Up here in the northeast we are getting a nor'easter today which is being fueled by the remnants of Hurricane Wilma with heavy rains and winds in many areas. They are comparing it to the conditions that were dramatized in the movie "Perfect Storm" based on the storm of 1991. Although our damage nowhere near compares to that of our friends to the south who have been experiencing hurricane after hurricane, we have received more than 13 inches more rain than usual for the month, and many are experiencing power outages, flooding in basements, roofs leaking (that would be me), and raw sewage backing into basements by storm drains overfilling. They are predicting up to 7 inches of heavy wet snow for the Berkshire mountains of MA tonight. I'm dreading the coming winter.
