The rains of Michael have begun. I’m expecting that is all we’ll get (RATSO!), intermittent rain and some wind.

Hurricane Michael has made landfall as a Category-4 storm.

Talking Heads seem to have forgotten about monster storm Hurricane Camille that hit slightly to the west of Michael in 1969.

Highest wind speed at landfall of any hurricane anywhere in the world.

I remember Camille. I was actually in the same house I am now. We huddled downstairs listening to the radio and the tv as the storm raged about us. We’re well aways inland, look for Auburn, AL on a map, but Camille was quite terrifying. I’m always concerned for the spin-off tornadoes which can be quite deadly, too.
