WHERE THE HELL ART THOU?! 14F and blowin' snow here in the cheese belt.

Mee-eh, biggest snow of a meager season.

Biggest snowstorm of the season due to blow through these parts in about 24 hours. Probably upwards of a foot of snow. One good thing is that snow doesn't last long this time of year. In fact, I'm changing the snowies out on Friday. For better mileage.

I left New york City where it was Cold Rain & Snow..... in the 20'sI'm in Naples Florida where it's Here Comes Sunshine....in the 80's

Nemo was a lamb in central NJ. Posted an album of midnight pictures if anyone cares to see: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10200601541306787.2203812.140…

Hurricane conditions on the Cape have eased as Blizzard Nemo starts to move out. There is an astrological (monthly) high tide at 10am and barrier island communities like Hull are being highly urged to leave immediately. In Ma. there are no mandatory evac. orders allowed but you'd have to be pretty stupid to stay (I'm watching waves break on backyards). This has the official label "Blizzard" stamped on it as there were three or more continuous hours of sustained winds over 40mph. Peak gust 75mph. Worcester Ma., reporting 27.5 inches. Hartford and surrounding areas are unofficially reporting 36 plus inches. Most of central, eastern Ma. and southern NH & SE Maine are reporting 18-24". No subway in Boston today, never mind airport. Official Boston total 21.5" as of 8am. Hundreds of cars buried out on the Long Island Expressway. If you live in Tahoe or Steamboat Springs or Vail or other great ski area, they are great cause they get this kind of snow on an almost continual basis. No biggie. In the densely populated NE the power outages become increasingly serious as people need shelter who have electric heat. Currently there are 400,000 homes without power. Time to kick back, do some fine cooking and do a small amount of shoveling, it hasn't stopped blowing and drifting yet.

Gad zooks! 3 feet of snow in Hartford, according to news reports from NBC/Weather Channel folks this Saturday morning! Let's hear some wintry tales!

Winter Storm Nemo continues it's relentless trek up the East Coast and in from the Great Lakes in a pincer modoement that will result in a storm that will blossom fully in the NY-NE area. Blizzard conditions with 24"-32" of snow will persist across Cape Cod and a narrow corridor from Boston to Providence. A weaker, but still potent ring will encompass Portland Me., inland 50 miles and then down to at least New Haven, if not New York.. The last time Boston faced a storm of this magnitude in the winter was around 2006 when a truly humongous storm dumped fifty inches of snow at Logan Airport. I know, I was there three days after and parkjing spaces were like polar caves. Ahhh, the winter. Better learn to it enjoy it before it enjoys you!
