Wacked twice in less that a week....

[FRANKIE]

Here we go again. Less that a week ago, we had a Nor'easter that gave some areas in our region over a foot of show with heavy rain before the snow to soak the ground first . Some places experienced wind gusts of 71 mph. That's almost hurricaine force. Many trees went down dur to the high winds and the heavy wet snow. 500,000 people were without electricity. 5 days later there still some people without electricity and a few roads still blocked by fallen trees. Right at the shore, we had more rain that snow but inland New Jersey and Pennsylvanie got hit hard. Now, 5 days later, another nor'easter is about hit. North above Philly might get better that 14 inches of snow with Philly getting 6 to 12 inches. Down here at the shore, we'll ger mostly rain until the end of the storm when we might pick up 2 or 3 inches. Again, winds should gust up to 55 mph. I just we can keep our electric................Frankie

Hope you don't suffer too much mate, being without electricity when it's freezing is horrible. It's time your Government had a good look at putting power lines underground like most are here. It would cost a fair amount but once it's done you won't have this "Will it or won't it" cause power outage dilemma. Stay safe mate.
