You’re getting wind from the storm system that will blow through here soon. The center is well north of you, and will pass north of here, but it’s sucking in a lot of air as it moves across the country. At least the really cold air won’t come down this far south.

We be windy tomorrow but it’ll really kick up by this time tomorrow night, and it’ll be raining by then. They say this part of TN will get the strongest winds. Gee, thanks!

There’s a lot of concern about power outages because the trees are weakened by the lack of rain the past four months. Could be a lot of them falling over or dropping large limbs. I am NOT looking forward to this storm.

It’s cold but it isn’t supposed to drop much more overnight. And at least I don’t have the snow Kathy has.

Our wind right now is a steady 29 mph, and the highest gust was 49 mph. Just the sound of it is making me restless and on edge. I really dislike that sound.

I hope none of your trees fall nor that any other trees fall on power poles in your area. You don’t need that aggravation. At least we aren’t going to have the white-out conditions that OK and KS will have. Ugh. I can live without blowing, freezing snow and all the accidents that it will bring.

Well, that was about 4” of light fluffy snow, and it is filling in right behind me. I’ll shovel again before I go to bed.
