Ahem. YOU are in the People’s Republic of Taxachusetts.

We are speaking of CONNECTICUT. I suggest you consult Weather.com or similar site.

The Storm will NOT hit Connecticut until AFTER rush hour.

The Storm is only on the EDGES of Connecticut as we speak, according to the latest radar.

There is PLENTY of time to get home in a normal evening commute.

But PajamaGovernor called it hours early ANYWAY. . .

Yep, I do understand that CT can have different weather at different times from MA. The problem is the weather can move in quite quickly, regardless of the predictions of the Weather Service, and when that happens, having thousands of people out on the roads all at the same time can be a huge problem.

If folks got off work at the regular time, and did their usual after work errands, they'd be even later out on the road, thus making it more likely they'd be caught in the storm, and in the way of plows.
