I wouldn’t bother just yet. They’re not able to keep up here…I just heard, on the local news, that 495 is empty…for good reason.
To be fair, after waking up around 4am, I slept in…and am working on my first coffee.
I woke to no power or internet, but the power came on by the time I made it to the kitchen. The internet came back a few minutes ago.
I’d hang in there for lunch at least…if not dinner….unless you’ve rented a deuce and a half.

It stopped snowing here. Just a few flakes. We’re about to shovel out the car. It looks like slow going on the Garden State Pkwy, but once we’re parallel to NYC, it opens up. It’s still looking like a seven hour drive. Hopefully when we get to Logan airport to drop off the rental and grab my car, there’s no storm surge. If there is, we won’t be able to get to the Chelsea employee garage.
 
Have a friend that checked in with cousins in New Jersey. Was told they pulled the snow plows off the roads. Couldn’t keep up and not safe to continue.
 
I am having some difficulty with opening a door to the outside here. All of my windows are pasted with snow, except two. One is mostly blocked by a 5 foot plus drift(up to my eyes, and I’m 6’1”) that peaks about two feet away from the door. The other is one of the upper portions of a window on the main floor that has had some of the paste coating fall away.
No way to tell just how much has fallen, as the drifting is kinda crazy. I see spots that look like a foot deep(in front of my garage), and areas that look more like two additional feet. It is gonna be a fun evening of shoveling…if I can shove the door open a few more inches, so I can fit through, the fun will commence.
I just saw reports of 30-40” in a couple of spots to the south and west of me.
 
…and now the authorities have declared a travel ban for my area. I hope @SG John is not coming up 95, because it’s pretty bad from reporting on the local news. Stranded cars on highways etc.
Best to approach from the west…like I 90.
