Arctic Blast coming to Northeast next week

[thewoodlands]

I'm seeing teens coming to Northwest Jersey for the weekend/early next week!

When I got up it was 32 degrees, 20 minutes later we were at 16, with the windchill we are at 0.

How's things going down there? Saw two convoys of power company trucks southbound this morning.

3 inches of wet snow and pouring it iced before this started. Very dangerous roads and the power is flickering and trees sagging.

Wood stove is cranking away.

Been lucky the power is still on at my house. Looks like the storm is about over for me got 6 inches of wet snow.

Had a very interesting day trying to get back from town.

Looks like the Southeast is getting quite a dump. Not sure if BrotherBart and MsCrabapple still have power. If not, at least they're warm. Stay safe out there folks, the roads are bad and a lot of folks in the south are not used to driving it this stuff.

Not sure which county she lives in but here's a power outage map, I have some relatives that live northwest of Raleigh.

Yup, and I am going to be sure my wood is covered good, for when it rains and than turns real cold.
Can't burn ice sickles

For this week we'll push in some cherry since it will warm up, the sugar maple is up for the next cold snap, then back to the cherry for the rest of the year.
