Default Blizzard prediction...

Once again the weather forecasters got it wrong in southern Maine anyway, we got 8" to 12", with very strong sustained winds, low wind chills, and luckily, our high tides weren't abnormal. I did some plowing, and drove my 911 in some snow, but this storm was not as strong as forecasted. One pic shows the tread from my Blizzaks.

Guess I should have found a single tread print.

We're still waiting for our first snow here! It's unbelievable to me that so much of the east coast is buried and we have none! It was 50 degrees here today.
