Skarpi, I just held a meeting with the staff here at the library about what we're going to do if we have to close.

There are three different weather fronts approaching the US, and they will join together in the middle of the country. We're not there, but two of them are going to affect us. The Weather Service is calling for several feet of snow in the mountains and "heavy snow" is possible here in the high valleys.

And we, like you, are in an area they call "seismically active" -- we can have earthquakes and even volcanic eruptions.

I hope that you have a great time in Portaferry!
