Nor'easter

A nor'easter is an Atlantic storm usually associated with New England.  But yesterday's storm was of such intensity that it was felt all the way here in the Cleveland area.

Yesterday it rained heavily all day long.  By afternoon there was a lake in back of the house.

Then in the evening, the rain turned to snow.  I woke up this morning to this wintry scene.

I have not yet read any news about the effects of the storm on the Atlantic coast, but the forecast was for damaging storm surges.  So I will not complain about our brief return to winter.
