Athena the Storm
As Athena is the well known Greek Goddess of courage, civilization and wisdom. But now her name is now taken a new turn. The weather channel has started naming storms this year. They name the after storm of hurricane Sandy, Athena. The Storm Prediction Center has said there is going to be very heavy snow falling at a heft rate of one inch per hour. That's a lot of snow. Temperatures will be below 30, which won't be so bad for all those people who have already no power, they're used to a cold house by now. But with heavy snow comes with the collapse of tree branches and power lines, with winds gusts up to 40 mph. The whole shore line has already taken a beating. And now they just need to survive the incoming heavy rain, overnight snowfall and gusts of wind up to 65 mph. It's going to be another rough haul.
