Oh yes, I'll second that. Went out for a ten mile spin on the river
after work tonight in the little boat. It's been cool this week but
OK on the water with a sweatshirt and light jacket. Tomorrow we'll go
for a ride on the Grand Banks.

Good luck to you folks from New England to the Mid Atlantic States. A
strong nor'easter winter storm is on its way this weekend.



Just checked the National Weather Service forecast for our area up north.

The marine forecast:

A POWERFUL AND DANGEROUS WINTER STORM WILL DEVELOP SOUTH OF NEW
ENGLAND SATURDAY NIGHT...AND THEN TRACK SOUTHEAST OF NANTUCKET SUNDAY
MORNING. VERY STRONG NORTHEAST WINDS OF 30 TO 40 MPH WITH GUSTS TO 65 MPH
ARE POSSIBLE SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY. THESE STRONG WINDS WILL LIKELY
GENERATE A STORM SURGE OF 2.0 TO 2.5 FT SUNDAY MORNING...ALONG WITH SEAS

OF
25 TO 30 FEET ON TOP OF THE SURGE.


The snow forecast:

SNOW WILL TAPER OFF EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. TOTAL ACCUMULATIONS OF 1 TO 2

FEET
ARE EXPECTED OVER A LARGE AREA...WITH THE HIGHEST AMOUNTS ALONG THE
IMMEDIATE EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS COAST...AS WELL AS CAPE COD AND THE

ISLANDS.

It's times like this that I really appreciate Florida in the winter.

We're supposed to get 6-9 inches here in northern Virginia also. Had
to stock up on meat for stew and chili. Got lots of firewood. Hell,
let it snow!


We got 12 inches in northern Delaware.

My girlfriend, who lives in NE Mass., was digging out from under two
feet. One of my coworkers, from Framingham, Mass., who has Huskies,
told me his dogs jumped out the back door and centered out on the
snow--their feet did not reach the ground.

JimH,
I think here in Michigan it's called a Westerner. At least that's where
it's coming from.
