PING: New Yorkers (Brrrr!)

I've been reading this morning about the awful weather up there.
Doesn't Baha live pretty much where the worst of it is? Two feet of
snow, freezing temperatures and downed power lines sounds very
dangerous. I hope everyone is okay, and that it really isn't as bad as
the report I read is making it out to sound like. It sounds downright
scary.

Huh? It's sunny and mild here.

OH!! You mean UPSTATE!

(Seriously, big purrs to the Northland)

Ooo Matthew. Better think about that wish! In 2000 we had an awful ice
storm and had no power, or heat for three days, and nobody else did
either, so there was nowhere to go. We just toughed it out. Of course
I can find something funny about anything--the funny part was, I put
the Christmas turkey in the back of the truck because it was thawing in
the fridge. The coyotes got it. I still laugh about that. I can't
believe I did such a dumb thing.

I used to live in Kentucky in the hills just below snow lines. You lost
power almost every week due to the snow. So you learned to snuggle how to
have plenty of wood available and make the best of it. Down here if that
happened almost everyone they would have their generators available

The varmints were always bothering the smoke shed and the root cellar.
They made some good cooking when we got them

John called and said Buffalo got hit hard which means Rochester where he
grew up probably also got it. Since he moved his mother to an assisted
living facility in NW Arkansas he still has to pay the utility bills to keep
the pipes from freezing (or to keep the hardwood floor from buckling given
temperature fluctuations between hot and cold) so he's not happy about that.

Aren't we glad to be in the southern U.S. about now! As it is it's cold
here, but it's supposed to sneak into the 70's tomorrow.

I never saw the little kitty cat again from last night I hope she'll
come back around. The kibble is still out there.

Baha and Randy live out that way - I heard it was quite nasty for a
while there. Snow rates of 4" per hour at times. We missed that storm,
thank god (goddess!)

We've had the opposite. Scorching days around the country, with at least 3
states wuth serious bushfires. Strange old world.

Ironically Brisbane is not scorching at all. It even gets nippy at
night and I barely break a sweat during the day.

For those who aren't aware Brisbane is typically a lot warmer than
Sydney, Melbourne and Wollongong. At the moment the temperatures are
reversed. Quite out of character.

I live about 60 miles southeast of Buffalo and we didn't get any of it. It was
bad in Buffalo. As of this morning there are still approximately 20,000 without
electricity and it may be a few more days before some of them get it restored.
Most of the Buffalo area was under a state of emergency yesterday and declared
a disaster area. Many roads were inpassable with all the trees and branches
down. It is snowing heavly at this moment here. It is starting to accumulate
but I don't believe we are suppose to get much. The problem with it is with
most of the leaves still on the trees the heavy wet snow causes the branches to
break and knock down power lines.
