With the recent weather, Good Harbor on Friday was not like a summer day. As always, the beach looked beautiful.

The marshes work wonders during extreme storms
photos January 13, 2024, two hours after high tide: At the back of Good Harbor Beach over to Cape Hedge (roughly Thatcher Road between Stop & Shop, Good Harbor Beach, Long Beach, and Cape Hedge). Streets were impassable for about two hours–flooded by feet of water not inches. Barriers, DPW crews, utility and emergency crews are repairing, clearing, and pushing cars. The last time the floods breached the berm at Cape Hedge was the March 2012 storms. I was away for the prior flooding this week, and have not seen other neighborhoods today.

Easter morning Rockport, Gloucester 4/9/2023
Feb. 10, 2023- a dreamy magic realism morning with several white rainbows at sunrise, maybe still. This one spanned the marsh, Old Nugent, Thacher Road more than an hour after sunrise. Hope to see your photos!

January sky 1/25/2023, Gloucester, Ma. This morning’s elongated cloud roll/cloud shelf tube wrapped around the coast and tapered to a funnel horn tip. Views passing Good Harbor Beach and Long Beach
A shelf cloud stacks with the storm cloud. A roll cloud doesn’t. Both were at play today. The roll was prominent 8AM to noon.
Gloucester 1/24/2023: Yellow and gray streaked sky, roads clear, and light accumulation from yesterday’s snowfall. Despite the sunny and warming up that’s forecast, there should be enough snow when school lets out suitable for building a snowman and slow sledding!
Picnics, promenade, and polar plunge- there were fresh starts everywhere we turned.
