They might even cancel anyway. My son was considering coming home. Class ends 1215 on Friday, telling him drive around. We shall see if he follows through. He is very unpredictable.

Hurricane master, next time you have Jim Cantore on the bat phone can you do me a favor and ask him if Stefanie Abrahams puppies are real? Inquiring minds need to know, tia

You dont like the puppies?

Interesting watch. Looks like the cold water really saves you.

To keep reinforcing the impacts even with the center well east of Cape Cod…here’s the 12z GFS ensembles. The map to the right is the ensemble mean sustained winds 8am Saturday. 45-50mph sustained is the mean…expect gusts over hurricane force. This will be very impactful for E MA.

I also have concerns the coastal damage has the potential to rival the Perfect Storm.

Preparations should be underway.

Well maybe if they moved.
