Irene is arriving. Gusty winds? Check. Humid? Check. Bursts of rain? Check. (8AM conditions at Hanscom Field in Bedford: temperature 72F, dewpoint 71F, winds 28MPH gusting to 38.) Teevee reporters standing out in the middle of all that crap? Check.

I've still got power, though. So I'll sit back and enjoy the show for now. Stay safe and dry, folks!
