Title: Thursday's coffee...>>>>>
Post by: Mugwump on November 12, 2015, 06:09:55 AM
..coffee's great this morn'n......as soon as I have another cup, or two?....I'll look out the window to see if we're in 'Oz' or not....and if still in Illinois...check out the trees and house for damage....no tornado here, but the winds were crazy.....bunch of rain too...

We'd raked all our front yard leaves to the curb, the City sucks em into a truck and hauls them away......I'll bet they all have blown down the street ???

I still don't know if I'm going to get the storm.  We had a big blow around 4 am.  Nothing since.  The weather man was funny.  He said he's have needed a magic 8 ball to predict this one.  It sped up, showed down, sped up, and slowed now.  It's loosing strength though so if we do get anything it will just be rain.

All the wind and rain passed through here last night before 10, that I know of. Everything that was in the back yard is still there.

Between my first and second cup I got ten pounds of flake food packed and ready to go out the door.

All is well on the home front. Some wind and rain but temps still in the 50s with a 70 projected for next week. Late coffee is extra delicious.  |^| |^| |^|
