All that's missing is the tumbleweeds.

8. It's weird to see reporters standing on an empty Mt. Auburn St.

I know that normally this time of day that stretch is teeming with activity.

10. Surreal.

11. It reminds me of Houston after Hurricane Rita missed us in 2005.

(Most of the region evacuated and then had disasters on the routes due to panic.)

Whoever can here, try to record the sound of it. That was something I truly wished I could have done in 2005 (mostly for the sound of that hurricane in the distance.) Record at least ten minutes of it, too, and try to refrain from narration. Should be interesting

12. That pic of Downtown Crossing

especially eerie. I have never seen it so empty. On a clear spring day it should be alive with people going here, there and everywhere.
