And there will be serious impact on travel.
My bear hunt outfitter in New Brunswick just called to say he has delayed for a week his marketing trip to the USA due to the weather.

Those storms make our Dallas area winter look wimpy!

Hang in there, Spring will always come, sooner or later. :wink:

We have 15" worth of Southern New England snow flurries ;) here (with lots of drifting due to the high winds), so far - but, as Yogi Berra once said, it's not over til it's over.... :mrgreen:

The weatherheads on TV say the temp will go below zero tonite, so I'm making sure everything's cleared of snow, so there shouldn't be snow on the driveway & vehicles to freeze up & be a bear to remove.

So far, the power's still "on", which makes little difference to me, since I have a 7.5KW genny in my shed, hooked up to my home.

Soooo, as long as the coffee lasts, I should be good to go. ;)

Well, we have over a foot up in central Maine.

It's up over 25F, too - the one positive part of the storm!

This weekend promises to be frigid. The high Saturday is
supposed to be around 0F; the low at -20F or more. With
wind. And we'll have to finish the cleanup then, too.

On the plus side, I've got plenty of firewood, people who love me,
and I'm eating well. Just had grilled, (yes, I fired up the grill in the
snowstorm!) pork chops stuffed with gouda and bacon. 8) So life
could be worse!

A few folks are without power. I hope that they get it back quickly.

It was almost a white hurricane. Some fishermen lost their ships yesterday being battered against the wharves. One caught fire at the dock and is a total lost in Yarmouth Harbour, Nova Scotia. Storm surge covering many low areas with water and ice. Plus parts of the electrical grid is down again and was not totally fixed since the last storm hit at Christmas .

Whoa! That makes my little 31 degree icy rain and 2.5 mph east wind look like suntan weather. Keep safe, all you folks "back east"!

It is almost 60 degrees right now where I am. Stay safe those of you who are up there where it is getting hit with snow.

This morning I stopped by the shore and took a few photos. The cloud shield of the storm is moving away to the east. Just cold 0F and medium winds around 25 mph.
