I guess traveling with a foamie is not a good idea either this morning! And my high profile foamie... :?

Mike...

...HIGH WIND WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 7 AM EST THIS MORNING...

HAZARDOUS WEATHER...

* SOUTHWESTERLY SUSTAINED WINDS 25 TO 35 MPH.

* WIND GUSTS OF 45 TO 50 MPH...WITH SOME HIGHER GUSTS POSSIBLE THROUGH 7 AM.

IMPACTS...

* STRONG WINDS WILL LIKELY RESULT IN THE DOWNING OF LARGE LIMBS AND SOME TREES.

* DOWNED POWER LINES AND POWER OUTAGES CAN BE EXPECTED.

* STRONG WINDS WILL MAKE DRIVING DIFFICULT...ESPECIALLY FOR HIGH PROFILE OR LIGHT WEIGHT VEHICLES.
The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten, so build your teardrop with the best materials...

last count 29 killed some just 50 miles from me
all we had was not so high, high wind, lots of rain that only lasted short amount of time.

like I said 50 miles south really bad 20 miles north really bad here not so bad.

I am in the middle of couple of bathrooms and utility room remodels would not like
to see all that money go flying off into the wild blue yonder.

I lived through one tornado the 1974 one that hit Xenia Ohio I lost several old classmates in that one

I have run the gambit of storms. Hurricanes, tornados, blizzards, 1-Typhoon thats enought for this old guy.

I was on the USS Hornet out of Long Beach California headed back from Japan when we ran into a Typhoon the waves
were breaking over the flight deck 50 feet above the water. the spray would hit me 12 decks above the flight deck.
If you stood in a side doorway looking out of the ship it would roll so much one way all you could see was water
when it rolled back the other way all you could see was sky.

wonder how Rosey's boat would have held up in that storm?
