In my opinion I believe that it will be very difficult this month to achieve what we have been doing. We are going to get hit severely and with MAV at Clifton Nj the expected snowfall is calling for 33 inches of snow. Already due to New year's/Martin Luther King we have missed 2 to 3 days. If this storm goes according to plan this week we may miss 2 to 4 days which is not unlikely at all. They are calling this one of the worst storms alltime.So at 220k to 250k per day if we missed 3 days to holidays and we miss 2 to 4 more I AM NOT EXPECTING WHAT WE HAVE DONE RECENTLY. NOT BECAUSE EXPRESS SCRIPTS BUT RATHER 3 HOLIDAYS PLUS POTENTIALLY 3 TO 5 DAYS MORE DUE TO THIS STORM.
OF COURSE ALL BUSINESS WILL BE SLOWED DOWN FOR EVERYONE ALL THINGS EQUAL. I HAVE A "VERY" DIMINISHED EXPECTATION THIS MONTH AND IT WILL NOT BE ANYTHING CLOSE TO WHAT WE HAVE ACHIEVED RECENTLY. IT'S COMMON SENSE I WOULD MUTE ALL FORECASTS HERE DRAMATICALLY.
BOTTOM LINE: THIS STORM WILL SLOW BUSINESS DRAMATICALLY COUPLED WITH 2TO 3 DAYS OFF FROM NY YEAR'S AS WELL AS MARTIN LUTHER KING. I BELIEVE A RESUMPTION TAKES PLACE FOR FEB IMHO.
