Lots of comments from non-Chris83 posters earlier in the thread didn't bring your ire.
You really should try the ignore feature.
Many of these posts are about global weather patterns that effect SBH.
Finally, don't you people have ANYTHING else to do that sit on this forum all day, every day?
Seriously sad.

Nor' Easter on Nantucket. Wind gusts up to 95. Flooding in many areas, trees down and power was on and off last night from what I am hearing. A couple of more high tides to deal with.
The pressure was plummeting and the damaging wind gusts near hurricane force were ramping up early Friday afternoon, as a huge and powerful nor’easter rapidly intensified off the Northeast U.S. coast. “Bombogenesis” occurs when the central pressure of a storm drops at least 24 millibars (mb) in 24 hours, and Friday’s “bomb” cyclone—dubbed “Riley”—achieved that standard, with the central pressure falling 30 mb in 24 hours, to 970 mb early Friday afternoon, when its center was southeast of Nantucket Island, Massachusetts. The storm’s central pressure will fall just a few more millibars through Saturday

But hey,who cares about the atlantic ? ))
States of emergency were declared on Saturday in Massachusetts, Virginia, and Maryland, after Winter Storm Riley brought hurricane-force wind gusts, a destructive storm surge, and heavy rain and snow to the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. At least seven deaths have been blamed on the storm, and more than 2 million customers lost power.

Reed- did not realize it was that bad on Nantucket! Hope all is ok with you. It seems that weather is a story somewhere every day. I don't recall having 'weather' as a front page event so often almost year round? Let's hope all of the posts continue to be like Amy's- it "rocks" in SBH!

Thanks Hopper. All is ok with me as I am on SBH! Ferries are running again on Nantucket and the island will carry on. Major flooding in town similar if not worse than the storm that took place their in January.

The last one is interesting,in any case.
Consistent with the weather patterns we experience.....The gulf stream is weakening
East coast of the US, first on the front line.

You can find higher on this thread,the potential impact for the caribbean.
"saving the ponds" is clearly the priority going forward )))
