WEATHER!!!!!

Hey, All!

If you aren't in our area, you're missing a dandy storm! We are in day two of what is predicted to be a four or five day storm. Golfer and I were able to get out this morning and get to work and back home. It is now raining harder and the wind is picking up. This storm is the mutated remnants of Ida combined with a front off the coast and then not moving. There have been anywhere from six to ten inches of rain so far and much more is expected. Some streets have over three feet of water covering them. Because of the wind and heavy rain, the tides are being forced higher than they would normally be. Add to that the fact there is no place for any more water to go and it is a big mess. The next two high tides are predicted to be even worse for flooding.

Golfer and I are okay. Our house sits on a small "rise". In the past when there has been flooding in our neighborhood, the highest water we had was halfway up the driveway. We're in for the night unless there is an emergency. There are two streets leading to our house in our neighborhood. One was covered with water this afternoon and the other was almost covered. We'll just have to see what things are like in the morning. We may be staying home!

There have been some power outages around the area, but so far we are fine with that also.

Nurse J says they are fine. She is working from home; CableGuy is off for a couple days (his regular schedule) and BeyB's school is closed.

Take care and stay safe! More later!
