Weather report from Maine
I don't say "Maine Weather" because this isn't Maine weather at all. I
look at the radar animation this morning and it shows the heavy rain just circling directly above us like a boot heel grinding on our hopes. Poor Skip and Lydia. Seldom in the course of human nautical events have so few sailed so far for so little. The long range forecasts show the same weather we've had for the last 40 days and 40 nights continuing out as far as the models can see. The best it seems we can hope for now is for one of those two tropical disturbances out in the Atlantic to turn into something and break the monotony with stronger winds and even more rain. We're leaving Thursday morning for a 10 day cruise. There's the promise of a few hours of sun on Saturday and then back to the steady drizzle and showers. I'm starting to get phone and email inquires for 150 x 50 cubic wooden hulls with provisions for hundreds of animal pens and loading ramps that will accomodate up to two elephants side by side. I'll answer them when I get back if the water hasn't gotten up to the office floor yet. -- Roger Long |
