Sigh!!! How blessed this postponement is to me! It helps so very much... .

This is betty boop reporting, from the very soggy Commonwealth of Massachusetts, whose major state highways, Routes 20, 27, and 117, in my immediate vicinity, by which I need to get along on in order to get anywhere outside of my immediate community at all — were shut down for over a week, because they were underwater.

All things considered, I'm very glad for the very temporary reprieve.

I am going to play Captain Obvious here and make mention that this ONLY affects certain areas, not the entire U.S. Here’s part of what is on the IRS site..

“If you live in one of the following counties, your tax deadline of April 15 has been extended to May 11:

Massachusetts: Bristol, Essex, Middlesex, Norfolk, Plymouth, Suffolk, and Worcester Counties
Rhode Island: Kent, Newport, Providence, and Washington Counties
West Virginia: Fayette, Greenbrier, Kanawha, Mercer, and Raleigh Counties
Massachusetts has also extended the state income tax return filing deadline to May 11 for residents of the counties listed above.

Rhode Island has extended the state income tax return filing deadline to May 11 for all state residents.”

Don’t you still have to pay on 04/15?

Yipes ... I thought about folks like you when I saw the photos. What a messy nightmare and scary pain in the butt. It made me pretty grateful for being high and dry, and here I was fixing to complain about a little leak in the basement. And to have whole towns underwater, no groceries, no smokes, no beer runs, no Home Depot access ... what a drag!

My heart goes out to you.

If they are going to extend the deadline for anyone, they ought to extend it to everyone.

Who was the astronaut that had to file a request for extension because he was off-planet April 15?
