Madison has April school break this week. They try to be different than the other towns. I don't think any other district is having school break this week. Sent from my moto g 5G (2022) using Tapatalk

Sky conditions at ROC right now. So, I'm off to the Rochester Science Museum to see the two toed Sloth Exhibit and the eclipse planetarian show. So, at least I will see an eclipse on the big screen! [emoji16]. They don't have that in Newport, VT....lol Sent from my moto g 5G (2022) using Tapatalk

Just sitting in Rochester, NY right now hoping the models are wrong. I might drive a bit east along the lake, but it doesn't appear that will make much difference at this point. Funny thing is that I did originally have hotel reservations for Magog, QC and we changed them a few weeks ago to Rochester, so we would go to Niagara Falls after. I feel bad for the folks who paid over $700 a night for hotel rooms here for clouds. I stayed free on points. Sent from my moto g 5G (2022) using Tapatalk

Ok..... consensus......should I switch my hotel reservations in Rochester, NY and switch to Cornwall, Ontario? I have until midnight to cancel Rochester.....so the clock is ticking. Will the cloud cover be a lot less in Cornwall? I have to drive to Niagara Falls the next day.....so don't want to go any further east than that. Sent from my moto g 5G (2022) using Tapatalk

Anyone surprised no watch up for the CT coast? Anyone familiar with North Madison and North Guilford realize those areas literally border interior zones to the west and east.....North Branford and Killiingworth, yet still classified as southern zones of New Haven county. I guess not much can be done about that unless they become separate towns. But in these types of situations we could get as slammed up here when the immediate coast doesn't do nearly as well. Guess just one the nuances that can't be fixed. Sent from my moto g 5G (2022) using Tapatalk

Wow, I'm surprised no one has mentioned staying in southern Quebec or the Eastern Townships for this event. I've checked and hotel availability seems a lot better there than NNE. Sherbrooke, Quebec is my pick for this event. But Magog and other towns also seemed to have good hotel availability without the inflated prices I'm seeing here. The one exception may be Niagara Falls, ON. Rates were high over there. Sent from my moto g 5G (2022) using Tapatalk

Don't tell that to the folks living in Madison on the central CT coast. Trees are so close to the power lines here ....we lose power on almost every storm with over 40 mph winds. Sent from my moto g 5G (2022) using Tapatalk -

I downloaded the TV news apps for Maine and the TV mets there are really downplaying this storm. Think they will be in for a big surprise if the further west models verify with landfall in Central or Eastern ME. Sent from my moto g 5G (2022) using Tapatalk

I feel the same way. I'm 49. I still have vivid memories of Gloria and Bob though. Toured the Mount Washington Observatory 2 days before Bob hit and the Met there was almost certain Bob would miss us. Left North Conway 6 AM to almost beat the storm, but we still got slammed with torrential rains heading into Mass. I still say it ain't over till it's over. Stranger things have happened with tropical systems, but I get it that it seems to take an act of God to get a full fledged cane up here. Sent from my moto g 5G (2022) using Tapatalk
