I got some new lawn ornaments.

It’s been rain-snow-sleet-snow-sleet around NYC.
High wind and lots of knocked down trees.
A lot of traffic lights are out and it was dicey getting home.
Luckily our co-op didn’t lose power, but more squirrels lost their homes.

Catskill got two foot of snow.

What the fuck is the difference between a nor’easter and a bomb cyclone? I grew up in Mass and never remember a bomb cyclone.

Marketing? Social media? Weather.com? It’s almost like these weather conditions are brand new and haven’t existed since the beginning of time. Phew .....

It's all about how quickly the storm intensifies.

**Dave Minion** · 03-02-2018, 08:05 PM

Don't think it's a regular cyclonic system, two low pressure system merged just off the coast, which is why it intensified real quick. Just drove down from Dover NH to Boston this afternoon, not too bad really. A bit breezy around the docks, meh, oi've sen wurse.

Yeah, that hip socket doesn’t look too happy either

Heal up well.

Lost some vinyl siding on the house. Time to call homeowners insurance!

SB · 03-03-2018, 01:50 PM

Whoa Sweetheart!

Heal up and stuff.

**nutmegchoi** · 03-03-2018, 02:28 PM

Thank you, TBS, rider3 and scottyb.
It’s been a rough year.

Got power back on the south shore this afternoon. Folks on the south coast still without. Really happy to have power back, last couple of storms like this were 4-5 days of no heat.

We usually don't have waves like this here (not my pic)

Um, is it the perspective or is there a tidal wave about to demolish the foreground and the photographer?

**365wp** · 03-05-2018, 07:13 AM

Mostly perspective. From another angle:

evidently, my buddy's kid went out surfing in Kennebunk and came back to this. Engineering student at Tufts. He understands tides and stuff. They dug it out and it ran. said it was an epic session.
