Here is my video of the Boston Fireworks taken from Buck Hill. Apologies, my ancient camcorder had difficulties with the auto-focus in the low light, but it should look fine if viewed on a smaller screen. Visibility was amazing this night, especially considering how many hazy days there have been recently.

From Buck Hill, the big Boston display appears just to the left of 30 Dalton and the Prudential Center, the top of which was appropriately lit up in red, white and blue!

What really surprised me was all of the backyard fireworks displays happening at the same time. Even with the narrow angle of view from my zoom lens, there are an amazing number of other displays happening at the same time and all of them are quite impressive in their own right. Shout outs to Mattapan, Dorchester, Roxbury, and Milton.

The Chris Hedges Report · How 'Paradise Lost' Revolutionized the World (w/ Orlando Reade) | The Chris Hedges ReportBy Chris Hedges

“Great benefactors of mankind, deliverers,
Whose deeds some nobler poem shall adorn.”

John Milton’s Paradise Regained (1671), Book III, line 82.

'In this passage, Milton reflects on the nature of true greatness and the role of those who genuinely benefit humanity, contrasting them with false heroes or superficial achievers.'

Okay, then feed it data one week out on #HurricaneMilton. See what #Google #AI #WeatherModel says #Milton would've done! If it doesn't follow where Milton went - at Milton's strength - I want to hear NO MORE about #Google #AI and #Wx!

"In a significant advance for improving weather forecast accuracy, Google DeepMind scientists have developed a weather model that largely beats the world's most accurate modeling system."

A #Safelite technician (Jacob) [YES! I'm NAMING YOU!] came to my house today.

He was bitching about his house getting flooded by #Milton - said "At least we elected a good president and I'll get help!"

I said "Do nothing! I'm calling Safelite."
He said "Why?"
I said "You're NOT touching my car."

Then he got a call telling him he was "rescheduled" to another call.

I told him when he left: "You might wanna check the details about Trump wanting to kill #NOAA and #FEMA"

And I waved goodbye.
