Man, what a classic hurricane sky. Deep blues with crisp-edged cumulus and wisps of cirrus above.

If the puffy cumulus haven't completely expanded the sky later today, could be some neat visuals of the encroaching high cloud canopy of Henri, and possibly some vivid sunsets of the sort that would scare the barnacles off grizzled seafarers. Pretty rare to have an oceanic tropical disturbance approaching from a seaward angle, and, minus the grey rainy clutter of antecedent tropical rains. Today is the sort of puffy cloud, dew point obsessed day you see in FLA as people in the path frantically board their windows-- now here in New England! The best  previous example I remember of a non-pre contaminated hurricane was Esther in 1961 which before it performed a slow dying pirouette off the southern New England coast was a category 3 or 4 storm. In the Boston area where I lived at the time there was a neat high cloud shield  from Esther punctuated by bands of darker cirrostratus, though aside from a few antecedent squalls bands that night, the net results of Esther in the Boston area were disappointingly underwhelming.

We’ve discussed burying electric lines before.   Wasn’t it over $1 million per mile years ago?

I can’t even get my road paved…. 

Minimum $1 million per mile and, in areas that are already developed, you have to compete with other utilites and then trenching and ground each house.  It's not going to happen on a large scale in this country.

At least everyone living at buoy 41001 got some epic dews.

Even down here not all electric lines aren’t buried but, Florida Power & Light has invested in their network, swapping out most poles to cement including the high tension poles.
