Sections of the East Coast(USA) are gearing up for another pretty bad snow storm.
It's been such an odd winter.
The Pocono areas in PA have gotten about 15" of snow this season, the sea shore town of Cape May, NJ, has gotten 31"! and another foot or more to come tonight into Saturday.
I'm just hoping the wind doesn't get too bad in my area for us to lose power. Not to mention wind just freaks me out.
Last I heard on Thursday evening weather (I'm afraid to look this morning incase it's gotten worse) we are in the area to get 8-14" of snow and wind gusts up to 40+mph between 9am and 3pm Saturday. Shore areas in NJ may have an actual blizzard and are under blizzard warnings last I knew. Our poor coastal towns & beaches have been getting hammered once or twice a month with these storms since September(rain or snow with each storm; beach erosion & flooding).
They say it's all because of the El Nino year, it's an "upside down winter" and it's "southern snow"...I think this El Nino year has lasted long enough and it's time for it to go away! Our area often doesn't get hit with ONE snow storm that brings a foot or more of snow...In December we had 23" and now probably another foot, maybe more.
I hope any of you on this board who are in the storms path will remain safe. Stock up on what you need, settle in at home and stay there!
I can't wait til Spring gets here!
