Tropical Storm Warning
 |
THREAT OF HURRICANE BILL
LESSENS, BUT CAUTION CONTINUES
Swimmers and Boaters Must Still Respect High, Dangerous Seas
FRAMINGHAM, MA – “Based on the latest forecasts from the National Weather
Service, we are cautiously optimistic that Massachusetts will avoid the
worst of this storm. I urge residents to remain vigilant. Boaters and
swimmers should stay off and out of the water around the outer Cape and
Islands until further notice,” stated Governor Deval Patrick. “I am
grateful to all of our state, local and volunteer emergency management
personnel for their professionalism.”
As the
latest reports from the National Weather Service indicate that Hurricane
Bill’s forecasted path will now take it over 150 miles east of Nantucket,
the threat of a landfall is greatly diminished. Nonetheless, state
officials and local officials continue to monitor the storm very closely,
making preparations, with the expectation that its potential impact on
Massachusetts has lessened.
Although the threat of damaging winds and driving rains have diminished, the
rough seas and threat of lift-threatening rip currents remain. The
Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) continues to advise
swimmers, regardless of their abilities, to stay out of the ocean,
particularly along outer Cape Cod and the Islands both Saturday and Sunday.
Additionally, pleasure boaters are asked to avoid the same areas over the
weekend. High seas and strong offshore winds will place boaters in harms
way. They must closely follow the U.S. Coast Guard’s warning and
directives.

 THE
CHICKS ARE BANDED
The Bay State's
resident Bald eagles and Peregrine falcons were the focus of a
banding effort by MassWildlife biologists during the months of
May and June. Dr. Tom French, Assistant Director of
MassWildlife's Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program,
reported an estimated 39 peregrine falcon chicks at 17 nests.
"Peregrine nests are popping up everywhere with two new nests at
MIT in Cambridge and an apartment building in New Bedford," said
French. Falcon nest locations include eight peregrine nesting
sites in the Greater Metropolitan Boston area, while Worcester,
Fall River, Lawrence, Lowell, Deerfield, Amherst and Springfield
each host one nest.
MassWildlife
biologists and technicians visited known or suspected eagle nest
sites from Fall River to Sheffield, to the Merrimack River as
well as the "core" population on Quabbin Reservoir and the
Connecticut River and banded a 37 eaglets. Of 22 eagle nesting
attempts, 21 were successful, resulting in the fledging of 37
eaglets, an unusually high rate of success. Eagle nesting
highlights also included the discovery of three new nest sites
among the towns of Hadley, Holyoke, and Lunenburg. MassWildlife
has estimated a statewide total of 27 eagle territories.
The banning of
DDT in 1972 and subsequent restoration efforts brought the
Peregrine falcon and Bald eagle back from the brink of
extinction in Massachusetts and across the country. Banding of
the young has proven to be an important scientific tool in
measuring the success of restoration programs and learning about
raptor survival rates, dispersal distances, habitat preferences,
and causes of death. The Peregrine falcon was removed from the
federal Endangered Species list in 1999. The Bald eagle was
delisted from the Federal Endangered Species list in 2007, a
tribute to the restoration efforts in states like Massachusetts.

August 20,
2009 - Linda Hubley - Another chapter
is read in the life of Mom in her world of Alzheimer’s. Last night on our
way home from Maine, we stopped in to see mom. She gets her medications in
the evening before bed, so she was pretty calm and placid. I told her I’d
been to a memorial service for her sister-in-law and who was there. I told
her that I’d seen my cousin Philip who I had lost touch with over twenty
years ago due to his moving from place to place. My cousins and their
families were mourning the loss of their mom. My aunt was 89 and had slipped
and broken her hip and the surgery did not go well. With the loss of my
aunt, my mom remains the only living sibling/spouse alive. Mom doesn’t
understand that as she doesn’t know why her family isn’t here even though
she thinks most times she is only eight or ten years old and in school. It
also leaves my cousin Bobbie as the patriarch of his family and when mom
passes he will carry the torch as the oldest on that side of the family. He
told me that was a sobering thought.
Beyond that
chapter was the chapter a few months ago of having to sell mom and dad’s
house. The house was an old colonial in Billerica dating back to the 1700’s.
The house unfortunately had bad timing to be sold but it was unavoidable.
The house was vacant, we needed money to pay for mom’s care and none of us
had time to keep it up to date. A builder bought the house and barn and
within days it was torn down and a new home springs from the old horse
corral. It was kind of sad to see how fast it came down. Mom and dad bought
the property in 1953 shortly after being married. They never moved until dad
died in 2000 and mom went into the nursing home a few years ago.
If this was
truly a book, it would have started out like most families, lots of fun and
adventure, lots of learning curves and full of ups and downs. Soon the book
will be read and the sequel will have to be picked up by our family. (above
photo - mom on one of her last visits to her camp at Lake Winnipesaukee a
few years ago). |
SWIMMERS
AND BOATERS URGED TO TAKE PRECAUTIONS DUE TO POSSIBLE HIGH WEEKEND
 SEAS
FRAMINGHAM, MA – State officials cautioned boaters and swimmers to stay
aware of surf conditions as the projected path of Hurricane Bill is
predicted to pass several hundred miles east of Massachusetts. Even at that
distance, Hurricane Bill is expected to have an impact on coastal regions.
Swimmers and boaters must take precautions given the potential high seas and
strong currents expected to be associated with this event over the remainder
of the week.
The Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) offers
these tips for those around the water, particularly swimmers and boaters.
·
Always check surf conditions.
·
Swimmers should never swim alone,
preferably on beaches with lifeguards. If you see someone in trouble, get
help from a lifeguard. If a lifeguard is not available, have someone call
9-1-1.
·
Always be aware of the dangers of rip
currents. Remember to never swim against the current, but parallel to the
beach to an area where the current is weaker and you can safely return to
shore.
·
Never turn
your back to the ocean, as you may be swept off coastal bluffs or tide pool
areas and into the water by waves that can come without warning.
·
Be careful standing on seawalls while
watching the surf.
·
Boaters should continually obtain the
latest available weather forecast for your boating area as well as U.S.
Coast Guard and harbormaster warnings and directives.
·
Identify hurricane holes and safe
harbors in the area in case you are caught at sea.
·
Boat owners should assemble emergency
equipment and supplies, as well as all of the necessary gear on board to
properly tie down their vessel.
·
Realize that you may not be able to pull
your boat out of the water. Precious time is lost if you are searching for
gear as a storm approaches.
·
Have a plan worked out with your marina
operator so there are no questions or confusion when the time comes to tie
up or pull your boat from the water.
·
Insure your vessel is as watertight as
possible. Use duct tape and plugs to seal hatches, ports, windows, doors and
vents.
·
Remove all electronics, valuables and
non-essential items.
·
Have your insurance policies, boat
registration, a recent photograph and description of the vessel, gear
inventory, marina or storage lease agreement and important telephone numbers
(local harbormaster, U.S. Coast Guard, National Weather Service, insurance
agent) in a secure place off of the boat.
·
When you are through, help your
neighbor. It only takes one poorly tied boat in a marina to destroy an
entire dock.
·
Do not stay on the boat.
With hurricane season underway, it is a good reminder to take
the proper steps to ensure your family’s safety. Ensure that your Family
Emergency Kit is stocked for a 3-5 day period, your Family’s Communication
Plan is in place, and you have become informed of your community’s Emergency
Plans regarding potential notification systems, emergency shelters and
evacuation routes. For additional information regarding Hurricane
Preparedness, go to the MEMA website at

Viruses Spreading in
Mosquitoes in Massachusetts
Health officials remind residents to take precautions to
avoid mosquito bites.
BOSTON — August 14, 2009 - The Massachusetts
Department of Public Health (DPH) announced today that
West Nile Virus (PDF) | RTF (WNV)
has been found in mosquitoes in the towns of Westborough
and Westford. This follows yesterday’s finding of a
positive mosquito sample in Boston and one from Walpole
in July.
Eastern equine encephaliti (PDF) | RTF (EEE)
virus has been found twice in mosquitoes from Freetown.
“Summer is here and along with it, mosquitoes and their
viruses,” said DPH State Epidemiologist Dr. Al DeMaria.
“If you look at where the WNV mosquitoes have been found
on a map, you can see that the virus is distributed in
Worcester, Middlesex, Suffolk and Norfolk counties. We
shouldn’t think about this virus as occurring only in
certain towns. We consider it to be present in eastern
Massachusetts.”
There have been ten human cases of WNV in Massachusetts
during the last five years. While WNV can infect people
of all ages, people over the age of 50 are at higher
risk for severe disease. WNV is usually spread to humans
through the bite of an infected mosquito. There was one
human case of EEE during 2008; however there were 13
cases with 6 deaths from 2004 through 2006. EEE is
usually spread to humans through the bite of an infected
mosquito. EEE is a serious disease in all ages and can
even cause death.
“When you go out to enjoy the summer weather this
weekend, the mosquitoes will be enjoying it too. Don’t
forget the bug spray,” added DeMaria.
Positive mosquito results from 2009 can be found on the
Arbovirus Surveillance Information web page at
westnile.ashtonweb.com
People have an important role to play in protecting
themselves and their loved ones from illnesses caused by
mosquitoes.

 BOSTON
— The Massachusetts Department of Public Health (DPH) announced today that
Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE) has been found in a sample of mosquitoes
from Freetown. This sample comes from the same location where the season’s
first EEE mosquito sample was collected on July 20th.
“Each year, we always hope
that there won’t be any humans affected by EEE,” said DPH State
Epidemiologist Dr. Alfred DeMaria. “This positive mosquito sample serves to
remind us that the virus is around and can pose a risk, especially in
southeastern Massachusetts. However, we always recommend that people use
mosquito repellent and cover up to protect themselves no matter where they
are.”
There was one human case of
EEE during 2008; however there were 13 cases with six deaths from 2004
through 2006. EEE is usually spread to humans through the bite of an
infected mosquito. EEE is a serious disease in all ages and can even cause
death.
All positive mosquito
results from 2009 can be found on the Arbovirus Surveillance Information web
page at
www.westnile.ashtonweb.com.
People have an important
role to play in protecting themselves and their loved ones from illnesses
caused by mosquitoes.
Avoid Mosquito Bites
Be Aware of Peak
Mosquito Hours. The hours from dusk to dawn are peak biting
times for many mosquitoes. Consider rescheduling outdoor activities
that occur during evening or early morning.
Clothing Can Help
Reduce Mosquito Bites. Wearing long-sleeves, long pants and
socks when outdoors will help keep mosquitoes away from your skin.
Apply Insect
Repellent when Outdoors. Use a repellent with DEET (N,
N-diethyl-m-toluamide), permethrin, picaridin (KBR 3023), oil of
lemon eucalyptus [p-methane 3, 8-diol (PMD)] or IR3535 according to
the instructions on the product label. DEET products should not be
used on infants under two months of age and should be used in
concentrations of 30% or less on older children. Oil of lemon
eucalyptus should not be used on children under three years of age.
Mosquito-Proof Your Home
Drain Standing
Water. Mosquitoes lay their eggs in standing water. Limit the
number of places around your home for mosquitoes to breed by either
draining or discarding items that hold water. Check rain gutters and
drains. Empty any unused flowerpots and wading pools, and change
water in birdbaths frequently.
Install or Repair
Screens. Keep mosquitoes outside by having tightly-fitting
screens on all of your windows and doors.
More information is
available on the DPH website:
www.mass.gov/dph/wnv.
Information about West Nile Virus and Eastern Equine Encephalitis is also
available by calling the DPH recorded information line at 1-866-MASS-WNV
(1-866-627-7968), or the Epidemiology Program at 617-983-6800. |
 MONDAY
MORNING SKY SHOW: Set your alarm for dawn. On Monday morning, Aug. 17th,
Venus and the crescent Moon will gather beautifully close together in the
eastern sky. For many observers in North America, the International Space
Station (ISS) will make an appearance, too. It's a fantastic way to begin
the day. Check http://spaceweather.com
