  1. Please RAI …. Don’t do it …… As always …..
  2. Agreed, a strange sequence. I shoveled the inch or so of accumulation and treated the stairs and walk. Some other folks may have figured that our usual warming would do the job for them. The consistent 20’s and light rain with a very brief after period of larger flake snow dictated otherwise. Below are photos of my row house steps a few hours after shoveling and treatment. The evergreen shows further evidence, with sagging branch ice accretion. I hope the next event is purer as to whatever type of precipitation occurs. Stay well, as always.
  3. Things could be worse. Stay well, as always ….
  4. Good afternoon frostfern. I agree and understand having a splay foot with a 7E width on one and 6E on the other. I was advised to purchase the largest width I could find, which was 6 E. I was also advised to buy one size larger than my actual. In my case I bought size 9. I have to say, for me and being in my 8th decade, it worked. The extra size gave me the additional width I needed and yet the shoe did not feel loose to the foot. Stay well and warm, as always …. .
  5. Flakes falling with a brisk wind over the postage stamp. My seniors best temperature gauge is betting against any quick accumulation. Stay well everyone, as always …. IMG_7089.mov
  6. Good morning WIN. I go back to the 50’s and 60’s. A heavy snow warning was given for an anticipated 4 inches of snow. Early TV forecasts by Dave Garroway and Jack Lescoulie were Quite different from today. Stay, as always.
  7. Good morning everyone. As per NOAA/NWS, CPK had 15 hours of measurable precipitation, total 1.95”. 1.47” occurred during a 6 hour period between 18:51 and 00:51. Lowest barometric pressure, 982.1/29.03 reported at 04:51. Highest wind/gust, E15/G30 reported 19:51. On a lighter note …. After reading Will’s response to Walt in the January thread ….. we may have to sink that buoy. Stay well all, as always. ….
  8. Good afternoon SMLI. I just read that the last light keeper, in the nation, has retired. She was at the Boston Light. I pray you have many years left for your dream to come true. Chronologically mine will always remain as a dream until I can dream no more. May you reach your light by rail, someday. As always …..
  9. Good morning v_e. I had to look up slap skateboarding. I was relieved to find that it’s a wonderful pastime for the young and fit. When I first read it, I had U Tube visions of Will cruising around slapping folks at random. Stay well, as always ….
  10. Gravity that, by far, is one of the more interesting takes on Patrick Henry’s statement. Stay well and calm. As always ….
  11. Good afternoon bgms. My dream was to live, close to a lighthouse, somewhere on the NNE coast. Even though such a reality is surely gone, the dream will always remain. As always ….
  12. Good morning nk, BJV. The excitement, at least for NYC metro, was the possibility of ending the time length of the CPK -1 inch snow accumulation record. The words used, such as in the photo below did not match the textual content of the piece. Probability is necessary word usage even if, to folks like myself, it is a comfort word. Stay well, as always …
  13. Good evening BxE. Might be a bit extreme but I understand your reasoning. Stay well, as always …..
