Mid-December Snowstorm

While it's made local TV almost unwatchable, as they indulge themselves in wall-to-wall coverage of what is really a routine event in the northern tier of states, please be careful.

In many areas, this is a wet snow, of the kind that some call "heart-attack snow".

This is not the time to get a heart attack or other injury from shoveling snow. Most of the hospitals are busy enough, right now.

  1. A bit further north of the Mass pike its fluffy, drifty, and dry snow.
    Still no fun to shovel as its messy to toss being fluffy, windy and
    below 20F.

    we got a foot of the stuff, its winter!

    Eck!

  2. I live in Maryland. Back in the 70s and 80s, everyone from out of state mocked us for how we reacted to snow: closing schools, news coverage, etc. "Two feet of snow? That's nothing! You people are wimps!" Now it seems everything over six inches is "a major weather event."
