There was an unholy wind howling out of the south. The weather station on Lake Champlain was reporting 40MPH gusts.

A bit overheated. I stopped to watch the waves at one point. 3 to 4 foot rollers hitting the shore.

At least it wasn't cold. Mid 30Fs...

Wow, I miss winter commuting in Vermont. NOT
About 68 at 6am here, a little drizzle, but rain gear here is taking off
your shirt and enjoying it
Clouds over the ocean and intercoastal were spectacular !
No Crackhead disruptions when I reached the 'hood a few miles later...
An old man laffed at my folder but said "hi". Another old gentleman told me 'Slow DOWN !" Ha Ha..
Never heard that before...I wanted to stop and thank him
