I’m in the Syracuse area now.
Friday was a gorgeous day and my son came in from college to put his snow tires on as we initially heard there was supposed to be snow today and tomorrow. It got foggy Fri night and we have had HEAVY fog for days now.
It got a little gusty here earlier this evening and we had some decent rain.
Right now it’s a beautiful, still, warm night with a light, misty rain, almost drizzling.
Go figure.......
Sandy claims ‘Bounty’ off North Carolina
http://www.cnn.com/2012/10/29/us/sandy-bounty-ship/index.html?hpt=hp_c2
Three people washed off their crippled ship and engulfed by Atlantic waters roiled by Hurricane Sandy scrambled for help on Monday, the U.S. Coast Guard said, but only one of them made it to safety.
When the HMS Bounty’s crew members realized their lives were in danger off the North Carolina coast in the dark morning hours, they made a short journey they hoped they’d never have to take — to two waiting life rafts.
But only 13 of the 16 people aboard got off the ship safely, initially, and only one of the three washed overboard made it into a raft, Coast Guard Vice Adm. Robert Parker told CNN. That left rescuers scrambling to find them in the frenzied ocean, Parker said.
Wow, you have a bubble over you... I want one!
