The Crippling Blizzard of '16

Hope everyone in the storm's path will be okay. It really looks like a doozy. I called my mom in western NC today, and they'd only had 4" but more was supposed to wrap in behind it, so we'll see what she ends up with.

We had more blustery wind and heavy rain bands move through Florida today yet again, another El Nino storm, and there was a tornado warning near New Smyrna Beach. Pax, are you okay? I hope you didn't have any problems. We dodged a bullet yet again west of Orlando, but they say another one of these storms is due to come through next Wed/Thurs. Scary when I see the tornado aftermath videos and photos of Cape Coral and Ft. Myers in SW Florida, right where my g-parents used to live.

We're good, thanks Emily. If you make it over near NSB let me know, we can meet up for lunch... we may have storms, but you don't have to shovel them!

We are getting pounded. Power just came on, it has been out for about 8 hours. Very high winds, 10 inches of snow, now sleet and freezing rain, more heavy snow coming. Good times. Just hunkered down drinking tea. I will probably hit my trainer later since I can't run in this. Too dangerous.
