Unseasonably warm. 2/3 of the dumps of snow are gone. The maple trees are confused. Raining now. Back to COLD by tomorrow morn. Loads of Cedar Waxwings in the apple tree. A robin arrived several days ago too. Been drunk on the apples since. Two days ago, he chirped that spring chirp and I discovered his Missus has arrived. Love is in the air... which is odd as it's way too early given out usual climate.

It's March, and not a wet alley cat, not today.
Withering dryness; the kind of blue sky with not a speck of humidity, blinding searing intense blue. And a lion of a March wind is blowing. If this were, not New England, but the Four Corners, there would be dust everywhere and tumbleweeds all clumped up and flying down the highway.

Yes, Eliza, I knew a classmate from southern California who had never seen snow until she entered university in the northeastern US, and she too found it thrilling. I grew up near Lake Erie -- not so cold as Lake Superior, but more than enough lake-effect snow.

Today, far from Lake Erie, the wind has died down while the snow just keeps on falling; the blizzard-speed wind is due to return within the next twenty-four hours, and heavier snowfall with it. Can't we catch a breather here?!

Same here Dave (Norfolk UK) Went down the garden to put food out for the birds (including a new one, a rather smart male pheasant, which I suspect is taking refuge from the guns, as the shooting season is in full swing) I was wearing my fluffy slippers, and they got soaked by the slushy wet muck on the path. It's dark too and like living in a tunnel. Very depressing. It's officially 2 degrees C. Can't stand much more of this! :(

Ah Sandra, when my husband first arrived from W Africa, he'd never seen snow, or experienced temperatures below about 28 degrees C. He was absolutely enchanted and rushed outside (I managed to get him into boots, a puffa jacket and a scarf, plus woolly hat) He started to build things with the snow, and I showed him how to roll a giant ball to make a snowman. He foolishly took his gloves off, and in a few minutes said, "Aiiiieee!! This snow is burning my fingers! And also my toes!" His poor hands and feet were almost frostbitten! He still adores snow (I certainly don't) There's an advert on TV at the moment about a toy meerkat and a 'snow dream' where he's invited to build a 'snowkat'. I always get a bit choked up as it reminds me of those early days.

I couldn't take that kind of HOT!

Some forecasts paint a worse scenario but here is the Environment Canada forecast...

Blizzard warning in effect for:

Moncton and Southeast New Brunswick
Blizzard conditions with gusty winds and persistent visibility near zero in snow and blowing snow are expected or occurring.

A low pressure system is expected to develop south of Cape Cod this evening and intensify as it moves towards Nova Scotia tonight. Snow will begin over southwestern New Brunswick this evening and spread eastward throughout the night.

As the storm passes south of Nova Scotia on Monday, it will intensify and give heavy snow, very strong northeasterly winds, and blowing snow resulting in blizzard conditions to much of the southern half of New Brunswick.

Snowfall amounts between 25 and 55 cm is expected with winds gusting up to 100 km/h. The highest snowfall amounts and strongest winds are forecast to be along the Fundy coast.

The snow will taper to flurries Monday evening and the winds will gradually diminish Monday night as the low continues to move east.

Travel is expected to be extremely hazardous due to widespread poor visibility. Travel is not recommended.

Blizzard warnings are issued when widespread reduced visibilities of 400 metres or less are expected for at least 4 hours.

NS will get much worse... gonna be a real mess in Halifax.

I would like some cool - but yours is far too much for me. Living in a temperate climate where winter does not get below 10C, in an apartment where the windows are permanently locked open for about 6 inches ...

I've only once seen snow when I visited a friend in the Snow Mountains region early one winter. We spend a day at a ski resort & I touched snow & slid on it & created a snowball & threw it then, we had dinner & went back to his nearby town where it was just cold & not snowy!

Blizzards going and coming in Massachusetts as well.
The right side mirror, the one outside the car, stopped reflecting.
It turned solid black behind the clear surface and it won't reflect anything at all.
I didn't know side mirrors on an auto could even do that.

Here we are expecting more snow starting Sunday morning and ending Monday night. I'm just inside the bad zone for this storm which will be milder for those living in southern Rhode Island. We had a blizzard on Thursday. For that storm too I lived just inside the bad zone which was milder for those living in northern RI. This is what happens to those of us living in the middle of the state! The weather reports kept giving us a blizzard warning as the snow fell and the winds blew. Finally in the mid-afternoon it was declared a blizzard. The plows came through in the late evening and I wasn't able to get outside in time to move my car to avoid being plowed in. Thank goodness for a neighbor who did most of the work shoveling my car out. I owe his family a gift certificate to a nice local restaurant.

here in sunny summery sydney we are in the midst of a heatwave with
catastrophic fire danger in some parts of the state.
Bureau of Meteorology heatwave assessment

I'm on the edge of Sydney's CBD close to the harbour (tho I can't see it) but it's effect means we are cooler than out in suburbia & in most of the state. Temperature at 4.30pm Sat is 35.4C here, with 44 to 46 in the west. (38 is 100F)

Everyone has been told to conserve electricity - eg. turn off & unplug unnecessary items. One of our largest energy companies shut down a smelter for a couple of hours yesterday as it uses 10% of the state's electricity & is doing so again this afternoon.

and tomorrow is expected to be 29! yah, cool weather (not) & about 10 degrees warmer in the Western suburbs.

Thread drift....throwing food to the wind when there is work to be done.

This reminds me of the story of Muddy Waters being introduced to a young fellow who went by Buddy Guy -- and hauling off and slapping his face, on the spot.

Buddy Guy had just arrived in Chicago and was trying to connect with people, with musicians anyhow. As I recall his telling of the story, he went for a day or two without eating solid food, we all know what that means. Muddy Waters slapped him after finding this out. And then he sat Buddy Guy down and bought him a salami sandwich. Heard of that one?

Started Tuesday night. Latest word was tomorrow between 10 and 11PM. I started hauling can goods to the basement and finished the last load, knowing all would be safe from freezing. I sat in my office for a well deserved smoke and a beer and... yup, my office lights came on. NB Power left an hour ago. I gave the boys a BIG thumbs-up and they gave it back.

Now they can join their buddies in NE NB. The poor buggers up there will be weeks getting power back on. I saw a video yesterday taken in Lamèque by a guy driving the main road... pole after pole after pole smashed and downed. The whole road, for miles and miles and it's all over NE NB. NB Power has to, essentially, "reinstall" the works... drill new holes for poles and all. Crews from NS, PQ, and ME are on the ground too.

It was eventful. Learned a few things, like, having home phone with a cable company means you can lose your land line when the power goes out and also your cell phone. That distressed Mum a great deal. Anyway, it was fun. The generator deal at Mum's was a big payoff for a ten year old investment.

Greco XXL (32 slice) Grecoworks pizza has been ordered for the celebration. The box takes up every inch of one shelf in my fridge. I should weigh myself BEFORE I get it because I know I dropped some pounds during this fun time. Didn't even eat for the first day and a half... 'cept fer a few ales. We men types throws food to the wind, we does, when there is "work" to be done.
