Hurricane Update ...
It's now about 5:00 PM on Sunday. The temperature has been dropping all day, and we now have light rain and steady breezes. The main part of the storm is still predicted to arrive tomorrow afternoon and affect us through Tuesday with high winds and as much as 8-12 inches of rain. Most of the local school districts and state and local government offices have already shut down tomorrow and Tuesday; the Federal Government probably won't decide what to do until early tomorrow morning ... I expect they'll either tell everyone to come to work and then send us all home at the height of the storm, or just call a "liberal leave" day. We'll see.
More later ...

ReplyDeleteWe're waiting for it here in NJ too. Fortunately I'm not on the coast, but we'll get lots of rain and, expected to be worse, lots of wind.
ReplyDeleteHere's wishing everyone stays safe and as dry as possible!
So what are you going to do all day since you just found out you don't have to go to work?
ReplyDeleteLucky you.
We called a customer and asked if we could reschedule and they got angry. Really angry. I found that odd. They told me that everyone was making a big deal out of a whole lot of nothing.
Guess who's going to Arlington now in the a.m.? :-)
Hope you get a day off and have no power outages, Bilbo!
