We got half of what's to come. Rained all night here from the outer northern bands. Round two I expect soon.

I would much rather deal with this than live in Tornado Alley. At least you can prepare for hurricanes and get out of the wayunlike tornadoes.

I agree with that 100%. I like knowing what is coming and not being surprised by a wizard of oz fucking Toto wicked witch of the west follow the yellow brick road spinning wind storm from hell that is throwing cows 1000 feet into homes.

But then again I don't live in a trailer and the twisters only seem to hit trailer parks.

Nothing right now. You're getting what we had over night. No booze here.

I like to keep my wits about me in these storms. Nor'easters included. You never know when you need to fly into action pumping water out of a basement, grabbing a tarp to cover a blown off roof or grabbing all the animals and making your way out.

Nothing worse than lying in a stupor and have a tree limb come flying in your window and conking you on the bean!

I never suggested YOU'D be in the stupor... I was talking about me.

If your son gets in soon it's a good thing, no? Your rain should let up soon and you'll get a nice cloudy dry patch for awhile.

I don't think this storm is that big a deal. Ike's another situation. No one knows where that's going yet. Josephine decided to fizzle out, which isa good thing.
