N'easter Today

[Lloyd_E]

How are you folks fairing in New England? Just curious as to the hit we may take tomorrow.
We are on the coast so it could be snow, snow and rain or rain depending on the track and temperature.

I am well prepared. No reason to go any where - although the wife may have ideas - looking forward to playing - working a bit in the snow.

Just light snow now. Location North East Vermont. Not really expecting too much. Seems to be a coastal storm.

We have about 3 inches of snow on the ground here,however its +5C and raining quite hard now,I suspect when the rain stops later today there won't be any snow left to plow.

PS.....I'm on the South Shore of Nova Scotia.

Started here about 8PM last night, light-ish snow...

This AM when I got up at 5, quite a difference! Coming in sideways from the north. My tractor, in it's north-facing semi-sheltered space, is already covered with snow and I haven't even started it yet!

Hard to tell snow amount; just went out to feed chickens, and stepped through places that had been scoured by wind, only 6-8" deep; other spots it was up to my knees.... and still coming down.

Let's see... 17F, 25-mph wind.... (anyone follow the "wind chill" discussion?:laughing... It's cold out there!

One of those times a plow might make a lot more sense than a blower! Oh, well, ya works with what ya got....

Good luck in Nova Scotia. Serious winds blowing inland, here in northern maine. I would assume, it'll be worse out there.

We might have gotten about a foot last night, not sure haven't gone out to check yet. Right now it is hard to tell if it is snowing hard or just the winds blowing up the show on the roof and ground.

Wind just let up for about 10 seconds and it is reallay snowing, must be an age thing, I am not excited...

Winds are gusting to about 30 mph and it is nasty out there. Sure I can wait until later in the morning to fire up the tractor, pretty nice sitting here next to the woodstove drinking coffee and enjoying the TractorByNet....LOL

Same here (which is only slightly south of you). I might go out and do the stairs but driveway waits until snow is over.
