?
No, wait! There is “money” to be made here by giving out tickets, Never mind.

Gee, they can quickly announce a pre-emptive snow emergency but are virtually the only district in the state to not say yet if schools are closed?
