A Few Storms May Be . . .

Well, you know . . .

The month of October is turning out to be lethal.  I had a very nice day today, and my mother and I enjoyed a nice harvest festival in Chester, New Jersey, but it's going to get a little stormy tomorrow and Tuesday.  But that's not what I'm worried about.  On  Wednesday, it could get a lot stormy, with AccuWeather warning of a "potentially very disruptive" series of severe thunderstorms that could "pack a punch."

Yeah, we've heard this before. But we've seen this before, too; several storms have hit New Jersey and have packed a punch - a Mike Tyson-style punch - in the past couple of years, and a few have affected my immediate area. So, even though weather forecasters have cried wolf more recently - as indicated on this blog - the wolf is still possibly at the door.

And maybe a lion.  As if that all weren't unnerving enough, one meteorologist - Joe Cioffi on WPIX-TV in New York - has hinted, based on computer models, of a coastal storm that could hit the Northeast within two weeks.  A hurricane?  A nor'easter?  Well, they're both nasty.   And it seems that late October and early November has become the best period for the sort of storms that can ruin your whole day . . . or your whole week.

Now - do you really think there's no such thing as climate change? :-O
