A narrow weather forecast chart shows hourly temperatures, rain, wind conditions, and a gale warning.

Posted to Beaver Island Boat Company (Facebook page) by Beaver Island Boat Company on 2025-12-04 16:56:12. Caption as posted: "This has been a snowy and windy winter, and it has just started. We know that many of our customers travel a long distance to get to the boat docks, and with the windy weather, we are cancelling tomorrow's boat departures December 5th, early to avoid having anyone travel if not necessary. We will be making up the trip on Sunday, the 7th. 8:30 am departure from Charlevoix 11:20 am departure from Beaver Island. We have had to make far too many of these posts and decisions over the last few weeks, and we apologize. Again, the safety of our passengers and crew is always at the forefront. "

Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A narrow screenshot of a multi-day hourly weather forecast is divided into columns for three days. Rows show weather icons, temperatures, rain amounts, wind speeds, gusts, wind directions, and warnings, with colored bands highlighting changing conditions. A gale warning appears along the bottom of part of the chart.

A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.

Taken from the record

Not observed in the image — supplied by the archive's own catalogue, and repeated here so the two stay distinguishable.

The catalogue record identifies this as an image posted to the Beaver Island Boat Company Facebook page on December 4, 2025. The accompanying post states that boat departures scheduled for December 5 were cancelled because of windy weather, with a replacement trip planned for December 7, and gives departure times from Charlevoix and Beaver Island.

Why this archive publishes it. Public Facebook groups and pages run by island organisations and residents. Each item credits the poster by name and links to the original post. Removal on request.

Material goes off the web without anyone deciding that it should: a host lapses, a gallery is retired, a link stops resolving. Holding a copy — with its provenance, its checksum and its holder's terms recorded beside it — is much of why this archive exists. If you are looking for something whose original has since gone, write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com and a full-size copy of what is held here will be sent to you.

Recorded verbatim from the provenance sidecar taken at retrieval — this archive does not restate a holder's terms in its own words, does not add a restriction the holder did not state, and does not abridge one.

The archive holds its own copy of that file and will supply it on request; it is not re-served here, because the holder serves it better and a second copy is a second thing to go stale.
