Looks like Phil was right, and we'll be getting blasted with winter again soon. It's pretty innocuous out right now, but the city has declared a snow emergency beginning at 10pm tonight. We may get up to 14 inches of snow, an unfortunate addition to the more than four feet we've already received this winter. Remember to move your cars, shovel your walks, and above all tweet away! more ›

We mentioned the tweets. Now, the websites. If the snow outside (which has actually started now) isn't enough for you, you can make it snow on your computer, too, with SNOWPOCALYPSE. Refresh the site for other fun ways to refer to today's flurries. Our favorite so far may be SNOWNAMI. If that becomes tiring, go the Barack Obama route. Barack Obama... dug you out of the snow? Maybe tomorrow. (Thanks to commenter/Flickrer iMatthew for the tip.) more ›

Well, it was inevitable. A Twitter group has been set up to tweet about today's (as-yet nonexistent) snow. If you're stuck in the house with nothing better to do, or if you're out and about and looking for updates, check the group for the latest snow scoop. Want to participate? Add #snow1219 to your twits—er, tweets. UHub has coined the phenomenon Snowtweeting. There are also Utterli and Flickr groups, as well as a snow poll for those who can't get enough snow-based internet action. That's a lot of stuff about very little snow (so far), and there have already been blog post cancellations to boot. more ›
