knee deep snow. I lived on Fort Devens at the time. Snow drifts were good for cooling the beer.

the liquor store part is about right. I have friends and relatives in southern NH and way out on the cape, the local reports say that enormous waves for inside Mass Bay are expected, waves that wold be normally expected on the ocean side will be inside the Bay, that's gonna leave a mark.

Which means he pulls out his hair.

And he can't drink cuz he's a recovering alcoholic.

Fortunately, he lives in a dorm and isn't going anywhere.

NOVA is northern VA.

Rain, that's all we're getting and not all that much of it.

The map is right, it just needs shifted north by 200/300 miles or so.

The local liquor store has a sale, and you get a $50 rebate on a case of Stoli.

And, if we don't have a hurricane, who cares!

Guess I will have to hit the liquor store before things get really bad today. We have been warned to stay home today and schools and businesses are closed. Boston seems to be ground zero for this storm.
