2026 severe weather

[Burnin Since 1991]

I think the worst of the storm is really any place that's going to get ice. I lived in Clarksville, TN while I was in the army and you could just about guarantee a little snow but mostly ice storms. Not a fan of ice.

The northeast is looking at 12-24+ inches of snow, but that's a fairly normal event for us. Wishing everyone the best!

It’s cold enough the snow will be powder too. It’ll blow away.

I hope so. Maybe finally good to use @begreen s suggestion of leaf blower snow clearing...
But I think not given that it'll be 20-26 tomorrow and a chance of ice....

I heard today that friends in Ontario Bowmanville are without heat. Their furnace broke. Their house is down to 10C inside. I don't know the full technical details, but they are plugging in electric heaters. It's a very old house, historic property, and I'm told it does not have new wiring/panel Very dangerous. They have a wood fireplace, but they say it will suck whatever heat they have right up the chimney.

HVAC on a weekend. Hope they have an insurance plan with a contractor! My youngest is a lic burner teck
Oil, Gas, Wood and pellets. He loves night and weekend calls. Pays him 2 to 3 times reg rates. I hope your friend can find someone
to check his system out.
Dam cold here ( Ottawa Area) right now -19 wind chill -30 tonight, light snow, temp -30 , and wind chill -35 to 40
Pellet stove running at 3/4 and wood furnace keeping the rest of the old house warm. Still will be cold tomorrow and somewhat milder on Monday with some snow, most likely 10 to 15 cm
