Our forecast (I'm in SW New Hampshire, just outside of Keene) now says "more than a foot" on Saturday night followed by "more than a foot" on Sunday. Our snow totals keep going UP!
At least as of now there is no more mention of ice, and we are quite a bit north of that "ice band" in post #71. (We're in the "2 ft +" snow band!)
I won't mind the snow, I just don't want to lose power!! I did have 2 propane heaters installed this past fall just for such occasions, one upstairs (back hall) and one downstairs (TV room), so we would have SOME heat, but given the insanely low overnight temps expected Sunday night (negative numbers), I am more worried than excited at this point ...
Luckily, snow usually doesn't cause power outages, especially light fluffy snow like this storm's going to drop in your area and mine. It's rain that turns to ice that takes down power lines and trees. I can remember an ice storm in our region in the 90s that folded those giant steel towers that carry feeder lines like licorice.
Warnings are being issued now. Should see more areas as today goes on.
