As the storm begins to clear, wind will shift and come from the Northwest (Center Harbor to Alton.) We deal with that all the time. Everyone knows exactly what happens at his or her own location when we get hit with strong NW winds, because they're so common in fall and winter. Therefore I don't need to point them out.

I can see the wind eating away at the ice in Alton Bay today. Before the storm, the ice was past Echo Point. Now there are white caps in the bay, and the leading edge of the ice has been pushed well South of Echo Point, even though the temperature is in the teens.
