Just a comment from the East (Massachusetts)

Ordinarily we would have had 21" of snow so far in the year. The number
this year is 71" (and a bit more tonight, snowing now in fact)

As of 5:00 PM today at least 149 buildings in Mass. have had roof and/or
structural collapse due to the weight of the snow. No human fatalities but
a friend at MEMA tells me there were several cows killed by a barn collapse.

My son, who lives in LA called me this past Sunday. I always love hearing
from him but I don't know why he had to tell me he was lying on a beach with
some friends.

By the way, I think the snow is also messing up the eastern coyote breeding
season. I have seen several killed in the road and wonder if the snow is
making it harder for the coyotes to find mates.
