Ok fine!
Well as it turns out here in the Northern Catskill high peaks we were in the
bullseye of this whopper of a storm.
We received a record 6 feet of snow from Tuesday to Friday afternoon.
Six feet. More in the highest locations. Front loaders and monster
excavation equipment were more the norm rather than your traditional plow
trucks, some of which were getting stuck themselves throughout the cleanup
effort today.
Yesterday there was gridlock on the roads leading to our ski resorts (Hunter
and Windham) and we expect the same today (Sun).
I was on the radio here (and online at wrip979.com) from 1:30p today
relaying information about power restoration efforts, emergency services and
road closures/conditions. Plus we were putting callers on the air trying to
get people plowed out who had been stranded for up to four days. Live and
local radio, just what you'd expect I guess.
Some of the audio I collected from emergency officials and police aired live
right off the phone, other times I recorded, edited and processed the audio
in CEPro for better intelligibility on air.
All in all a very satisfying day for this radio junkie, as you might
imagine.
Hope your gathering was swell...wondering what the gang all thought of
Sally's and did you receive the requisite amount of attitude from the wait
staff, or did UJS go and nuzzle up to (owner) Flo Consiglio?

Yea, I'll be going....pre or post....I dunno, close
call (hillbilly beard
will have to be included this year).
I had realized that I left the mic we were talking
about in L.I. I thought
that I would have been there at least once this
winter, but things happened.
I do plan on going out there next week, weather
permitting, to lop down
those 15' tall hedges (before the sap starts flowing
and leafing out
starts). At least this way I'll have both tube
pre-amp and mic at the
'fest.
