I did not get any phone calls so if there are any down, they are not across the wires or on the house or other buildings. I'll know more in a few days.
I've got a dead ash that wants cutting, but I'm trying to put that off until the weather turns.
What if lollipops moaned every time we licked them?

Get out and take some snaps, Tramp. I could use a dose of Maine countryside. Heading up to visit Sarge tomorrow...maybe I’ll shoot a few if the rain’s not too oppressive.

We got hit hard in southeast pa. 3 barges broke loose on the Schuykill river. Then hit the Vine street overpass. Penndot is not to happy with a large crane wedged under their bridge. 100 yards down river in a frail septa bridge. Septa has stopped all trains into that part of the city.
Yesterday i made a trip to long island. from Ringos NJ. to Bridgewater all traffic lights were out. Long island was crushed and powerless.

Re: Northern weather
Step-mother's parents lived in Lindenhurst out on Long Island. I can remember going out the before they built Verrazano Bridge, had to take a car ferry. There were these guys that walked up and down between the cars selling soft pretzels they carried on a long pole. Best pretzels ever. Spent a few summers out in Southold, a few miles short of Orient Point. Did a lot of fishing, swimming, and reading. Otherwise, nothing but ducks and potatoes out there.
Re: Northern weather
In philly they carry their pretzels in a brown bag. Tucked up under their armpit.

This is southern Calif. weather 117 forecast for today and tomorrow and over 100 all week. I've never seen a forecast that high. And I'm driving to church right at the hottest time this afternoon and tomorrow coming home.

Hopefully not while wearing their wife-beater tee shirts...

I heard it was blazing hot out there. Are you guys having rolling power blackouts? Years ago my mates around LA said that was getting to be a problem when the temps went way up.

Yes power blackouts and our Communist goverment wants everyone to have a electric car, what a joke.
Re: Northern weather
Snow in Denver today, 38 degrees, late morning. Meanwhile, the Hagerstown Almanac predicts a temperate winter in the Mid-Atlantic zone with little to no snow.

I'm very glad to hear that. I surely do hope it turns out to be the case.
Re: Northern weather
Who puts any faith in the almanac, right? It's good for chasing sunrise/sunset times, phases of the moon, weights and measures, stuff like that, but from a prognostication standpoint, not so much. Last year the Hagerstown Almanac predicted we get crushed by three or four nor'easters...I think our total seasonal accumulated snowfall here in central Maryland was less then four inches. Still, it's a fun read, especially that list of vice-presidents of the U. S.
