That is one nasty looking line. Poor folks. Should be cold and snowing. It's mid January for crying out loud. lol





Some folks will have damage to their property and will be cleaning up the debris

Strong storms moving through tonight here. Strong winds, Hail, and a possible tornado.

At least Quebec and New England is getting snow.

For us at least in extreme SW Quebec the forecast has been revised and snow totals downgraded as we'll be going above freezing Saturday. That means rain. I assume Montreal is the same as us as we're on the same latitude.

Yeah.. you're in a "bad" spot with this one. I should of included Ontario with my comment. Nice snowstorm for SE Ontario and Western Quebec.


Here's the snow total projection from the NAM.
