Firing blanks

Like life isn't exciting enough as it is all it takes are a few weather maps and several zealous meteorologist, tossed in with a couple of TV news anchors and you have the makings of disasters on our door steps. Sure over the last two and a half weeks we've averaged a snow event every three days and leading into this weekend was the BLIZZARD of 2015 II. Technically a blizzard refers to a high winds event and in cold weather in the northeast US copious amounts of snow usually accompanies that wind for good measure. The forecast for my region began at 15 to 20 inched overnight yesterday well into today. Made sure the generator was ready, stocked up on essential supplies, beer, wine, snacks. In southwest Maine and further in that direction in Boston yes they got blasted. Here on Ledge Hill and the surrounding area maybe 3 inches but we do have a lot of wind... beer, wine, snacks.
