Boston weather

Is Boston still being inundated with bad weather to the point where Cakewalk services are being negatively impacted?

Rain and epic flooding is rumored for the weekend. Then it will all freeze to solid ice. .....oh Joy... But yes, everyone who works in a building where a roof didn't collapse are to report back to their places of employment.

The North East just got hammered this year. It looks funny on tv but I'd hate to be there dealing with it. Seems like a huge price for an ocean view.

Yeah! It was 8 this morning at my house in GEORGIA... they change the forecast every six hours or so too. I think Friday into Saturday it is going to be sunny, rainy, showy, icy, dark, and light here... oh calm and windy too.
They don't seem to have a clue. I am staying HERE, in the house!
I think we have hit the high for the day at 24 degrees F. I think it is going down to about 15 tonight.
 
It is supposed to be 49 in Key West and 31 in Orlando tonight. 29 tonight in Daytona Beach, FL... with that nice breeze off the water, they are going to be COLD. There are people down there who are completely unprepared for cold weather, who have nothing but tees, shorts, and flip flops. Probably Spring Breakers down there too, lol...
19 is cold anywhere but it is REALLY cold in a place like Daytona Beach.
 
As for Boston... guys, I'd move. Alabama has no state sales tax. Somewhere like Muscle Shoals, yeah... above the gnat line, far enough north to still have four seasons... maybe Athens, GA.  No hurricanes, no nor'easters, maybe a few tornadoes but hey... not that much snow. The streets are wide enough to drive on too! They also have iced tea! You'll pay more for lobster but there is plenty of fried chicken! There is also Austin, TX. You don't have to stay in Boston.
Better yet, you could move CW to Colorado... huh? Never mind, I forgot what I was saying... where did I put that cookie...
 
Hey, stay safe, and warm!

Windchill was -15 in here in Indiana. My nuggets were chattering when I was brushing off my truck.

Meh, he looks like one of them soft southern Finlanders to me......all wrapped up in his vest!

Axiology
They've got my Winter, I want it back dammit! Here, much further north in Calgary Alberta, Canada we've been getting unseasonably warm weather more suited to late March - early April.

After snow blowing 3 days ago with a temp of 5 °F and again today at a temp of 9°F I would gladly give you back your winter!

Maybe your Flames are so hot that it is causing the cold weather down here in Sabre country!

Wow! I'm surprised that no one's played ping pong with this post yet...
 

 
I'm not at all worried about Bostoners.  They've been getting snowed under since forever.  If anybody's used to it, they are (maybe not as much as Buffalo).
 

-13 tonight.
 
Me and Captain Morgan are watching Galavant. Via Hulu.
 
=====================
 
My son is close to the southern end of the Appalachian Trail. He started in Maine in June. Currently stuck just north of Georgia. He thought he would be done by now. But obviously global warming (and/or Loki) has intervened.
 
For the past two weeks he has been hanging with a family letting him use the apartment above their garage.
 
He has met many great people. With some sharing weeks of travel.
 
Along the trail are caches of food and supplies. Take some, leave some.
 
Signs are posted offering food and board for help to do, fix, and/or,...  On farms and other's places near the trail. Cheap labor. New conversation. News from far away in place and time.
 
My son is 44. He has experience with remodeling, damage restoration, cooking, computer use, repair, support, gaming, and strumming. He is an informed conspiracist with a great sense of humor. And all of the rest of it.
 
Writing that makes me think of one of Heinlein's quotes:
 
"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."―  Robert Anson Heinlein (1907 to 1988) in the Sayings of Lazarus Long interlude in Time Enough for Love (1973) also later published in The Notebooks of Lazarus Long
 
=====================
 
Last night when I lay to sleep it was 1983.
I remember it all.
 
I tell every person I have occasion, "Thirty years will pass before your next breath. Try to do what you yearn for. Question every urge to veer from that path."
 
"As Joseph Campbell told us, "Follow  your bliss."
 
Yeah, it sounds a little Baba Ram Das, but truly, "There is only now."
 
============================================
 
Obviously the Captain has gotten the best of this mental degradation.
 
And also obviously, at this moment, to be able to demonstrate that I can continue to read the screen and add characters is an example of why the knowledge of how to use a QWERTY keyboard should be one of the first physical abilities to be blocked from access by the frontal lobes.
 
I mean, Just because I can think it does not mean I should be able to communicate it.
 
===================
 
I am a man, and I can do what I want!
 

Andrew, is it true you have to ski to the office?

I only asked because it seemed to be taking a long time to get a customer support issue dealt with. I'll wait and see how I go.

I miss Global Warming

I am savoring this beautiful cold crisp weather and trying to store as many memories of it as I can in preparation for the nasty hot and humid summer. I work outside for much of the day and nothing feels nicer than being wrapped up all toasty warm with that frigid air on your face. I found my old ear muffs yesterday and added them to my outfit. It was perfect. 

Well, it should be interesting by Tuesday... more snow today, then warming and rain, then dropping back to around 0 for Tuesday AM. What will that do? Melt half the snow, cause flooding, then cover it all with a nice thick sheet of ice? I don't know. I'm guessing that there is a plan and is equipment to deal with things like this. I know New England will be glad when it is over!
Good luck.
