The wind seems to be dying down a bit. That's a good thing. But, flood warnings are in effect for just about everywhere. I live on a hill, so I have never seen any flooding. But, there is water over the roads in places and is supposed to get worse with some flash floods. In the eastern part of NC there is power loss and such, but they are already getting that back online, so to speak. I have the TV going so I can track progress. It's still 3 more hours until the center of the storm is "parallel" with Raleigh. And, by late afternoon it will be gone. Strange, how a hurricane/tropical storm is contained, sorta. When it's gone, it's gone, a bit like a tornado, but much bigger. The sun comes out and it's like it never happened, except for all the damage they leave behind.
I think I will hang at home today. I don't want to deal with the weather. No gym. Ack! Yet another excuse not to work out! Blah. Slacker..... I do need to start tracking the next storm, tho. The cruise I really don't want to go on is next week. Why don't I want to go? Ahh, part of it is the bandaid, but only a small part. I didn't plan it. WTF? A cruise in hurricane alley right in the middle of the season? Well, my brothers will be there, so, I'll go. That is, if the next hurricane doesn't cancel it. But, I anticipate that the ship may be rockin' and rollin'. Hope not.
Y'all on the coast stay safe today.
