    Northeast gets clobbered with fourth snowstorm in 3 weeks

    The northeast is yet getting clobbered with a fourth Nor'Easter in the past 3 weeks. I feel badly for the folks in Boston and other shoreline cities right now. There are times when I envy those of you who live in the deep south where it rarely snows if at all.

    NEW YORK (AP) — Spring kicked off with a wallop of wintry weather along the East Coast as the fourth nor’easter in three weeks dumped more than a foot of snow in some places Wednesday.
    The first full day of the season included scenes of snow falling on blooming daffodils in suburban Philadelphia, New Yorkers twisting to fix blown-out umbrellas, tractor-trailers stuck on snowy highways and kids making their first snowman of spring.
    “I want warm! I’m done with the cold,” said Yana Damoiseau, a pedestrian in New York City.


    Airlines canceled more than 4,000 flights, tens of thousands of customers lost power from West Virginia northward, and school districts throughout the Northeast called off classes ahead of the storm. At least two traffic deaths were reported in New Jersey and on New York’s Long Island.
    Up to 8 inches of snow had fallen in some Philadelphia suburbs by the evening, and more than a foot near Allentown, Pennsylvania. New York had at least 5 inches and braced for a total of 6 to 12. Forecasters said Boston could get 6 inches as the storm moved into New England.

    Think 3rd party for 2024 folks. Clean up America.

    Once I tell you that we agree to disagree there will be no more discussion between us in the thread so please don't waste your time continuing to argue your points because I will not respond.

    Feel sorry for us. We have a frost warning overnight.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.

    As bad as that is, the rain hitting California is actually worse. The Pineapple Express is an airborne river that's causing flash floods and mudslides (especially in those areas that had the fires). There is still snowpack in the mountains, so all of that water is not being absorbed into aquifers. California is in for more massive property damage and even fatalities.
    In quoting my post, you affirm and agree that you have not been goaded, provoked, emotionally manipulated or otherwise coerced into responding.

    It's snowing here, but I am in the Southern Appalachians.
    It's ok if you disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    Let's pray that the damage is as little as possible and that no deaths occur.

    The 6 inches we got yesterday was almost gone at day's end. Today, whatever is leftover will be gone. 50 today and 62 tomorrow. The wooly worms were right again.
