UMass said they are "encouraging" faculty and staff to get it, but not requiring it

Daughter just got an email from UMass Amherst that all students will be required to be vaccinated for the Fall semester. Not sure about other campuses, but I'd assume it's a system-wide policy. Email also confirmed full, in person classes and residence halls. Didn't say anything about testing or masks, but that will likely be ironed out this summer. Very happy for her...she spent her entire sophomore year home taking all classes remotely. That sucks Have to think most colleges (in the northeast anyway) will require vaccinations for the Fall

Had my 2nd Moderna shot on 3/29. Sore arm and a little tired but nothing bad at all. Me, my wife and my daughter(19) are all fully vacced. None of use had any adverse side effects. My son(14) will get the shot as soon as it's approved for ages 12-16 shortly.

Just a cold windy misery mist now. Had about 2 hours of white rain. Congrats to those who got dumped on!

Lots of cats paws on the windshield here in Norton/Attleboro area. Temp is down to 38 on the car thermometer

Beautiful day in Newport with the family but my in-laws up in Cape Breton, NS are dealing with that ULL...was heavy rain and now a huge ice storm. Lots of damage up on their hill and no power.

You should get some quotes from local companies too. They will do a better job of explaining it to you as well. As long as you own the panels you get the SRECs. A company in CA monitors my system remotely and every time I generate 1MWh it it automatically creates a "solar renewable energy credit". It then sells it for me, keeps a small percentage, and sends me the rest as a direct deposit. I think I have corresponded with them three times in the last five years. Don't do or sign anything that doesn't allow you full and complete control.

Just got my 2nd shot of Moderna at Gillette. Holy hell is it windy up here!

The savings I get on my electric bill is nice, it I make way more money selling the renewable energy credits (SRECs). I use a company in CA that monitors it for me and sells my credits in the market when the price is high. I've been getting about $350 per credit (it used to be over $500) and usually make between around $2500 to $3k a year from it. My system is pretty small though. It's cool to get a direct deposit for hundreds of dollars 4 times a year for doing nothing. I've tried to buy Tesla powerwall packs. They are a fortune. It's also my understanding, as of the last time I checked, that Tesla won't sell Power walls by themselves...you can only buy them as part of a whole system. Not sure if that is still a thing though.

Own. We bought them straight up when they were installed. Not a huge system...18 panels , 4.5 KW. More than paid for themselves already and well worth the investment. Plus, I just bought a new EV car (Chevy Bolt), so I try only to plug it in on sunny days to charge it for free. Win win!

What a month for those of us with solar on their houses. I've had solar on my roof for 7 years and I already broke my record for March production last week and there's still 5 days left. I just checked and this March has also given me more production than any April as well. Good stuff Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Install before Thursday

61.....grilling by the (still covered) pool Please stop talking about Miller Bs!

Try to find circuit breakers (square d) or plastic electrical boxes. Nope

Same here. The price of Romex is out of control. I just bought 125 ft roll of 6/3 for $350. A roll of 12/2 is now $100. It's unreal

I have my 2nd Moderna on the 29th. Glad to hear it wasn't too bad. My parents both had the 2nd Moderna 2 weeks ago and had no effects other than a little fatigue. Cant wait!!

That so awesome. My 2nd is on 3/29 at Gillette. I can't wait

That's great! Did they schedule you for a 2nd dose?

It went right into the arm of the guy next to me

yes. I made my second appointment during the 15 minute waiting period after the shot. They gave me a card with a "special" web site. Got the email confirmation immediately for 3/29.

Just got my first vaccine shot at Gillette. Was able to make the appointment by "accompanying" my 75+ year old parents to their 2nd shots. Very smooth operation, in and out.

It's the same one. Starts in Plymouth

Driving on 44 now to Harry's in middleboro for takeout. Can confirm, 1/4m vis.... Dumping

A good 3" or so here after shoveling the stairs and walk. Snow has been accumulating much better in the past hour. Looks like we could pick up 2-3" maybe before it ends later.
