Hello
Well, the power is finally back on. This is my final snow update, as the storm is finally over.
The power was out for most of the day yesterday, as the heavy snow made trees snap and fall on power lines. More than 18,000 were without power yesterday. There is still about 4,000 still out of power as of this morning ( Thur.).
Where I live, we recieved about
15 inches of snow. Some towns recieved over 2 feet of snow. This was a very heavy snow. It looks more like early February than late April. Although the temps are going to rise drastically over the next two days. It will take two days to get rid of most of the snow.
Today the temps will be around 50 degrees, and tomorrow the temps should get to around 66 and Sat. in the upper 70's. We will be going from winter to summer in two and a half days.
I should be back on the golf course on Sat. , so things should be back to normal by then. I am sure the spring flower will appreciate the warmer weather.
Yesterday, my wife and I spent over 2 hours knocking the heavy snow off of our bushes and small trees, trying to keep them from being damaged. The problem is, is that the bushes and trees have young leaves on them now, so the they collected the wet heavy snow, and were bent all over and some limbs snapped and broke.
Interesting weather to say the least !
Bless you all --- your Vermont weather man, saying good-bye for now - :rolling
