I hope you guys are doing okay. When Irma went through here last year, we were in and out in 24 hours. It was scary, but not for very long. I can't imagine days of my hours. I know they have sent FPL crews up there to help y'all get your power back and your streets clear. I think it may have been a NC crew that got us back up and running after a week with no elec. A cold 18pk of Natty light wrapped in paper bags accidentally fell into one of their trucks as thanks. I hope you will be amazed by the help you get and the way everyone will pull together to help out.

Totally bats*it crazy here ....



I've been watching the natural signs here in Maine this year. It was a hot summer and the water temperatures here in the Gulf of Maine are near an all time high. The acorns are dropping off the Oak trees early and there's heavy cone growth on the evergreens.

It seems like there's a lot of solar energy stored up in the atmosphere that's gonna have to find a way of blowing itself off. It usually does that with wind and storms in the fall.

The last time i saw conditions like this was the year when hurricane Kat hit NOLA. I wasn't there, but it looked like entire communities were leveled to the ground from the news footage. Nothing was left standing in the hardest hit areas ? People disappeared and never seen or heard from again ?

My son and his family bugged out of Myrtle Beach yesterday and headed South to Georgia so i know they will be okay, but I'm concerned about everyone else that may end up in the cross hairs of this storm.

I love Dire Straits and that song. I had never (that I remember) seeing the video.

Is that pic from the Thanksgiving turkey give away episode?
