Boston

By Friday night, Boston should be covered by 5 to 11 inches of snow -- with freezing temperatures as low as 3 degrees below zero.

Citing likely "near blizzard" conditions Thursday night into late Friday morning, the state's emergency management agency warned that 1 to 2 feet of fluffy, drifting snow could accumulate in some parts and that there could be moderate coastal flooding.

The forecast was so bad for Beantown that the city canceled school for Friday two days in advance.

The combination extreme cold, snow and strong winds has homeless shelters at the ready, knowing there may be more people needing their help.

3. Fixed the furnace mysel today, got wood split and stove hot and just shoveled out four neighbors...

...yep, I've got a good feeling about this storm already.



Oh, and drying off and reading "Paul Revere" by D H Fisher by the fire.

Life is good.
