[Ipg-smz] I think I'm going to be ill

[Lynn Greiner]

It was 4 below F here (Toronto-ish) today (that's minus 20 C). 

Boston has the disturbing habit of panicking and shutting down - I was there at an event a couple of years ago, and 2 inches of slush closed down the city and the airport and trapped a herd of international journalists who were due to go home. Temps were high 30s F, I think - not that cold - but everything was soggy. On the plus side Sonos, who was holding the event, had a pizza party in its office that evening for all of the strays, so we had a nice time.

Here in Newton, a few miles west of Boston, it was I think on the edge of freezing (for sea level water) in the early morning, mid 30o's F during the day, back down in the high 20o's F now. Depending on which way some storms go, Sunday may be the same, or warmer, or colder :-)

Variable and not reliably predictable. Bring a coat/hat/mittens good to single-digit Fahr's, along with rain gear and snow footwear. Consider a pair of Yak Trax or other footwear clip ons for walking on ice. And good raingear.
