Yup. We got an early wet snow of about 8 inches with some areas getting up to 19 inches. With all the trees that came down, our power has been off since 1pm on Saturday. I've been able to heat the house running a generator but we have no water. Staying at the in-laws tonight so I have have access to the web and I have to go into work tomorrow so I'll have web access there. So far they are estimating Thursday before they get the power back on for some 5 to 6 thousand residents here in my area of New Jersey.

Never thought anything would keep me from haunting my house for Halloween but Mother Nature thought differently!

Yeah, what's with the white stuff? Did your can of spray on snow explode? It is not Christmas time yet... I don't get to see much snow down here, I just keep riding my bike to work, etc...

It's all over the place. We've just had a dumping in early November - and we're in the Southern Hemisphere :(

And we were snowed on in Lebanon a couple of days ago much to our surprise. We were up at 2500m or so, but the locals told us they didn't expect snow for another month.
