Another Storm! Curses Mother Nature

United States
March 6, 2018 10:28am CST
Another Nor'easter coming into our area tonight and tomorrow with snow totals anywhere up to 18 inches. It's going to be wet, heavy snow so it's anyones guess what we'll end up with. My daughter just went to Sams Club to get a few things we need and when she gets home we'll head out to the supermarket. I always have an abundance of toilet paper but we do need milk and snacks!!!!! Hopefully the store won't be overcrowded with anxious shoppers who are stocking up as if we won't get out again until May Once again the threat of power outages is what the forecasters are saying so that makes me uneasy because those who lost power with last Fridays storm are still without power. Keeping my fingers crossed that this storm is just hype and we'll breeze through just another snow event. For now, the sun is shining and it isn't all that cold. Well, it's cold but not freezing and just typical winter. So, that's what's going on in my little corner of the myLot world. How's things in your neck of the woods?

How does one keep warm when the power goes?

We used our fireplace and bought a generator. It's the pits not having heat or light.

I don't have a generator so keeping warm would be difficult. That's why I'm always nervous with storms like this

@DianneN I don't have a generator or a fireplace so I'm hoping we don't have an outage.

We are having a warm and sunny day today but the Nor'easter will be hitting our home in Connecticut.

I should really think about spending winters in Florida. I'm too old to deal with these winter storms

It going to be bad here in Pennsylvania but I don't think it will be as bad in CT. I don't have a generator so I really hope we don't lose power. I can deal with the snow but it's too cold not to have heat

@Marilynda1225 I hope you don't lose power, too. Do you have a fireplace?

Good luck! I'm from CT, did my grocery shopping this morning, filled my gas tank, went to the bank and now will hide out for the next day or two until this storm passes, hoping it is the last storm of the season.

Me too! I'm so sick of winter already. They are already issuing car be removed from streets by 7pm here in my town. I can deal with the snow but get nervous about losing power and not having heat. Hope you stay safe and warm up there in CT

Luckily we will just get rain I think. One of the benefits of living so close to the ocean—it keeps us too warm for snow sometimes.

Seems like we're in the path of this storm but you're lucky to only get rain.

Today has been a warm day, sunny and warm. It seems another cold front will come around the 20th of the month.

In New Brunswick they are warning us about Thursday afternoon and evening. I'm prepared for everything except a long power outage. How much heat will I get from my three candles.

No power and no heat ... We might both be in the same boat

I was going to ask how you keep warm but I've had my answer in the comments. I do hope your power doesn't go out.

Sorry to hear about the upcoming storm. It sounds like a biggie to me. It is sunny with beautiful blue skies. I was sitting outside on my deck this morning in shorts and a short sleeve shirt catching up on my notifications.

We are getting a Nor'easter today in New Jersey. Where I am 5-8 inches of snow expected. Makes Jack Frost want to warm up!
