Back to Reality, Nor'easter Hits Long Island

back to reality, Nor'easter hits Long Island
this is what it looked like outside earlier today. by 5:45 pm large wet snowflakes mixed with sleet shut down the long island expressway (a major thoroughfare used by commuters) - perfect timing for rush hour. later penn station was closed and then finally reopening by 8pm tonight. for the last two hours I have been hearing snow plows & fire sirens. 
what about all of our displaced neighbors who have no homes, no schools & no workplace? I am afraid they will be more devastated because of this storm. yet if you follow the news there are many people from all over this great country helping those affected by sandy. thank you great country.
I found this red cross link today that lists places including some on long island for those who need food & other services. please pass it on to those in need.
also, if you are so inclined please repeat after me, dear lord, please make this storm go away, and please restore those who do not have power, amen.
