My son called us yesterday, Boston was closing up early due to the snow.
That is pretty bad, when Boston sends people home for a snow day.

then. What was your total for the day.

The weather here is very fine indeed, come on down.

I've been carrying around a spare Furuno chart plotter on the GB
because it was on sale at a good price last year and thought that I'd
network it into the lower helm at some point. Last week I decided
that its proper role during the winter would be on our SeaRay runabout
and ordered a separate GPS antenna and mounting kit. Yesterday
afternoon, after getting all that installed and working, it seemed
fitting to go out for a sea trial (any excuse will do). The weather
was near perfect and the sea trial turned into a 65 mile run down the
Caloosahatchie River, up Matlacha Pass on the east side of Pine
Island, around Bokeelia on the north end, over to Boca Grande on the
Gulf, past Cayo Costa Island, Cabbage Key, Useppa Island and back home
via the Gulf Coast ICW. The boat was running well, averaging 26 to 28
kts and conditions were just ideal. Oh yes, the Furuno worked very
well also but is somewhat overkill for the job.

Hmm....79 in Charleston. I'm headed to Charleston Harbor Marina to
hook up a LONG HF/SSB whip on a 46' sloop's stern, then, we'll drink
up his excess beer in the warm sunshine in the cockkpit and swap sea
stories...(c:)

I'm sitting at Huddle House eating lunch, typing this into my home PC
via remote desktop I just got running on my Nokia N800 Internet
Tablet on its bluetooth folding keyboard.

Life is grand....

Somewhere between 10 and 12 inches. Heavy slush on the bottom, then solid,
wet snow ... the worst kind.

Out cable provider caries the major networks out of Boston.
I couldn't believe the stories...people taking 5 hours or more to get
home... some running out of gas and just abandoning their vehicle on the
freeway etc.
Even a bunch of kids were trapped in their school until 2100 hrs before a
school bus arrived to take them home.
We've been getting small amounts of snow almost every day and expect a fair
bit tomorrow. Moncton, about 150 miles west of here, might get as much as
40 cm.

They are forecasting showers this afternoon, and a wet week ahead. About 50
degrees right now. Was 39 at 8:30 last night when driving home.
