    Took Bastardi off twitter!!
    High ratios, high winds, bitter cold make the threat of shut down blizzard very real IMO. Most storms out to sea correct west, so if this does, should not be a surprise, and in fact I have been counting on it simply cause of known global model bias.(would be coup for Canadian!).

    starting to put SE New Eng. in the jack pot, after HATING ICE, SNOW COMES IN SECOND. I HATE BLIZZARDS !!!

    Great. I have to drive into Cambridge MA to meet a plumber between 12 and 4. Maybe I can camp out at my son's in Malden overnight.

    I expect to be heading down to the Cape tomorrow. Haven't seen ice in Hyannis harbor before. I have seen ice floes going through the canal, however.

    Don't think I'm driving into Cambridge tomorrow, the weatherman is using the B word, 12+ inches expected. Thinking creatively about how to foist my commitments onto someone else.

    yeah - I'm sure lots of folks will be out buying the needed ingredients for their milk sandwiches.

    I just gassed up the snowblower. I have my 2-wheel log dolly loaded with wood, and will be rolled inside tonight.

    I sure wouldn't try to get to Cambridge, or anyplace else tomorrow.

    Oh, and diapers! Only had a few of those left this morning. Daughter is torturing my wallet with potty training, then regressing multiple times.
