The Heat and the Storms Are Always Hot

Social Media Saturday is a weekly feature where we highlight your questions and thoughts you've shared on Facebook and other media throughout the past week.

We'll also point you to some new and interesting pages you may not have known about before.

We have 262 likes, which shows slow but steady progress. Bring on 300….

We love t. They grow tons (literally) of produce for the Worcester Food Bank. And their Facebook page is equally fruitful, with colorful, cool pics of eggplant, peppers and great people from the area who give their time.

Everyone loves to talk about the weather, and in New England that conversation can range from triple-digit heat to storms, all within the same week.

Our Facebook post on July 22 that the Silver Lake Beach would stay open later because of the heat drew 504 impressions.

Our call for weather watchers to let us know what was happening during the severe storms July 26 was also popular, with 482 impressions.

We asked our loyal weather watcher Peter Carlson what was happening, but received no response. Somehow we suspect the new baby kept his eyes away from the window.
