Heavy Rain, Snowmelt Could Cause Flooding on Christmas
Very heavy rain will arrive overnight and into Christmas morning. One to three inches of rain is possible. Wind gusts may reach 60 to 70 mph in some cases. Thankfully there are no leaves on the trees, but we still are expecting scattered power outages.
Don't panic yet.
This forecast is just for New England. (OK, you can panic now.)
Not only will there be plenty of watery mess, given the snow we have piled up all around—there's the possibility of a power outage. We take these things seriously in New England, as we are still using the electric grid the Pilgrims built.
If the power goes out, we'll wind up having peanut butter for Christmas dinner. Maybe I should lay in a supply of holiday sprinkles.
