There's a little bit about them in this older NYT article shortly after the initial discovery but the state still hasn't disclosed the exact coordinates or any real details about the apparent walls. Hopefully someone gets the funding and approval to take a closer look at some point... it's been over 15 years so I'm not holding my breath. Had some brief periods of sleet earlier but nothing now. Tomorrow looks like an all-day 34F rain, lovely 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afaik, it's standard procedure (maybe even a legal requirement?) to keep sensitive archaeological sites under wraps until the relevant authorities have had a chance to poke around. It makes sense, would just be nice to actually get someone on the case. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juliancolton Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Switching gears, I've just had a look at the Euro for Monday morning and it's definitely a nice solution. While it's hard to ascertain snow amounts without forecast soundings, the .2"-.3" of liquid would amount to a general 2-4" given climo ratios... surface suggests a pasty appeal though. If that pans out, it doesn't get much better. Folks walking up on Christmas morning to a fresh Currier and Ives blanket of snow, but not enough to cause any serious travel issues, with clearing skies by noon. Literal perfection. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the best kind of snow, especially for Christmas. Would like the sun to come out a bit later in the afternoon though so it doesn't melt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
