I'm conscious that aside from our own weather woes this weekend, that our cousins across the water are taking a bit of a pounding at the moment. How are people doing over there - noting particularly the disproportionately large classic LR population in Nantucket and other areas of the Easter US?
Best wishes for all and hope things aren't too difficult.

Please see my post on Picture of the  Month.  I entered it a few moments ago.  It was a tough storm.  Thank goodness power returned within 24 hours on Nantucket.

Is a bombogenesis when they have run out of superlatives and have to make up a new one?

I think its a development of the term "bomb cyclone" which is an established meteorological phrase i gather.

I could never understand overdoing superlatives. I remember JLR launching the Range Rover Ultimate and thinking - well that's it then, nowhere to go after that!

Easy, they just call the next one the RR Ultimate 2 and so on.   The one I enjoyed was when Jeep badged theirs as "Limited".

I spent 25 years living in upstate NY. I certainly do not miss those winters.

When courting the Mrs 34058 to be, who hails from Boston MA (although born in Hackensack NJ) I remember a winter like this.  The power lines around where she lived had been brought down by the weight of the ice on them.  The ice had built up to about 2" diameter around the cables which then broke under the weight.  The icicles on the power poles had to be seen to be believed.

Series II content: when she visited the UK my SII was our dating mobile.  She still likes going out in it now, 36 years later.  True love!
