Crappy Weather Here

Today has been one miserable day.

We had rain, freezing rain, snow, cold and very high winds all day. 🙁

My power went out at 5:15PM and just came back on a few minutes ago.

The storm system is going east through the Great Lakes hitting Michigan and SouthWestern Ontario hard.

To everyone affected: stay safe guys!
 
Going to be nasty cold rain IN NEW HAVEN CONNECTICUT fortunately ... today was beautiful I'm bumming!



*(better?)

About 30cm of snow announced here tomorrow. I hope it happens late enough in the day so that I don't have to deal with that before or after church.
 
Dang. Getting freezing rain/ice/sleet early tomorrow morning lasting through the day. I was gonna go to the MIT Swapfest, but maybe not...
 
Roads where shit until i hit Woodstock driving back from airport...still way safer driving at night in a rain/snow storm than at night in the DR
 
Woke up to a nice icy crust on everything outside and freezing rain. Power apparently went out overnight but came back on pretty quickly
 
Cold rain here (south suburbs, 22 miles SW of downtown Chicago) since Friday. 😵

I see the same thing outside. Looks like about 2 inches of snow/ice everywhere outside.

Thank goodness i wasn't driving in that mess.
 
Good news for New England, the long range forecast predicts no more than three major blizzards in July and August and temps might even get out of the 50s once in a while.

So the roads here actually haven't been too bad. But the ice is weighing down trees. We went to the gym this morning and passed a downed powerline by the side of the road as a fire truck was pulling up. The transformer exploded about 30 seconds after we passed it. The power has flickered a few times and gone out briefly twice but we've been lucky

Unfortunately its been pouring rain all day otherwise I'd go out with my camera instead of just a few quick pictures near the house
 
The weather hasn't been bad here. From here on out we'll just have rain here. There will be breaks with the rain here and there.
 
It's coming here too! I'm assuming it's the same system at this point, it's a pretty big one.



Suppose to get 30cm of snow. Hopefully we don't get the freezing rain garbage though, that stuff is nasty.

Glad I'm not at work right now. That wind is pretty strong, probably going to get busy.

that's the system that is pummeling us here.

🙁
 
Since post # 14, it started snowing again. Last time outside we already had another two to three inches
 
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.



Not hitting as hard as I anticipated but it's still coming down. Thankfully no rain or ice so far.
