This has the makings of a one-two punch.

Winter Storm Noah has rolled across the northern tier of states
and will be crunching down upon the Boston area in a matter of minutes.

Winter Storm Oliver will be a day or two behind Noah,
it may already be taking shape in the Pacific Northwest.

Noah is going to hit us with the kind of heavy wet snow
that is dangerous to tackle with a shovel.
Then the temperature shoots 'way up above thawing.
Then comes Oliver . . .

the winter terrorists must be having fun at our expense.

(BUT: is there snow in Pocatello?)
