Snapped a few of the harbor this afternoon. I Walked clear across the harbor. About 6-8" thick frozen solid salt water. This is Wickford, Rhode Island. Even the fire boat was frozen solid.
How about those quohoggin' boats with their lowers frozen in?!
Just a few spots on the shore where the tide broke up the ice.

I can't believe they don't have bubblers on those things. I guess its just tax money to them and no one gives a rip.

Hey it hasn't exactly been a picnic down here either. I had to cover my plants twice this week and I wore a heavy coat on Saturday morning. Thanks for your concern but we are back into the 70s tomorrow so we should be fine.

68 in Miami this morning. Spent the weekend outside continuing my boat restoration now that it warmed up. The epoxy doesn't like to cure in the frigid 50 degree weather we have been having

I watched the weather across the country - you guys did get pretty close to that 32* mark.... And it did snow a bit in some places, didn't it?

I feel bad for that Fire Boat though... I cant imagine they drained the engine blocks of water before it froze... and the jet drives! I wonder what kind of damage is done to these machines when this happens.
