Although a Tropical Storm Warning remains posted, I just returned from hanging a bird feeder and noticed the golf net still standing so I’m going to go out on an intact limb and call off the THREAT TO LIFE portion of the exercise. The weather has since made its closest jog to the Cape before continuing NE in route to Nova Scotia. On the outage front, Brewster is posting less than 2, which may be assumed to be 1, while Wellfleet reports 7…all zeros in between. Rain persists and an occasional gust looks to be in the low 30 mph range resulting in conditions that would never compel me to reach out save for the unusual name attached to the weather carried by incessant warnings. Should conditions deteriorate I will most certainly circle back but it appears as though its just a lousy day on the Cape unless you’re still in bed.

As a lifelong resident of the outer Cape I was the third generation to pick up the mantel in the family construction business. In my early twenties, I called the Cape my home on weekends as I spent several years working for a variety of off-Cape commercial construction companies. My site supervision resume includes two supermarkets, two HUD projects, a funeral home and a handful of steel industrial buildings as well as various restaurant and office remodels.
