So as I'm sure some of you already know, a new Nor'easter is swinging through the Atlantic states here in the US. Right now I'm working from home and the snow is coming down like soapflakes in an elementary school play. And we just had an intense and long-lasting rumble of thundersnow. If you don't know what that is, it's a rare weather phenomenon that's exactly what it sounds like -- thunder generated by a snowstorm. Apparently it's happening all through the storm, up and down the I-95 corridor and surprising and alarming even jaded New Yorkers. I know that until 15 minutes ago I only knew of thundersnow from reading about it... now I can check another item off my ill-defined and somewhat imaginary bucket list.
NBC New York's article on it from about half an hour ago.
