Anyone else recovering from an arboreal assault? We had trees rip the power lines right off the side of our house

Likewise, in CT. The shoreline (I live just outside New Haven) got snow & wind, but nothing too crazy.
Further north (up by Hartford), they got 12-24" of snow in <24 hrs.
There are some 750-800k people still out of power. One death, across the whole stormfront, as far as I know.
Okay, well, try to keep it that way!
Or reduce it if you can. I don't know.
I got hit in Maryland with a snowstorm on Saturday which knocked out the power for multiple hours. Never found out how, as I just ended up going to work (which had power).

LOL. it is freaking late Oct. This is not a freak storm. We in Colorado got hit by the same thing LAST week and it did the exact same thing. The front range got more snow than the ski resorts and we had people without power for a week all along the front range.
The only freak thing about this is Snow should be falling in Sept and the tree's should not have their leaves so late. but the unusual weather tree's have not shed the leaves. So when a wet heavy snow comes, it causes damage to the tree's
Good luck on the clean up, we still are out here.

FINALLY got a good hard frost this morning. I actually got cold on a ten-minute ride. No storms or snow or tree's down, of course. This is OREGON,* not Kansas. And . . . I haven't checked the news, but I think the rest of Ecotopia is pretty mild right now too.
*Where "OREGON" means the Willamette Valley - the only Oregon worth mentioning.

Kansas has been 64 or so all week. We never got more than a bit of breeze from the storm.

Global warming. Global warming, is what it is.

It should get to the low 30's tonight and we might get some flurries tomorrow and the weather peeps say it wont get much warmer than the mid 50s if that makes you feel any better.
Though we should be back to the 60's by the weekend.

It's my fault for making all these generalisations. But the high all week was around 66, so we're not that disparate.

Really? All we got was wind and really cold rain. I thought the whole thing was pre hype. It's not good that y'all lost power, but at least the panic wasn't all for naught.

We got maybe 3 inches of snow, power went down 5 pm Saturday, was still down when I left after 7 pm. Neighbors had power but several diverse houses (including the bar up the road) also lost power. A friend was in New Jersey and they got six inches I'm told. Guess it picked up steam after it left B'more.
Meanwhile, in Sweden, I did today's paper-route wearing shorts and a t-shirt. In November. At night.
