The remnants of Hurricane Jeanne are blowing through my area now. I know all we are getting is a bit of a breeze and some heavy rain so we have it MUCH better than the folks in Florida, but I think I saw a cow blow by my window this morning as I was driving to work.
With the tornado we had a couple months back and all this rain, I’m looking forward to winter.
I;m surprised that anyone is deciding to remain in Florida anymore after what all the hurricanes did so far this season. I hope there aren’t anymore on the way. They haven’t affected Indiana at all so far, which normally would be good, but as I said before, we could use the rain. I think we are going to make it through this whole month of September without any rain. I have this fear that means we are going to get a ton of snow during the winter to make up for it. I’m glad Chris is looking forward to winter, but I sure as heck am not!
Phew! We could use some rain here — on the grass! But, let me tell you, we have flood alerts because the Ohio River is (was) so high. Now that I typed that, I haven’t been chirped at by the weather bug for a while, so maybe the river’s gone down some.
One of my adopted grandmothers houses has already been blown away this hurricane season. My mum and her went to the other FL house (the one still standing) a couple of days after ivan hit…and were held under lock down during Jeane. They were fairly luckly this go around…they didn’t get a whole lot of damage. Their flight here was cancled but should be home in a few days.
I would like to direct people to this map, which suggests that “God” sent the hurricanes to the republicans…(it might take a second to load since photobucket sucks…but it’s amusing and worth the wait)
