The Storm of the Century

It started snowing here in Bangor, Maine at approximately 7:00 AM yesterday morning. It hasn't stopped yet. This is day two, and a storm that the weatherman said should be coming to a halt has shown no signs of letting up. The snowfall total as of this morning was roughly 16". By the meteorologist's speculation, maybe up to a total of 2 more inches were to accumulate today. Yeah, right!

It has been snowing all day and there is a winter storm warning up until 9:00 PM tonight. We have added another 8" bringing our total up to about 22" in one fell swoop. It has been snowing almost nonstop for 48 hours. I have been hard at the snowblower and shovel in a vain attempt to keep ahead of it.

I fought the snow, and the snow won.

That's it. I'm waiting until it's all done before step foot out my door again.

Weathermen...
