Big Bad Ike


Grrrr.... look at this, an assault on my beloved home state.

It has yet to affect our weather but we are under that green area in this image.

People say nothing will happen. What kind of idiot belittles the awesome elemental power of weather? I'm no weatherman but I have studied the weather most of my life so I know a thing or two.

This is a very unusual hurricane. It is much larger than the norm and its winds stretch out over a greater area. I hope my cats stay in a safe place when Ike slings something our way.

I don't remember a hurricane affecting the weather here in LC in my lifetime, but I've only been around 32 years.

My weather radio is ready. Got some batteries for the flashlight and I have water and soda and things to eat. the power here goes out in a typical t-storm, you know. This is anything but typical.

If it proves to be nothing, then well right on. We don't need tropical tempest here in the Heart of Texas.

I'll keep ya'll posted. Take in the houseplants, it's going to be windy tomorrow.
