Turned out to be a Winnie the Pooh storm in my town (suburban Boston)- no more than a blustery day (although in quirks of nature, some nearby towns had worse damage and still have no power) Lost a big branch (as big around as my leg) in the front yard early but then things died down and I was able to saw and clean it up during the predicted "peak" of the storm on Sunday afternoon.
Of God was trying to send a message, he's weak and has bad aim
If we can't predict tomorrow's weather, how can we predict longterm trends?
Up where I am, in the Champlain Valley, it wasn't that bad. It rained and the wind blew constantly, sometimes gusting to high levels, but on the whole it wasn't that much different than some of the Fall storms I've experienced before.
We did lose power three times, which surprised me, but it came back, usually within an hour or so. And up here, the flooding was nowhere near what we went through this last Spring, when Lake Champlain crested for over two months and some homes had mini-lakes in their front yards.
All in all, it was no big deal. Now, southern Vermont, as you've probably seen on the news, was something else again.
Water up to the third front step of your old place on Riverside Avenue in Lyndhurst.
That's pretty frightening--not that it's flooded, but that anonymous people know where I live.
