I dunno, Rod. I once drove for twenty miles past trees that were left at a 45 degree angle. Not fun. I could not even imagine how it was to leave them that way.
I have been waiting all summer for something to shake up this quaint little town. I could do with a week long power outage, shut down gas stations, and no refrigerators. My sort of chaos B)
The hurricane itself is turning back on itself and is heading northeast away from the coast (and at long last away from the Bahamas, who have been under category 4 hurricane conditions for nearly 2 days!). It will actually pass closer to Bermuda now if current forecasts are to be believed. BUT, even though the hurricane's core and the associated hurricane force winds will remain well offshore, the moisture from the hurricane interacting with a front over the eastern USA will continue to provide extremely high rainfall totals, perhaps record breaking falls for some. Stay safe to all of you affected x
don't mind if I do have a hurricane, thx for asking - never seen one in real life so I'd like to have a new experience...though probably not a very fun one I suppose
We want without electricity today for about 6 hours, but our neighborhood is, for the moment, still above water. Quite a few of our neighboring communities, however, are flooded, and downtown is completely shut down and underwater!
