@GovDanMcKee Thanks, but for a lot of us it's natural gas that's a problem in winter, not electric - for example, my gas bill in winter is twice as high as my electric bill in summer. Are you doing anything to provide relief for those of us who use RIE gas service?

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

@ryanhallyall Don't remind me . . . the worst isn't here yet and I'm already sweating like a pig!

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

@WX1BOX Thank you! I'm more curious to know what the actual ratio was for this storm. If it's around the standard 10:1, then we'd be buried under close to 5 feet of snow if it was all light and fluffy with a ratio at 15:1!

@tony_tpetrarca RIE's outage map is currently down.

@ryanhallyall Hey Ryan, any idea what this is? Tracked over my house in Rhode Island tonight at 6:00PM; the outer wisps swirled around the middle light. No clouds close by, and I didn't hear anything. Has to be some sort of meteorological phenomenon, right? RIGHT????

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

@WX1BOX @tony_tpetrarca @NWSBoston @PinpointWXTeam OK weather folks, is there any meteorological explanation for this? Photos taken in East Providence tonight at 6:00PM; the wisps swirled around the main light. It tracked northeast then northwest toward PVD.

@altonbrown You're just realizing this now?

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

@TheStoryShorey There were two hanging out in front of Superior Court in Providence Monday! I thought someone was playing an early April Fool's joke.

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

@dog_rates Thought so when I didn't see it on your website. The car also had a "tell your dog i said hi" decal so I had to check. Terrible copycats.

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

@dog_rates A couple of days ago I saw a "tell your cat i said pspsps" decal on a car . . . that's not yours, I'm assuming?

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

@LisaRickey @birdietamart OK, I'm in love!!

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

From my house in Riverside, RI at 7:27pm. #riwx #aurora @tony_tpetrarca @PinpointWXTeam @WX1BOX

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

@tony_tpetrarca Do we have an idea of the best timeframe for viewing?

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

@altonbrown Five restaurants from each US state that are on your must visit list. Oh, and updates on Stirfry and Shrimp Toast. And dog photos. Lots and lots of dog photos.

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

@TheStoryShorey So can I - my brother-in-law is working there.

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

@altonbrown OK, fine, I will. *eats a raisin*

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

@altonbrown A sandwich consisting of roasted sweet potatoes, pickled balsamic onions, arugula, and hummus on sourdough baguette, with a kouign amann for dessert. All from Seven Stars Bakery in Providence, RI

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

@TedNesi Nope. I'm in denial.

[Lisa Bennett @KeeneBirdbrain]

@RichardERoeper We've got a local shoe store jingle here in RI that's pretty high up on that chart - Yorker Shoes. Incidentally, I feel like this would have been a good list for Casey Kasem to go though on an April Fools Day!
