We have skunks, monks and hawks, and the foxes appear to be feeding the cubs in CT. Probably have fish somewhere in swollen rivers, but they are way high. Have to wait em out a bit.

Just about to cite that storm; I remembered several RI school systems cancelled classes on that day in May. |

Yup, I think that was the one I mentioned earlier. I think it was in 1977. |

If memory serves, Easter weekend a month before that storm it was in the high 80's to low 90's . ( if my enfeebled memory serves )

I'm not sure if it was the same year, but I recall a Patriots' Day in the 1970s when they ran the Boston Marathon in 95 degree weather. |

Even if we get a late snowstorm, it doesn't last. I'd rather have snow late and get rid of it in a couple of days than have it fall earlier on top of existing piles. !

The ice went out and we went swimming, for a couple of seconds. |
