BWI is now one solid storm, or a couple smaller events away from hitting climo for the first time in 10 years!

it was really good--I tried making it via the pressure cooker as something new and it was excellent.

Speaking of Feb 2nd, I have it on good authority that Punxsutawney Phil will predict six more weeks of glaciers!

I was so prepared for the potential of power going out with this storm. I ran the generator yesterday (after draining the carburetor and cleaning it out), gassed it up with plenty of extra gas at the ready, and had it all staged and ready to go. I had all batteries and wireless chargers charged up, plans in place for keeping as warm as possible for a few days, etc. In the grand scheme of things, I'm really glad I didn't need to put any of that plan into action, but it *is* a little bit of a bummer that I couldn't at least have seen some of that that hard prep work put to good use!

With progged wind gusts to 30 mph most of the day tomorrow, there's a non-zero chance of losing power.  Would've been a lot more dicey with larger ZR accretions from this storm, but certain areas around here lose power when someone sneezes.
