[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...trains running on time this week, and A/C operative?

We got notice of LOTS of rain a little north of us, and enough here. We will see.

Hi again, Kathy - this morning I got to the station and as I pulled in I saw a dozen or so DHS and Maryland ATF Police standing directly in front of my space. They boarded the train and spread out into the vestibules of each coach. They rode all the way into Washington with us.

Last evening we were hit with a line of strong thunderstorms - trees down in my neighborhood. I don't think it was a tornado, but from the damage I saw it must have been at least a microburst.
