Thanks pylon!

So I was reading the c/o 2017 applicants thread tonight and it's a lot more exciting than this one. They had a huge discussion about YP that stretched the thread to twice as many posts by this point in the cycle. But the worst part was that in January a massive blizzard shut down Penn at 2:00pm on a decision day! Users were fantasizing that the AdComm would make calls from home (they didn't).

So about the potentially historic winter storm that's going to hit the Northeast tomorrow...

You were awesome till now Nick! Now you're dashing our hopes for an exciting tomorrow.

Better alternative: AdComm is entrapped in the office due to several feet of snow, non-stop calls and decisions until snow lets up

There's a certain zen in not having gone UR yet. At least I don't have to wonder if tomorrow will be The Day.

Also unrelated, but I was just rewatching a White Collar ep with Nick Halden. <3 Neal.

With the exception of 12.18, Decision Days this cycle have also been UR2 days - and in December there was a UR2 day the next day. So today could be the day (little d!) for you. And Nick Halden is my man. I love his relationship with Addler and Kate. That's by far my favorite episode of the series, although I did tear up during the finale in December.

PS. Dear @PennLawAdmissions - you know I'm joking. Safety first after calling nickhalden.

It looks like a lot of schools/day care are closing early, which means parents are leaving work early, which means it's basically a half day for a lot of folks in the city.

My trusted friends at the NYTimes: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/27/nyreg ... -news&_r=0

Although I combined this with my nifty weather app to make a prediction (guess) about the time this snowfall is going to drop...perhaps I shouldn't play meteorologist

Just wanna say even though I don't know any of you personally, you are all gems and sometimes I el oh el out loud at work reading this thread. We are all complete Type A crazies - but hey at least we're all in this together.

To my fellow New Englanders/ East Coasters, please be safe for this blizzard! You have a bright and promising future at Penn Law (or a school just as amazing) so at least keep yourself alive until the admissions cycle is over!!

I work in Philly and was woefully uninformed about our impending snowpocalypse, so I decided to look this up (to see if I actually have hope of a snow day tomorrow). Apparently weather.com says 1-3 inches today, 3-5 inches tonight, 3 inches tomorrow. The National Weather Service says 12-16, but I'd be incredibly surprised if that happened...

Their admissions office tweets are so endearing. (Also, it does seem like they're subtly responding to the mania on this thread, no?)

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
