Current Snowfall.
In Tuckerton, New Jersey 7.4 inches 1:37 a.m.
31�° Fahrenheit.
Anticipated amount 16-18 inches.
(Ending By Mid-Saturday)
...
Missile Flakes navigate for resting places within Godly Grace's!
Distant puncturing landings upon marked spots.
As crops cluster for redemption.
Valued thoughts currently escape in order not to be late?
Yes!
...
This is January and New Jersey at its Best?
And, at Best?
This Expected Guest will place a Thickening and Sickening coat of Wintern White.
Yes, that will continue throughout this night!
Perhaps this blizzard shall shut down the State?
Yes, and don't worry tomorrow morning on the roads to navigate?
Or, about going to work or being late!
...
Yes, Navigation across this South Jersey location?
Snow tires are tired of being chained and restrained!
Because this is already our third time in this dance!
Yes, because on this night of nights?
Our major connectors from Route 9 to the Garden State Parkway?
Yes, shall be "Blacked-Iced Tea Delight!"
...
Wait!
Batten down the hatches she's a gusher coming in from the Atlantic!
See?
Hurricane Sandy returning from the past with her cousin Mike?
Hold on tight!
...
Note: According to the Farmer's Almanac.
There's a 51% chance this Winter will be one of the most severe in New Jersey's history.
Now in order for that to happen?
(Besides the heavy snow that we've already had)
Yes, we will need it at least a 10-day temp drop to zero degrees!
I anticipated this beginning sometime in the first week of February.
Florida I'm coming!

Current snowfall 11.5 inches
23° Fahrenheit
Wind gusting at about 15 mph
...
As I went out this morning at 9:00 a.m. Most of the current businesses that I frequent?
Yes, and normally at 5:00 a.m.
We're closed.
Including Dunkin' Donuts, Retro fitness Gym, along with the Dynasty Diner.
...
As I was walking in the blizzard I was forming what I would write.
Along the 1 mile tread back once Tuckerton officer who knew me, asked if I was all right.
He said the only thing open in town was Wawa.
The walk wasn't bad I was fully dressed and prepared for it with two coats on including an LL Bean over a leather flight jacket.
...
Dreaded tread, pathway markings of the past.
Pickup trucks and County vehicles with plows.
Silence nothing but the wind as I could taste the flakes upon my chin.
...
Slow movement slippery When wet!
But soon again tonight
Yes, a frozen pathway I bet!
The winds were singing Sweet Chin music to me.
The freshness of the air exhilarating!
...
As I came to my first location.
(Dunkin' Donuts)
It was dark and gloomy no one inside and no roomie for me in a cup of coffee?
Prepared for a workout Alexis said Retro fitness open at 7:00 a.m..
Disappointed again!
...
I continued forward praying that perhaps the dynasty Diner would serve me my bowl of grits?
Less than 5 minutes later?
No luck for this alligator!
...
The wind seem to be laughing at me as I turned around I had back home.
"There's No Place like Home!"
"There's No Place like Home!"
"There's No Place like Home!"
My Sweet Dorothy!
...
Yes, it was all alone for me and my sachet with my writings.
Tiny tablets of snow crystals, coated the binders wiring circular spheres.
Everforward now plowing my own path watching a county plow go past.
With a nice light spray of you're in the way!
...
Now there's not much more I can say.
No need to get down on my two knees and pray.
Because I'm home safe now and okay.
...
Note:
The beauty of God?
Yes, as He busily creates?
Yes, on His Great Palate?
And, in basic White?
Covering our past transgressions?
And yes!
He does it each time so right!
