Overnight, in Central New York
Apr. 5th, 2018 07:51 amWoke up this morning to a strange, bright light illuminating the windows of the house and the sound of traffic strangely muffled as it passed by out on the street. There was, of course, a logical explanation for both. If you can call 2 to 3 inches of snow on the 5th day of April "logical."
Because that's what we got, overnight, here in Central New York State. That was following a day of hurricane-force winds that tore through here yesterday from the early afternoon to the late evening. Not much damage, on this property, aside from a decorative shutter torn off the front of the house and shattered on the ground next to it. But across Upstate NY, over 100,000 homes and businesses had lost power due to the high winds.
All of which makes about as much sense, in terms of weather history, logic, and known facts, as that orange-haired blowhard in the White House. But which is still, despite blacking out significant portions of the power grid, much less dangerous...
