Get down to the shore in Lacey Township with Tony Caputo. Tony, how's it looking down there in Lacey? Mike, what a great cue. You say you need to shovel. We found a mayor who's doing some shoveling out here on his own, Lacey Township Mayor Pete Curatolo. Pete, we appreciate the time and you got the shovel ready to go. I pulled up. I said, What? They put the mayor to work out here. He's out here shoveling town hall. You do it for the people, but it's really two purposes. I'm sure my doctor and my cholesterol appreciate it too, so. You get out early, get up early and stay productive as long as we use the knees and watch the back, we're OK. Got to do that and it'll be a long day, no doubt. Now Lacey Road right behind us, it's looking good. You tell me this is a county road, but it's looking very clear right now. That's true. It's County Road 614, and I'm gonna tell you in Lacey Township there are no there's nobody working in silos. We've been in contact with the county sheriff. Uh, the county road crews, our police department and our department of public works. So out in our west we have Bamber Lakes. We're taking care of them out here and the majority of our population is over here near the coast. But like I said, there's no silos, and as you can see, these roads are in really good shape. School delay today, school delay 2 hours. I talked to Superintendent, acting superintendent, and what we're going to do is just assess that as we go forward. Safety is always the priority. Is it me or is it a little warm out here right now, which would be good for melting? Well, on the on the dashboard of the car, it said 33. So as long as we're over 32, I think and when the sun comes up, you're going to see a lot of this melt away, so we're pretty fortunate. Yeah, Thunderbolt had it at 34 for us, so yeah, you're right. I mean, as long as we're over that 32 mark, that just helps everything. It certainly does, and it saves the town on overtime too, so it's pretty good. It's pretty good. That's why I'm out here with the shovel, smoking like a true ma. We appreciate that, man. Thanks for the time. Good luck with all this. Who knows? Maybe we'll chat again on the next storm. OK. You have my number. Thank you. We appreciate it. Thank you, appreciate that work you and Jersey News 12 do. It says local matters and and it really is true so I appreciate your work. Well, you just made our day. Thank you, Mayor. We appreciate that. We'll send it out to news New Jersey's Lauren Du now. She's across the state, Mercer County this morning also in Thunderbolt. Lauren, are you in Thunderbolt or are you outside?
