It's pretty cold outside...

 It's cold outside. It's 32 (the lowest we got was down to 30) degrees outside where I live. I don't know if we have hit 32 degrees before this month or September, but I don't think we really have(in Gaithersburg at least). Anyways, if you have been following the weather lately, you know that there's a hurricane happening right now: Zeta. Although what happened in Texas, Oklahoma, Arizona, and a little part of some other states are what you WOULDN'T expect. You would expect to get hit with rain... but instead, they got hit with snow, an ice storm, sleet; just winter weather. A lot of places were under a winter storm warning for 5+ inches of snow, others were in an advisory, some were in an ice storm warning to dump .3-1 inches of ice. That kind of hurt because they got this snow(not the ice storm though I don't like ice storms) IN OCTOBER. Plus, its happening in Texas. Well, the same thing happened during Hurricane Sandy in 2012. While most of the northeast that were affected by Hurricane Sandy got rain, WV(and the mountains in MD and the southern part of PA) got POUNDED with a snowstorm that brought over 24 inches of snow! Some people reported up to 3 feet, which is close to Winter Storm Jonas! And it happened on October too. So don't feel bad that they are getting winter weather this early, its because of the hurricane.


Also I am waiting for more winter forecasts to come out, so I can make a good post. Sorry I haven't been posting much lately.
