[Rhodes22-list] MA sitrep

I'm located about 45 miles northwest of Steven's boat in Quincy.  Bands of heavy rain in MA.  Gusty winds in 40 MPH range.  Power out since 8 AM until tomorrow.  Collecting rain in buckets to flush w.c.  (no power for well).  
Hauled boat Friday, so it's safe in my yard.

Been meaning to get a generator…
