Weather Storms with the size and power of Hurricane Sandy
are statistically very rare due to the unlikely convergence of
unique circumstances, that for purposes of this
topic, can be boiled down to two major systems.


The first is of course, the original Hurricane Sandy
which has already had a devastating record of
death and destruction as it has traveled north-bound
from the Caribbean, up the East Coast of the U.S.A.
Over 50 fatalities, so far...

The second and compounding factor, is the collision
with Sandy and a "Nor-Easter" which is a powerful northern
cold weather system on its own.

Together, in very basic terms, there is a synergistic and very
powerful amplification of the worst destructive aspects of these two
systems to create what many weather experts have called
"The Perfect Storm".

Like it or not, Tremblant is on the trajectory for the tail end of
the storm and we feel it may actually benefit our winter season.
