As far as I am concerned, not to have at least a little live-blogging would suggest that one or both of the competitors aren't really into the game. In such a case, winning, as they used to say about Elvis, has left the building.
It turns out that I was presented with quite a live-blogging opportunity this afternoon: a weather warning from Environment Canada. It seems that some areas, though I can't exactly figure out if Halifax is included, are forecast to receive as much as 100 millimeters of rain and possibly experience high winds.
While I am frequently skeptical about such warnings as so many of the times they are issued they turn out to result in nothing, in this case the available satellite imagery seems to suggest that we are actually due for some kind of serious weather in the not too distant future. Based on the movement of the storm it even seems that Halifax may really be in for something of a lashing.

Though the expected rain hasn't started falling in Halifax (which isn't surprising as the storm center is still clearly a ways away) the winds have definitely picked up and even started to howl (which givens the darkened skies a rather ominous feel).
I keep you posted on the development as the night progresses (hopefully my updates will either be sparse enough that you won't start to rely on them or frequent enough to keep you regularly coming back for more).
