I thought they were predicting only a couple of inches of snow... Wow !

Quote:
The combination of heavy, wet snow, leaf-laden trees and frigid,
gusting winds brought down limbs and power lines.
At least three deaths were blamed on the weather, and states of emergency
were declared in New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts and parts of New York.

The storm worsened as it moved north, and communities
in western Massachusetts were among the hardest hit.
Snowfall totals topped 27 inches in Plainfield, and
nearby Windsor had gotten 26 inches by early Sunday.


"It's a little startling. I mean, it's only October," said Craig Brodur,
who was playing keno with a friend at Northampton Convenience in western Massachusetts.
