Quincy Quarry Weekly Fish Wrap: Quincy stuck in a deep freeze.

A wicked deep freeze.

In the wake of the White Christmas Day white out, a polar vortex has plunged temperatures in the Q to record lows.

So much for Global Warming.

Rather, climate change looks to be heading the other way.

Throw in the usual spotty local snow plowing and the Q is pretty much Q’ed – or at least slip-sliding away.

Thoroughly plowed …

For example, the City of Quincy opted to ticket a least one local on Wednesday for not clearing his sidewalk of frozen hard snow piled up on his sidewalk by a snow plow after he had duly cleared it of snow on Christmas Day.

Yet again, only in the Q.

Speaking of yet again, Quincy Quarry found a local street that had yet to be plowed or even merely but salted three days after the White Christmas Day white out.

No clue, however, how these snowbound local homeowners might be able to seek an only proper to receive modest property tax rebate from the City of Quincy over its dropping the plow.

Street hockey time?

And speaking of grinches, a Boston area group both dissed Canadians for provided an escort for Santa’s sleigh and then tried to deflect well-warranted umbrage then sent its way as – well – fake news.

Granted, Canadians are tough nuts when it comes to checking an opponent into the boards on a hockey rink.

Even so, who can legitimately criticize them for providing Santa with an unarmed escort?

After all, Canada does abut the North Pole.

Bah, humbug – BARKEEP!!

That and who wants to run the risk of ending up with but a stocking full of coal on Christmas Day?

In the meanwhile, try to hunker down as best one can as the extended weather forecast is projecting temperatures to stay below to well below freezing until January 8th – the very same day that the Red Line Wollaston station is slated to close for (at least, ed.) twenty months for reconstruction.

Happy New Year …
