>Across the Northeast, strong, whipping 40 to 50 mph winds roared in from the northwest bringing damage to sports stadiums, trees and cut power to residents of State College and surrounding areas of Center County, Pennsylvania.

At the Accuweather building in State College, Pa, power was lost but luckily back up meant their communication to the outside world was not compremised..

Meanwhile, it’s all about the heat that continues in Florida as Miami and other cities across the state break early October records at the same time a major early October Arctic Outreak is ready to smash records across the Northern tier between Thursday and into early next week.

I leave at 4.30 tomorrow morning for a day trip down to Oxfordshire, South England so I shall likely not be posting again until Friday morning as I will be tired from driving and not home until late as it’s roughly 800 miles round trip.

More on the coming Arctic blast on Friday!

Thanks for reading.
