Blizzard of 2005 in progress as we are now in the worst portion of this storm!!!

Short term (today through tonight): Record setting snowfall progged for Boston in a storm that should fall short of the bliz of 78 in the severity and duration of coastal flooding but overall we have just reviewed kocin uccellini vol ii p495 snowfall graphic and only somewhat less extensive 2-3 foot siege but this is dangerous and close to bliz of 78 snowfall!!!

Ku storm, comparing favorably aerial coverage 2 Ft plus, wait for final. And all this in 24 hours!!!!!

Pvd tipped it to blizz. Logan Now bliz. Please see wsw for recent details on the 8/hr band dropping swd thru Mass!

Power outages increasing. Pine trees laden with snow on S coast. inflatable dome for soccer stadium collapsed in pym county.

This is it for severity! its now. Combo S+, bs/ds nly winds of 35 to 55 kt with iso gust 70 kt, power outages. You see how bdl psf came back down. Eta/gfs on track with omega.

6 Foot drifts on Oak Bluffs per em!

Cli stats kudos for gathering/updating, neal strauss!

Our power is bouncing.

6:30 a.m. TV said we have 23" of snow. Can't tell because it is blowing so hard. Wind still howling and seems to be picking up.

Very beautiful. Scary. Can't see the end of the driveway.
