Forecast for Tuesday: quite windy. Again.

Expect a wind reprieve Wednesday, though. Then wind returns Thursday. But boy, just wait till you see Friday–winds then expected at 25 to 35 MPH! Ack!

18 MPH- that means fuse it [i.e., secure lettuce to cat’s head] or lose it.

DIVVY BIKE REPORT: all stations operational. (We’re operating under the assumption that Chappel and 71st isn’t coming back.)
