I don't know if you guys are familiar with what went down up here in New Hampshire recently. But, we had a crazy snow storm...2 feet of snow in a lot of areas! Yeah, in October!

Tons of downed trees and power lines. There was I think 75 or so people found dead, and thousands left without power for days. I've never seen a snow storm do anything like this around here.

The trees still have leaves on them! Which I think was a large part of the problem. The leaves caught all that wet heavy snow, and brought down the tree with it. Crazy. Just sayin.

Luckily, my shop had power the next day. But it took 2 days for Comcast. Strange for October...

Wow, you got it worse than I did. Weather forecast said 10-15 inches in my area, luckily only accumulated about 5 inches. Didn't loose power or cable. In the town next to mine, they aren't expecting power back until next week. The leaves on the trees definitely did contribute to the lose of power.

Yeah, it got crazy here! I didn't really realize how bad it was until I drove to my shop in the morning. It literally looked like a hurricane came through here.

I got extremely lucky, cause I'm the only person I know that still had power. I had power at my shop, and at home...lucky me! Had to wait for phone, internet, and cable though.

My thoughts exactly. It already feels like winter started. It was strange today...cause it feels more like the start of spring. Snow is melting, trees have leaves, and it was warm and sunny. Messed up, ha.

I live above Philly and we got nailed pretty good. News said about 100,000 were out of power in just the tri county area.
Trees down everywhere....I used my telescoping rv brush to clean my trees off

Hey Kris,

This was quite a storm for many folks in the North East and up to 30+ inches which more than likely broke all sorts of records...

For me personally, I had about 2 inches and now it's all gone. :props:

We got snow on October 6th in Salt Lake. I drove home from SEMA through a snowstorm yesterday. It was dang chilly in Vegas on Friday and Saturday, so they may be getting it soon too.
