Nasty Weather

We’ve got some nasty weather going on outside, to the extent that I’ve decided to recharge my phone and computer in anticipation of possibly losing power. Heavy rain, sleet, high winds and thunder right overhead.

I was going to go house hunting in the east mountains tomorrow, but that’s the part of the state referenced in this sentence, “The strongest winds are expected along and east of the central mountain chain where gusts over 75 mph are possible.” They are also calling for snow in the mountains.

The route from Santa Fe to the east mountains isn’t the main freeway – it’s a back highway along the east side of the mountains that I’m not very familiar with. So I’m thinking I should postpone.

Also I’m gearing up for a migraine due to the pressure drop, although the migraine my not occur until Thursday because there is typically lag time of a day or so after the pressure drop. “This weather event is historic in terms of plunging low pressure, which is expected to drop as low as 969 millibars, fueling a rapidly intensifying storm with hurricane force winds…“This is what we call bombogenesis, where the pressure drops 24 millibars in less than 24 hours,”
