  1. Just need to slow it down. That was always the idea. Buy time until effective treatments and vaccine are developed. Masks and social distancing help in that a bit. Not 100%. Testing helps slow down outbreaks a bit. Not 100%.
  2. That sounds pretty typical. It still will help with influenza even if it it doesn’t nail it. In 2004-2005 it was only 10% effective. Oof
  3. Jury is still out. Behavior might play a bigger role than the vaccine. But we get it anyway.
  4. Yeah. It looks odd with them raining down on the tapestry of white. Most of my oak leaves are down thankfully. Stick season will be here soon
  5. Im hopeful this year’s flu vaccine is effective. Plus there is some (albeit weak) evidence it might be helpful vs Covid-19 https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/a-flu-shot-might-reduce-coronavirus-infections-early-research-suggests/
  6. We still had snow OTG the following week. Our town postponed trick or treating for a week due to the high snow banks etc When we took our kids around there was still a decent amount of snow
  7. I’m trying to remember the days after the 2011 storm. I don’t recall it being very cold. My kids were sledding with leaves on the trees.
  8. My primary care doctor was thinking flu might be very low due to social distancing and masks.
  9. Near sunset yesterday it had partially cleared. The low light being cast on the snow and foliage of different colors and the sky made for amazing scenery. I was driving so couldn’t capture it but it was stunning
  10. I’m going with our daughter’s 6.5” measurement. I really didn’t think we would hit 4”. Oh well. The leaves will have to wait
  11. October 1979. That was probably the closest in your area
  12. One of my students measured 2.5" here in Leominster A friend reported 4" back home in Hubbardston, roads are a mess
  13. Light snow in Hubbardston. Coating
  14. For your hood prob 3AM or so? Agree on the dog walk
  15. I can't imagine Dendy ever having a meltdown... he might get mad that it is too cold or snowy for the chickens, but he won't melt.
