The Northeast States are under attack from one of the biggest earliest snowstorms on record. 3 million people are without power. The snowstorm is not so attractive. Just writing that gave me a shiver, well, that or the free strawberry Sunday from Burger King. The Sunday was yummy for the price.
Heck, hurricane season does not end until November 30th. What kind of storm happens when a hurricane hits a snowstorm? My guess is that would be cold, wet, windy and miserable with flooding.
The next two days will be sunny and 50 degrees in Seattle. That is a lot easier for me to deal with than a foot of snow.
I am grateful for our mild weather in the Pacific Northwest.
[That does bring up a rant for the cartographically challenged: Why is this region called the PNW? We are on the NE corner of the Pacific Ocean—China, Russian and Japan on are the Pacific Northwest according to the maps I have looked at.. They don’t call the New England States the “Atlantic NorthWest”. /rant]
