We’re in for Nasty Weather

Yep, this tune’s solidly in my bean this morning.

Apparently, here in Massachusetts, we’re in the midst of a weather event. ‘the fuck’s zat, hmmmm?
Weather
noun
the state of the air and atmosphere at a particular time and place : the temperature and other outside conditions (such as rain, cloudiness, etc.) at a particular time and place

Event
noun
something (especially something important or notable) that happens
So a weather event is when Zeus—king of the gods, ruler of clouds, rain, thunder and lightning—gets his freak on. If snow’s involved Z-Man rings up Boreas, god of winter; asks him to join the party. Sounds fun.

With meteorological explanations like this, isn't it obvs that I would’ve kicked total ass as a teevee weather girl? Seems crystal fucking clear to me!

Here in coastal Valhalla, it’s warm (43º). We’re getting oceans of rain and crazy strong wind off the water—no snow. I’m happy to spend today inside with Ten and Coco. I'll read, do my rehab exercising and some peddling.

I
think that the
world should be full of cats and full of rain, that's all, just
cats and
rain, rain and cats, very nice, good
night.
