"Bomb Cyclone" Hits East Coast of the United States
For veterans of snow storms in the North East of the United States this week we have been hearing terms unfamiliar to us. My husband had to ask, “what is a Snow Bomb?” To which he was told it is a hurricane in a snow storm. The official meteorologic term they are using is “Bomb Cyclone” which was the first I have heard of such things. Apparently it is a mid-latitude cyclone that intensifies rapidly. … one expert was quoted as saying, “they just kind of explode”. It has the effect of instantly appearing and getting very strong. So within the snow storm there can be some explosive events. They are predicting it could be one of the most intense bomb cyclones in the east coast in decades. But whatever you call it the storm is here. High wind gusts and lots of snow are falling. 
Asher, our ten year old, was sent out for some documentation. See photos. The top picture is of our street. We should also mention it is bitterly cold, too. Asher showed me a very red finger that resulted after being exposed to the elements just long enough to capture some images.
We also have a few pictures taken from inside our home looking out. One of the effects of blustery winds is snow within our windows. We have old windows but I still never understood how snow gets inside a storm window. But such are some mysteries that for the moment remain unsolved.
If you are wondering what Kostin is doing? He is outside, too. He has not divulged what he is going to create…not sure if he knows yet. The kids were able to make snow forts for protection with each hiding in their cavern of snow only popping up to hurl a snow ball at the other fort.
Snow storms of this magnitude are amazing to me. They bring a bustling society to a halt. Families stay home and try to stay warm.
It also brings more time for quiet prayer. Keeping you all in prayer.
God bless you.
Your Friend in Christ,
Blythe
