January 21 8:24 EST - Light snow
The weather folks have come up with a new name for the cold, snowy weather we are having this week. Sometimes it is an "Alberta Clipper", now it is a Polar (or Artic) Vortex. For me it's just what can happen this time of year. For the record, the forecasts were accurate. Temperature was 28F (2C) when I got up this morning and is now 20F (-7C) heading for 3F (-16C). Prediction is 6 - 10 inches, we now have about 6 inches and the wind is blowing!
If you think this storm is bad,
check this blizzard from 1938!!!

Looks cold there Lew
I have shaken my head about the term "polar vortex."
Isn't it simply known as winter.
I think that some of the weather "people" have too much time on their hands. We have enough politically correct terms to remember without adding another one to the weather vocabulary.
Lovely photos of the snow.
Looks like you are in for a cold few days. Stay warm, my friend.
