New tradition! I have learned to get the house freezing cold in case the power goes out. The wife has to throw on her supermarket sweater. This Mexican Hot Chocolate takes the edge off it.

PS it keeps getting worse here. It's been better'n a half gale all day with constant but light rain. Now it's gusting to a full gale with heavy rain and the first rumbles of thunder I've heard all day. Oh, and naders.

Chocolate. It's for hurricanes. Glad your electricity is holding on.

Whole Tampa Bay area is under flash flood warning. No surprise there with all the rain and some storm surge expected. A few more hours of rain expected, though not as persistently torrential.
