After posting a “Bits & Pieces” post yesterday of over 1200 words, I suddenly realized that I had enough good material in there for a whole week of actual blog posts… if I made them a little shorter. And I’m thinking that would probably be a better approach. Starting today.
According to Weather.com, last night began a “wind chill advisory”:
THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN TAUNTON HAS ISSUED A WIND CHILL ADVISORY… WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM 7 PM [Thursday] EVENING TO 10 AM EST FRIDAY…
* HAZARD TYPES… DANGEROUSLY COLD WIND CHILLS.
* WIND CHILL READINGS… AS LOW AS 18 BELOW.
* TIMING… TONIGHT [Thursday] INTO FRIDAY MORNING. [Didn’t we already do this part?]
* IMPACTS… HEIGHTENED THREAT OF FROSTBITE OR HYPOTHERMIA FOR THOSE VENTURING OUTSIDE. [I’ll bet!]
[ . . . ]
LIMIT YOUR TIME OUTDOORS. REMEMBER TO DRESS IN LAYERS AND WEAR A HAT AND GLOVES TO PROTECT YOURSELF FROM THE COLD.
Yesterday [Thursday], it was so cold, I actually parked closer to the mall so I wouldn’t have to walk so far to get to Starbucks!
This morning, I didn’t even dare leave the car.
No, I’m not cold. My fingers are just falling off.
Stay frosty!
