    Boy the East coast of the US has been hit so hard by snow, snow, and more snow. I can't imagine 7ft or more of snow and no place to go with it. Now we have a Nor-easter blowing in. It started coming across Wisconsin this morning when we woke up to fine snow and 20-30 mile and hour winds. The snow had stopped around noon, but the winds continue and the temps are going to get in the minus degrees.
    But out East especially in the Boston area they have a double wollop. More snow with winds reaching hurricane force along the coast area. They figure that there will be a lot of power outages. That will be scary with temps dipping in the -20 degrees.
    We do not have a lot of snow. But the cold and wind are unreal. I pray for any stewbies in the line of this storm to be safe and warm. :fingerscrossed:

    Tooty, you took the words out of my mouth. I've been watching the weather forecasts for the east coast and it doesn't look hopeful.
    And I do, too.

    Yep. it is just starting to snow here very lightly. However they are forecasting us 40 cm+. With blizzard conditions and historic cold temperatures. It is minus 29 here now is going much colder. Just praying that the hydro stays on as we have electric heat. Saint John was declared a disaster area during the last blizzard because of the snow amount and if this is bad as they say, it will be again. There is just no more room to put the snow!

    The pics on the news from Boston are astounding. So Much Snow! It looks like a difficult challenge to get around, and where can they put all that snow? Then, when it melts? Big mess.
    Stay safe , those of you that are affected!
