All is Calm here on the Northern Front

We live practically in Canada. Which means of course we get snow and all that jazz when the weather gets crazy. It also means we're used to weather weirdness. We have always owned a generator and have a nice portable device that can charge cell phones if needed. And of course, there is always the small propane lantern as well for throwing lots of light.

Despite what Frumpy* the Your News Now Weather girl said about today and the "unsettled weather" we have a bit of sunshine this am after the storm. Turns out Sandy was just a tease up here. Kids went to school, we're drying out, and have a double rainbow!

New York City which is significantly downstate from here is not so lucky it appears. And the rough part about the city is they are not prepared for weather like us country folk. Keep them in your thoughts & prayers as their city turns into Venice, Italy.

*Oh and Frumpy? She is normally dead nuts on as far as the weather goes, despite her fashion choices. We'll give her a break today. I'll take a rainbow anytime over "unsettled" weather patterns.
