forecasters are calling today s nor easter the strongest storm yet. she was talking today about 70-mile-an-hour wind in some places, driving snow, tropical storm force winds pounding the coast. the intrepid jim cantore from the weather channel filed this earlier today on that dock in chattam, mass. reporter: this water here, which is kind of an intercoastal waterway out that way is what protects us from the 50 to 25 foot waves that are out there. and this dock obviously rises and falls when you get the tide coming in. look at this. horizontal snow caked on to the piling here. caked on in the tune of about three inches here. it s actually easier to measure it horizontally than it is laying on the ground. you really love, what would you do?
