				 So close 
 If the ice isn't gone by Monday then the higher winds that day should get rid of the last of the ice. Right now the webcams look like they are just showing slush. Unless anyone else sees more ice...

 Looking at the forecast I can't see this being anything more than a very temporary state. I bet you couldn't declare ice in today. Friday looks like being warm enough for me to eat outside. In the...

				 Compound growth isn't just for loans 
 It's early days, but COVID-19 has been showing a 15% daily growth rate. That means 100 fold increase each 33 days. 10,000 in 66 days. So unless we can slow it down that's 3,000,000 US cases with...
