Trying to stay out of trouble. Deb, and most definitely ready for spring weather! The area where I live is what locals refer to as "Upstate NY". We got hit a week ago Wednesday with an 80 MPH wind storm. The county had over 100,000 without power, including well over 10,000 in the town that I live in. Over 20 roads were closed in town because of either the 241 trees that fell in roads, power lines in the roads or both. Homes had trees through the roof. Power companies from Montreal, New Brunswick, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Ohio and elsewhere came to assist. I was among the lucky ones, didn't lose power, had just one tree down in the back, two huge limbs and lots of brush.
Then, a week to the day later, Wednesday, March 15, the Nor'easter called Stella hit us with 20+" of snow -- heavy, blowing snow. Fortunately, the last of the people who lost power the week before got it back by the end of the day. I have a great snow plow contractor so no problems there. Roof contractors had already been busy placing tarps on roofs damaged from the wind storm. With the wind & snow out of the north coming across Lake Ontario, the north side of my roof was mainly clear but there were deep drifts of snow on the south side. The drifts were so deep, I couldn't get them with the "roof rake" and was fortunate to be able to get someone to come and shovel to prevent ice dams.
So, yes, bring on spring!
