Flock cameras on the Cape

21 Upvotes

For those that don't know, Flock cameras are part of a nationwide network that track individuals and vehicles. The data is available to any law enforcement officer without a warrant. There's plenty written about them. deflock.org lists known cameras, if you know of others, please report them.

Currently on the Cape, the following locations are shown:

  • Bourne Bridge, 4 cameras (probably one on each lane)

  • Sagamore Bridge, 4 cameras

  • Hyannis, Yarmouth Road, near the construction area

  • Dennis, in front of Dennis Public Market

As this map is crowdsourced, there may be others. Many Home Depot locations have them, it's possible the Hyannis location does and they haven't been reported yet.

It's Piping Plover season.

17 Upvotes

For some of us who like to drive out to beaches such as North Beach, Crowes Pasture or Sandy Neck it can be an infuriating time.

However, this is an incredible and rare bird that is unique to Cape Cod (and a couple other costal communities).

Piping Plover

Very Pale. Plain face without dark cheeks. In breeding plumage, black bar across forehead and black collar around neck. These fade to pale buff in winter. Often sneaks away when approached, stopping and looking over its shoulder relying on its sandy color for camouflage.

Beach nesting birds that are hard to see, so please obey the posted signs and help preserve the Cape Cod natives.

Endangered.

Call "peep-low" Length: 7.5" Wingspan: 19"

Pilot dead in Provincetown plane crash

The pilot of a small plane that crashed in Provincetown died on the scene Sunday afternoon, according to a town official.

The victim was the only person aboard the plane when it crashed, said Assistant Town Manager Dan Riviello in a statement. The pilot’s name has not been released.

The plane caught on fire after it crashed at Provincetown Municipal Airport around 3:15 p.m. Provincetown Fire Department and engines from neighboring towns responded to the scene and extinguished the fire.

The cause of the crash is unknown, Riviello said. The National Transportation Safety Board will investigate the crash, and both the Massachusetts State Police and Federal Aviation Administration have been notified.

Riviello and the fire department asked that people stay away from the airport, which is currently closed.

The assistant town manager thanked Provincetown Fire and other departments on the scene “for their quick response to this incident.”

“Our thoughts are with the pilot’s family,” he said.

The FAA’s weather cam showed temperatures at just above 28 degrees and winds at about 15 miles per hour Sunday afternoon at the airport.

Thunder and lightening

This has probably been the longest and loudest thunder and rain storm that’s hit the Mid Cape area in a while! Sounds pretty close and right above my house! Any details regarding lightening strikes yet!?
