Ok here, but we need more rain.
In typical thunderstorm fashion its hammered some areas and totally missed others.
I think Vinces side of the city copped it.

I guess the other extreme is Buffalo NY that is getting up to 2 meters of snow.

Winter storm plus the lake snow effect from Lake Erie combined to give 7 to 8 feet of snow in parts of Buffalo NY yet 5+ miles away they did not receive a foot of snow accumulation. Its supposed to warm up to almost 60F after the storm passes so there is likely to be flooding.

Yeah, we've had some January temps already and it's only November. It was 19*F the other morning at 6:20AM when I went to the gym.
This keeps up and it's going to be a hard winter.

Ok out my way, we just caught the edge, again thank god.
A bit of wind and around 15 mm of much needed rain.
Brisbane got smashed, literally, lots of hail damage minor flooding and 500 power lines down, quite a few buildings without roofs from 140 kmh winds.
Not sure if well hear from Vince this morning due to power outages.
Hell chime in when he can.
Edit 39 people injured, 12 hospitalized, no known fatalilities thankfully, around $50,000,000 dollars damage as an early estimate.
