Hurricane-Like Storm Aims for Pennsylvania to Maine Thursday, Friday
2/23/2010 9:45 AM



A powerful storm of historical proportions is aiming at much of the Northeast Thursday into Friday and will follow up to a foot and a half of snow through Wednesday over upstate New York and western New England.

This second storm will be nothing short of a monster. Even in light of the blizzards earlier this winter that targeted the southern mid-Atlantic, this may be the one that people remember the most this winter in parts of New England and the northern mid-Atlantic.

At its peak, the storm will deliver near hurricane-force wind gusts (74 mph) blinding snow falling at the rate of over an inch per hour. For some people in upstate New York and eastern and northern Pennsylvania, this may seem more like a "snow hurricane" rather than a blizzard.

Cities likely to be impacted by heavy snow for all or at least part of the storm include: New York City, Albany, Rochester, Syracuse, Binghamton, Scranton, Allentown, Reading, Williamsport and Burlington.

This was our first snowstorm right before x-mas. By the way it was only supposed to be 10 inches, it was more like 18 inches !

They're predicting 60 degrees by 1st weekend in March here. That means Bristol should be in the the mid to upper 50's at the same time.

If we get the 8 inches that is predicted here in extreme north eastern MD, that would be 90 inches in my area so far this year. Holy S@#%, that's 71/2 ft. Still another month to go!!!:cry:

High winds and lots of rain in southern NH. Lost power at 9PM, still no power. Many trees down in the area, lots of roads closed and blocked by the downed trees and the wires they pulled down with them. I was luckey I was behind a guy who had a chain saw in the back of his pickup, so he would get out and cut enough of the downed trees so we could get by.

But no snow! We've had very little snow here compared to other parts of the country!
