It's exceptionally nasty here in NH. The snow began in the wee hours before dawn and wasn't too bad, at first. Then th wind picked up and the storm intensified with all manner of snow, sleet and freezing rain. When I went out for firewood a while ag, I came in with a load of ice pellets in my hair.

The worst part is the low temperatures (18 F) and th wind gusts of up to 40 MPH, most of which penetrate this wall where I'm sitting. But, it's supposed to end by midnight and give us back the sun tomorow with higher temperatures (24 F) and more wind - Tom
