We got wholloped with 50 knot winds and seas close to 30 feet about 10 miles offshore last night. Today, 30 foot trees and all sorts of other crud you'll want to miss on the water in the springtime are heading downstream to open ocean. The river usually tops out about 12 feet lower than it is now under that boathouse but the sky sure looks pretty... Anyone else have crazy conditions last night?

We had strong winds and white caps in the river, but no flooding , snow or rain. Rocked the camper pretty good.
 
Beautiful pic. Just noticed Old Orchard. My sister and brother in-law live there. Can't wait to visit again
 
It was nuts in central MA last night. We lost power for a few hours. I thought we might be headed for another long one like the 7 days last year. But to my amazement, they had us back online in no time. Especially impressive when you consider they did it when the winds were still howling and it was still pouring!

Swing on by when you're up this way again. Bring real food - all we have is lobster! OOB got clobbered - lots of streets impassable. Could have been worse - Isles of Shoals buoy off New Hampshire had gusts up to 91.
 
fronts passing every few days bringing cold windy weather. I just cancelled our cruise to Naples, too cold.
 
Lake Erie was smooth as glass...wait...that may be ice...LOL
 
Saw on the Wx channel this AM that parts of Maine were able to enjoy up to 90mph zephyrs last night. Vineyard Sound here only recorded about 43kts.
 
Steve...nice shot - show us a pic of the white house in normal conditions sometime. Was in Bronx yesterday - huge snow - got out before it hit the fan. 3" rain in CT - little snow. Skiing New Hampshire canceled for now. Can't wait to launch!
 
Beautiful picture. Looks so peaceful. One question, were is all your snow?
 
We are having 30 to 35 knots winds and 6 to 8 ft. seas in the GOM. Plus 55 deg. weather.
Can't wait till spring get here.
