It's been a little over a year since my mom passed suddenly in her sleep. I brew my coffee to this picture every morning. Thinking of you, Mom. I love and miss you so. Thanks for being a guiding light every day even since you passed. 🙏

Officially making occasional visits to Boston to live out a life long dream of working in my hometown as a freelance meteorologist at WBZ Channel 4. Couldn't be happier. Couldn't be more excited. See you on TV Thanksgiving Day!

A personal moment to share: Many, many months have gone by since I have seen my Mom, my only parent since my Dad passed some 2.5 yrs ago. We hadn't seen each other since about 6 months after Dad passed and the start of the pandemic. Celebrating good health and reunion.

More than a mom. She was my strength, guide, the person who I could always turn to no matter what the circumstances. A tower of truth, faithful & devoted to her family. And now she's gone on to be with my Dad. Rest in peace Mommy. Life just won't be the same without you.

I've lived in coastal New England, went to school in Northern Vermont, and have seen many a lake effect event in the 22 years I've been in Rochester. Never have I seen such a ferocious lake effect snow event as this with intense snow rates & relentless 70 mph wind gusts.

needs to be prepared for a long duration, high impact lake effect snow event that really gets going Thursday night and lasts, potentially, into Mon AM. Broad ranges in snow totals should be expected, but strong likelihood exists of needing a yardstick to measure it in spots.

30 pounds lighter than 16 months ago, and the journey continues. Haven't felt this great since I was in my 20s. Hoping I can keep the momentum going!

Back in Massachusetts. I couldn't quite face staying in my childhood home alone tonight until my brother arrives tomorrow. Then we begin the difficult process of "deconstructing" a life. So...a pond near the house, a Marriott, and a beverage will do for now to unwind.

Lighting the candles on my Mom's menorah for the first time since she passed was very emotional this evening, but the tradition carried on from our childhood home to mine. To those marking the holiday, Happy Hanukkah!

Good morning, Rochester. I've missed you but I've been busy taking care of this guy. This is my Dad who lives in MA & he means the world to me & my family. He's in the hospital battling multiple issues. He needs good vibes in his fight and so do I on this Thursday.

Perhaps I'm crazy...(don't answer that)....but has anyone else noticed more birds chirping? Is it that all of us are home more to notice them or is it that the amount of human activity outside has declined so much that there are either more of them or that they are heard more?

Said goodbye to my childhood home today in Easton, MA packing a cargo van with what was left after my sale to take back to Rochester. Saw my Mom's tea roses that she loved. They reminded me of the joy and love of our home. Holding on dearly to the memories while looking ahead.

Today, Mom, we would be celebrating your birthday. I'm so glad we got to be together last year to mark it with joy and laughter. The single candle lit today next to our picture is for you, symbolic of the light, energy & love you brought to this world. Love you forever, Mom.

Home in Massachusetts to be with my Mom on this very first Father's Day since his passing. A single yellow rose from her garden graces the table with its beauty but his chair at the table for our morning coffee is empty. Bittersweet, but glad to be home this weekend.

Refusing to be trapped by travel bans, I set out for Rochester on side roads from Buffalo at 1145pm. Passed half a dozen cars & trucks in the ditch on 33. 2.25 hours to get home but I'm back safe! Now excuse me while I sip my "tea". 😅 What a storm! Stay safe everyone!

This is the Mazuzah that stands proudly on my doorpost. Affixed there to fulfill G-d's will that His Word is on the gates and doorposts of a home. I stand with my Jewish brothers and sisters against violence and hatred and pray that America... can do better.

Enough with loud trucks, bikes, off-roaders in the Park Ave neighborhood of

This is the spot. The spot where my meteorological interests blossomed. My little alcove in my room. Weather records on the top shelf. Cloud chart and maps to the left. And a plexiglass hurricane tracking chart with barometer. Many hours spent here in my teens and 20s.

I was sorting through some of my Dad's things at home. Found the silk handkerchief he would wear when performing, playing guitar on stage in the 60s & 70s with his band. I realized it matched a tie my Mom gifted me years ago. Tonight, I figured I'd wear both in their memory. ❤️

Can't stop thinking about my Dad today who would've turned 81 today. Gone now 5 years. He was more than just my father: He was my rock, my inspiration, and... my friend. His last words to me were "Son, keep going. Just keep going." Here's to you, Dad. I'll keep going.

Mom loved tasteful flower arrangements. So I had some sent to her in honor of what would have been her 79th birthday this Sunday. To think it was only 2 years ago we laughed, dined, & sang to her at Morton's in Boston. It was also the last time i saw her. Love you forever, Mom.

Received a startling early am call from an old friend who's not doing well. Take time for your mental health, and while you're at it, take time to think of & care for others who may be coping with issues that affect their mental health. Talk to them if you can.
