Christmas Bomb Cyclone Threatens East Coast With up to 3 feet of Flooding
New York Post ^ | December 22, 2022 | Natalie O'Neill

The powerful “bomb cyclone” storm now pummeling the Midwest is expected to strike parts of the Northeast on Friday — causing heavy rain and up to three feet of flooding in the New York area this holiday weekend, meteorologists warned Thursday.

Parts of New Jersey, Maine and Long Island are expected to be swamped by 1 to 3 feet of flooding followed by freezing during peak holiday travel times, said Fox Weather meteorologist Marissa Lautenbacher.

“This storm is very, very strong and has a deep cold air blast from the Arctic,” said Lautenbacher. “It’s going to have a big impact.” Rapidly strengthening Arctic winds are forecast to blow up to 60 mph from the Great Lakes region to Buffalo, New York, and in parts of New England beginning Friday, potentially knocking out power.

It’s changed over to rain here and the winds are really starting to pick up.

Our power co. sent out a notification that they expected power outages, which is hardly a surprise with the number of trees we have here in NH.

We still need to cut up and clear the ones that came down last week.

If we lose power, we lose internet as well.

I'd have to say my favorite film (short film) is "Sheos".

Superb acting. Brilliantly directed.

It truly left an impact on me.

Does mail run during this artic air extravaganza. Seems a bit harsh to deliver mail with negative 40 wind chills

“Bomb cyclone” ... sounds so much more ominous than “snowstorm” ... great for a headline.

Weather reports says light rain until noon, followed by clearing. Am I missing something?
