57F here now... so a 33 degree bump so far.

Wife and I went this morning... awesome conditions. Still had 25 of 27 trails open, but you can tell it is getting thin in spots. This week will do damage. Bluebird

24F here. Should be a nice 35+ swing today

No. Read my post

Not exactly. The state agency that is overseeing theme park openings recommends that parks enforce mask usage and space riders apart on rides like coasters in order to help mitigate spread. ‘Face covering usage and/or modifications to seat loading patterns will be required on amusement park rides to mitigate the effects of shouting. Additionally, on rides, guests generally face in one direction.' “CAPA has never suggested or recommended limiting shouting, yelling, or screaming on an amusement park ride," Disneyland should be opening towards the end of April... WDW in FL has been open since last July.

This has happened to us a few times. Usually not to the extent of Tauntonnosnow

For my district our biggest concern right now isn’t the kids in the classroom when they come back 100%. It is the lunches. We have a cafeteria naturally. Right now we spilt the students for lunches into either the cafeteria or the gym. So instead of 300 in the cafeteria per lunch we have around 50 each in the gym and cafe. We have around a third of our population doing full remote and in the hybrid model we only have half of the kids present I. The building. When they all come back that will make the gym and cafe not large enough to hold them since you still need the 6’ since they will be eating maskless. Not sure how it will work. More lunch periods I guess?

It’s weird. Our local union is pretty much get back in as soon as possible. Teacher from other districts I know are looking to be in 100%. I think leadership of our state union will be largely changed when their term is up. Our state president turns my stomach.

Kids in person are rarely just on laptops in Mass. some maybe I rarely have the kids use their laptops (some simulations I would have used a computer lab for in the past).

Yep.

In person vs virtual being better is different depending on the student and the implementation. For most kids it (virtual) isn’t as good. This has also widened the gap between haves and have nots in many cases

For my school the remote kids have a separate group of teachers. For my wife, they watch her teach from home while she is with the kids in person. I’ve been enjoying doing hands on labs with my students since February. Lots of adjusting and retooling. But getting it done. It’s sad how many kids who are supposed to come into the building stay home and do nothing. That’s on the parents

If I never do another Google Meet again I will be so happy

My daughter’s school (hybrid now) will be full in person 3/29. My wife has been in with her students full in person most of the time since the fall. Im in hybrid now but will have all kids back by 4/28. Families may choose to stay remote. still lots of things to figure out but we are getting there

Yeah... it is a hike. Almost 5 hours from me. Not to be taken lightly. Someday I hope you get there and experience it.

The Loaf is just a whole different world... such good memories, especially Reggae Weekend

It's dead, Jim

I only care about when Jerry does... he knows... But yeah. I recall you posting that and was hoping it wouldn't come true... alas

Wow... Jerry probably hasn't posted Roy this early since 2012 But there it is...

BDL is at -0.5F (as per NWS climo report) before today ORH -0.4F PVD -0.5F BOS + 0.3F Warmth returns for a while

It has definitely been cold enough to support snow many days. But it wasn’t meant to be. Bring on the warmth!

South was best for this.

And when I went to bed at 9:30 there was none here.

When I got up at 4:30AM and let out the dog it was gone.

Maybe there were some flurries overnight. Nothing OTG here. Dry windy and cold.
