I fly on Saturday and I'm petrified of what's going on outside. I don't want to be suspended in the air with all this wind and rain!! :blink:

Who else is flying soon? When are you booked for? My weather actually says there's only a 10% chance of rain, although it's barely going to be above freezing so I'm worried it might snow.

Ready for my grand ol' timeline? Alrighty then!

I think you'll be a-okay!

I'm getting a little nervous about our flight out at the beginning of February. I keep telling GH as long as we make it into Boston okay I'll rent a car and barrel on through to Buffalo!! It's the right time of year (end of Jan beginning of Feb) for everything to go belly-up weather wise in the Buff. If we can just make it in on the 2nd, I don't care if all hell breaks loose on the 3rd (at least my folks have a generator) :) :)

So are you pretty much all packed and ready to go?? x

I'll be thinking of you, I'm sure it will be ok though. I've been thinking of placing a bet that it will snow, so either way I win.

Last lot of clothing is in the washing machine now, 3 cases almost packed up and one bit of hand luggage. I think I'll be prepared on time for once, rather than running late like I always do :lol:

Hehe you are funny! Are you sure you won't be too tired to drive for 7 hours after the long flight? As long as you both are together nothing really matters. You will be coming home. One more thing, this week's forecast says that it will be high 40's. Jealous yet? Lol just teasing you. You have safe travels ahead too :)

F or C?

We will be lucky to get above freezing by April...

We have travelled between Boston and Edinburgh and Boston and London in Nove,Dec,Jane and Feb with no issues except for one christmas when David's plane was being de-iced and the moron driving the de-icer vehicle struck the plane's wing. He was delayed but still got here! You should be fine!

You might want to book a room at the Hilton at the airport and head to Buffalo in the morning! You guys will be exhausted!

Thanks so much!! I think I'm a little freaked out because Buffalo has had such a mild winter so far that people have been saying it's going to get really nasty around that time.

And wasn't it around that time last year that the East Coast went into meltdown?

Wouldn't mind being holed up in the Hilton though... :)

What do you think Maya? Are we in for a rough winter??

That's actually not a bad idea to stay in a hotel if you get into Boston late. But if you are in by late afternoon I wouldn't mind the drive. Ofcourse we will have snow (prolly at least 6-8 inches) in Feb but I wouldn't be so freaked out. Remember, it is normal for us to drive in that much snow, make sure you rent a smaller SUV. You will be good to go. Keep us in your prayers girlfriend. Hubby is still hanging in AP, has been a week yesterday, it is very frustrating and driving us insane.
