How hot is it?

Hotter than a snake's ass in a wagon rut?

I'm alive and well. Never lost power. One major limb down, luckily fell into the street. Leaves all over the ground.

Lights just flickered...

Uh oh

Finally home, never lost power and my rugs aren't squishy. News to sleep but I'm not tired yet. Or I am and my brain doesn't realize it.

Would be cool if it were a job, but its volunteer. They did feed me, though. I could have stayed for breakfast but decided to pass on it because the rivers haven't crested yet, and u wanted to he home before they do. On the upside, I know where the nearest Red Cross shelter is set up.

In addition to what I was there for, I managed to do something else to help out some guys involved in the storm response.

Damn Spexxie, which one did you lose?
If you collect it from the street and pack it in ice they may be able to reattach...

My favorite call ...

0330 hours: Is the Costco Warehouse Store going to be open?

Ma'am, the county's emergency management doesn't track that information. My best advice to you is to call the store during their regular business hours.

:)

We only lost power for 1/2 hour. We'll see how the rest of the day goes.

The sun just broke through! I see patches of blue sky.

Didn't lose power... didn't lose the big tree that sits in the water-saturated area.

It is cool here, still 63F with steady rain and wind.

Lost power from around 9pm to 4am & had water come in through back basement window. We were prepared.
Nothing unusual, we typically lose power during any hearty thunderstorm.
1 tree down out back, not mine.
Hung out with my kids and a neighbor - had a good time chillin'.

Though it peaked at fucking 112 yesterday, I'm told that some of that hurricane weather is going to slowly blow across our way and get the temps down to the 90s next week. Thanks for taking one for the team, guys!
