#Snowmageddon Day 2
Well we survived the night and thankfully did not lose power. About 10,000 others in the city have lost it.
City remains in state of emergency likely until tomorrow morning. Everyone is asked to remain at home, so that means my wife doesn’t have to go to work today. I’m working from home again.
Medical staff at the hospitals are essentially trapped there since no relief staff can get in.
We broke the one day snowfall record with 76.2 cm in 24 hours (that’s 30 inches) and it’s still snowing but at least not as heavy.
Sustained winds measured at 133 km/hour last night. That’s a category 1 (frozen) hurricane!
Last night we heard a bang against the side of the house. I suspect it’s a piece of my siding blown off my house. But it’s too bad for me to get out and check yet.
The wind was at the front of the house and has drifted almost all the way up my door. At least the door opens inward and shovels are inside. Pictures below. Note the cars across the road essentially buried.
