1) At 3-AM, I checked into the Black Cat Island "present weather". http://www.blackcatnh.com/
In silent testimony, it showed the wind at 2-MPH (no waves on the water).

Here, just a few miles away—through the dark—that "calm" was splashing-away noisily at my shoreline.

2) Present BCI temperature: 61°.

Here: 55°.

Oh well... I'm gonna go sailing!
