Anyone else underwhelmed by the halftime celebration for TB12? We waited for 9/10/23 to be told to wait for HOF on 6/12/24? No jersey retirement? No statue? And the website apparently couldn’t handle the traffic? What did I miss?
Way too close to home! My neighborhood this morning. I counted 7 homes with trees on them on just two streets in my neighborhood.

The hardware arrived today!
“Team coverage” category, for covering a powerful nor’easter. Just being on this team is a privilege. The statue is the icing on the cake.
Can't possibly express my admiration, my gratitude, my feelings on Twitter - not enough characters!
It has been a privilege and my high honor to have worked with
@HarveyWCVB
and to call him a friend.
#ThankYouHarvey
! Your are a mensch. You are a legend. Happy retirement!
#WCVB
No, these aren't route numbers. It's model data of how hot the pavement will get this afternoon. I share this because if the sidewalks and parking lots can burn your feet, just think how it might feel for your pet!

Excited for, and very proud of my good friend and colleague,
@Met_CindyFitz
– the first female Chief Meteorologist in
#Boston
! It’s an honor to work alongside her,
@MetMikeWCVB
(who will take over M-F evenings) and
@kellyannwx
…some of the best at what they do!
Congratulations! Cindy Fitzgibbon has been named WCVB StormTeam 5 Chief Meteorologist! And Mike Wankum will take over weeknight forecasting duties. ☀ ☀ ☀ Sunny skies ahead, Cindy and Mike! Details>>
So, I shared with
@EdWCVB
and
@mariastephanos
that my daughters won’t do anything I ask until I ask in my “
#Batman
voice.” Somehow, it became part of The 10 O’Clock News on MeTV...with a twist from our audio guy.
#WCVB
This lady is one of the NICEST, KINDEST, WONDERFUL people I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with.
@NathalieWCVB
is headed south to be much closer to “home.”
¡Estoy tan feliz por me buen amiga…Buena suerte y felicidades!! Viajes seguros! 🥲🌴
[6:40 AM Fri.] Amazing to think that the
#blizzard
that will hit us late tonight and tomorrow STILL hasn't formed, yet we've been talking about it since Monday! Moisture gathering off the Carolinas...the embryo of our nor'easter.
#WCVB
Rapid changes from tomorrow's
#noreaster
. While we're forecasting heavy
#snow
totals across the interior, don't be shocked when the precip likely starts as rain. Storm intensification will lead to changeover to snow. Here's a rough idea on the timing of the changes.
#WCVB
Congratulations
@HarveyWCVB
! So well deserved. It is my honor to be lucky enough to work with this incredibly wonderful meteorologist, person and friend! We’re proud of you, Harvey!

When the

take the field for Opening Day tomorrow, it will be colder than when the

took the ice at the old ballpark in the

on Jan. 2!
#WCVB
And what a great decade it's been! Here's to the first female Chief in Boston (what took so long?)!
Great meteorologist, but an even better person and friend! Congrats,
@Met_CindyFitz
!
This weekend marks a decade for me
@WCVB
📺! 10 years of sharing my forecast with you each weekday morning at one of the best TV stations in the country. Grateful for your viewership and trust all these years…whatever the weather!

Inbound Arctic air, direct from Siberia, with stops throughout Canada, will arrive in

on Friday.
All aboard the Arctic Express!

Thank you,
@Jennifer_Eagan
, for this great new word:
"Dramp" is dreary and damp, inadvertently combined by someone who woke up way too early and is anchoring 4 hours of news by themselves!
But I like it!
#WCVB
⚠️SEVERE WEATHER POSSIBLE: A Severe Thunderstorm Watch has been issued for the area shaded in yellow. Have a plan and know where to go if severe weather is approaching. Use the
#WCVB
app or goto .
So...this is why we warn people and cut into programming to do so. Because if you were in the path of the storm, you'd want to know. And we will continue to do so...everytime.

My kid’s goldfish died.
The watering hole where I might enjoy a beverage and drown out some of my
#Tuesday
is closed because of
#COVID19
.
But I found the last can of
#Lysol
wipes at the store!
Suddenly, today isn’t so bad.
There is:
- Astronomical Winter (Dec. 21)
- Meteorological Winter (12/1)
- "Harveyological Winter" (10/4)
"Harveyological winter" is when
@HarveyWCVB
begins to grin at the prospect of snow, mostly because there was a big snowmaker in w'ern MA on 10/3-4/1987.
#WCVB
The Mayflower II came into New Bedford around 4 a.m. Tuesday, seeking sheltered port from
#Isaias
. She’s basking under late-day sun in the storm’s wake.

Back to school for my girls today! A 3rd Grader, a Pre-K-er, and for good measure, a throw back to my first day in 4th Grade in 1983 (the year I went by “Andy”).
Did you see it? Bernie in Falmouth did! This was the
#SpaceX
Falcon 9 rocket that launched this evening from Cape Canaveral. It was visible up and down the East Coast earlier this evening.

Very early look at what we're thinking for possible
#snow
totals from late Thursday night through midday Friday.
This can (and probably will) change a bit over next few days.
#WCVB
On Thursday night on MeTV at 10, I mentioned the late, great Gene Rayburn, host of the Match Game. I roller skated with him when I was a kid at the old Cape Skate in Hyannis, circa 1981. Here's proof... (I'm sitting to the left of Mr. Rayburn).

@EdWCVB
See a strange looking
#cloud
around
#Boston
this evening? Might have been a "
#ropecloud
" that actually developed over southern OH, moved over WV, then was carried overhead by strong jet stream winds. (Photo courtesy: Marleen Alter, Belmont, MA)

They let me back in the building!
Seriously, big shout out to

for holding another awesome

For folks with pets: This is a rough idea of what the temperature of the pavement is like this afternoon. Remember that when walking your pet (or walking around barefoot). Burns can result from walking on paved surfaces. Shorten the walk or walk on grass.

BREAKING: Magnitude-2.3
#earthquake
reported by
@USGS_Quakes
around 4:23 Sunday morning near Lake Winnisquam in New Hampshire. Several viewers of our sister station,
@WMUR9
, reported feeling it in Sanborton and Laconia.

Peak wing gust was 70 mph atop Mount Washington. Stronger than most nor’easters I’ve covered – and this was a warm frontal, summer day! Thanks
@MWObs
for an awesome experience (and the pizza slice and cookie!!)
#wcvb
Due respect, Mr. President: Record heat is also occurring over a larger area than the Midwest – over Australia.
I digress:
#ClimateChange
or
#GlobalWarming
is planetary, not regional.
#ClimateChange
occurs over decades or centuries, not 2-3 days of extreme cold or heat.
#STEM
In the beautiful Midwest, windchill temperatures are reaching minus 60 degrees, the coldest ever recorded. In coming days, expected to get even colder. People can’t last outside even for minutes. What the hell is going on with Global Waming? Please come back fast, we need you!
SOOOO excited to work with the newest member of StormTeam 5,
@Wxdavidw
(David Williams). Great guy, great energy, great meteorologist. Please give him a follow and welcome him to the
#WCVB
family!
