It sure looks that way, hopefully we don't get the real high winds. It sounds like when we lose power we'll be without it longer than last time but I can understand that, safety first and if the winds/weather won't allow them to work, that's okay.It's going to get interesting for us.
Already 500 without power in Clifton area.The winds weren't bad until just about five minutes ago, they're picking up pretty good.
I saw that, our winds really haven't been that strong yet, maybe 40 mph gust at the most. We have received between 0.75 to 1.00 inch of rain which took all the snow off the trees.Already 500 without power in Clifton area.
About 1:30 the snow moved in with the wind and the temperature is dropping, about 20 minutes later the scanner has all sorts of action.I'm between Buffalo,NY and Rochester,NY, rain changed to snow here around 8:00 AM est, temp dropped 15 degrees and wind kicked up.. here we go...
We'll take the snow with wind over ice after we went through the ice storm of 98.Well, the good news is that so far we have not lost power. The entire region is encased in ice. Almost all mass transit, mail service, etc. have been canceled for the entire region. That includes a lot of flights.
Fortunately, the temperature is rising and hopefully, in another few hours, it will all begin to thaw.
We'll take the warmer weather, the month of January is usually very cold. I'm holding back our beech for those coldest days in January and February.Power went out for my sisters in NC and NY due to very strong winds and a major temperature drop. Meanwhile, it's 51ª today. I let the fire die out. This is a 30º improvement over 2 days ago. We'll be sending it your way for New Years. Have a Merry.
