If the storm gets named then the insurance industry is shifting some of the liability for resulting damages to the policy holder - named storms = shared liability vs unnamed storms - that's why all storms of any severity are now named including winter storms - it's always about the money

Stay safe glper's and keep the family close

Grass seed down. Check
Gas for the generator. Check
Sump pumps working. Check
Spare sump pump. Check
Wood for the stove. Check
A good book to read. Check

All set.

Thanks for this.

This is also comparable to “Hell Hail” and “Super Cobra Death Droughts”.

10/16/19 ...yep

Up here in Maine, we Maniacs simply call it a Nor"Easter. Although it has wrap-around winds that appear to be opposite of what Hurricanes are like in the Western Hemisphere (thus the bomb CYCLONE). Cyclones are things of the Eastern Hemisphere.

A Nor"Easter can be a complex beast. With the islands offshore and the swirling winds of the Deep North, the damage from these storms can be severe though usually not life-threatening. When warm winds from the south clash, the results can be dramatic. A WINTER Nor"Easter is another story altogether. THOSE storms can kill.

The bigger question, does it bring "THUNDERSNOW"???

It's a typical seasonal nor'easter. The hyperbolic jargon is a marketing tool for local TV news.

And its so overdone. They hype them up, at 8" snow totals above actual totals, and everyone scrambles to the store to buy supplies. Its a tactic to keep thr economy afloat.

No, a cyclone can be a low pressure system anywhere in the
world.

Nice duster Torchie. Dry cleaned ? The worst we do around here is pressure wash then rewax them.

Already planning for a complete schishow in the northeast for the airline I work for.

just be thankful that is is rain and not snow

we got hit by one of those "bombs" (cyclone) last Feb, and there was hell to pay ... omg - the winds were gusting hurrican strength ... the blizzard that we had a month later, was nothing in comparrison to the bomb ... the wind howled for at least 24 hrs ... first time I ever = didn't try to get to the barn to feed my critters ... we all just hunkered down - in drifts seven feet tall

I just hope that it was a once in a lifetime experience ... my heart goes out to you folks ... remember 'this too shall pass'

but it could get worse since this is only the second Winter of the Grand Solar Minimum cycle

More 5G. This won't be the end of it either. This winter will make last winter look like the Garden of Eden.

LOOK MARTHA IT LOOKS LIKE A TYPICAL ARIZONA SUMMER STORM!!!!
