It's getting heavier out there now.
Wish I had a camera...
Check out this ridiculous event map.

Sometimes the internet can be fun.
I'm seeing a reporter standin' out on the beach in Ft. Lauderdale, it's starting to look nasty there.
What the...?
I can't tell what I'm supposed to make of that.
It's roaring and pouring out by house, Sam.
How are you holding up?
out by MY house, I meant :-D
Big ol red cell coming through now.
We're getting some strong gusts now, 40 kts, maybe. It can be hard to tell down in all these trees. I got the AC cranked down more than usual, so if we lose power it'll take a few minutes longer for the place to heat up :-D
So far so good, though, and the radar shows the eye close to the beach up in Lauderdale, so hopefully it'll start taking her down a little soon.
They got out every warning they could think of, including small craft advisory, just in case. Then overlaid them all on top of each other until the map is nearly incomprehensible. It's cool!
Ruthy just called, she's lost power, it's getting nasty but she's not worried about anything too much, except the mourning doves in her Mango tree.
Hope she stays safe! Thanks for letting us know!
Do you know anything about the Shurley Method of Grammar? Is that any good? I hardly know because we used Voyages in Englsh last year, and my mother found a ViE 8th grade edition in a stash my father has owned since he was a boy! I kept it of course, but I think I need something more geared towards 6th grade.
Well, you, Bear and Rose are on the Active Prayer list, so we'll have some more people praying for y'all at Mass this weekend!!
I asked Clare about her friend who I thought was looking for a school that does 3D animation, but I was wrong. She's actually looking to do a major in Sequential Art, and that is what's available at Savannah College of Art and Design. I don't think it's available anywhere else, that's why she really wants to go there. Don't think her parents want her to go that far from home, but if it's the best place for her, it would be great if she could go.
The mourning doves will know how to take care of themselves! I'm keeping Ruthy the girls and her Mama in my prayers. Sam and his lovely bride, too!
I gots a VIE 6th grade book. ;o)
OOh, vey nice!
Congrats! Pretty...plus bubinga is just so fun to say!
I was annoying my roommate with it just the other day, as a matter of fact...
You got the amberburst?
Thanks, Suzi! I do appreciate it!
