Default Heard on the air

We had just taken off VFR from HPN when a snow squall blew in. We hadn't
even reached pattern altitude when we decided discretion was the better
part of valor. We came right back and landed.

On the taxi back, I heard ground say to somebody, "The field is now IFR,
visibility 2-1/2 miles in snow, say intentions". There was a pause, then a
heavily accented voice replied, "I *am* paying attention".
