Under the Arctic Air

You may have heard there’s a weather system impacting North America in the last few days.
This is what it looks like under my tiny sliver in the middle of Michigan.

This past weekend, hundreds of thousands were out of power, including everyone on the other side of my street – for 30 hours or so. 

There was some wind, but what really hammered the trees around here was, the first 3-4 inches of snow were heavy and wet, and when the temps dropped, it set up like cement on the tree branches. If we get another strong wind, I’m worried there will be more limbs coming down on transmission lines, roads, and cars.
Looking like the rest of this week in deep freeze.

  1. My wife, Claire, likes the snow so, she misses it when/if it doesn’t come. Alas, it looks like our New England is going to have less and less snow as the years pass. Oh well.


  2. I live in Florida. No problems with snow. Hurricanes seem not to happen now as much as in the past and with better construction, I’ve stayed in place for the past hurricanes that hit here. It’s rather paradise here.
