Well the storm is over this morning. Plow had some problems but got the driveway open. Got stuck once but another plow passing stopped and got him out.

The current issue to me is there is no warmer weather in the forcast to melt some of the accumulation down. At least our power stayed on.

A poster mentioned about the prevalence of home generators. Probably getting close to fifty percent here now. It is wise to always have some form of heat available that does not depend on electricity. Few would have enough gas on hand for their generators given a several day outage if it arrived.

They probably would not think to get some out of their car tanks either. A lot like ourselves just have a wood stove for that unlikely event. Plus various forms of alternative lighting. Including some really bright kerosene types.

I just looked out a minute ago and it is snowing again with no wind anymore. Strong enough though for some additional accumulation.
