bq. _"I don't think it bears reminding of *how violent storms can be in November,*  considering what happened just a few years ago."_

bq. "#":http://www.toledotalk.com/cgi-bin/comments.pl/13/1601#12276 - ... when it comes to volatile weather for the Great Lakes region, I believe November is second after the March-April period. Floods, strong winds, heavy lake-effect snow storms, bitter cold, and warm temps are somewhat common occurrences in November. As one weather dude said, it's winter and summer fighting it out. 


bq. "#":http://www.toledotalk.com/cgi-bin/comments.pl/20/3206#44654 - A few Novembers ago, the northeast Ohio snowbelt got hammered with a multi-day lake effect snowstorm that dumped snow amounts that were measured in feet not inches. And we're only a few days away from the four-year anniversary of the deadly tornados that hit western Ohio.  In the Great Lakes region, I don't think any other month produces the weather extremes like November. To a meteorologist, November is a fascinating time.
