Hurricane Erin is spinning by NC's Outer Banks

I have the son of a good friend from Virginia who works on the Ocracoke Ferry. He tells me everyone is evacuated from the Outer Banks and Ocracoke except emergency workers. They're worried about storm surge and high waves as well as wind.

Up very early today (4:00). We’re heading up to the property to take a look around and take the dogs for a ride on the timber company land that borders us. We’ll take the UTV with us and do some exploring. It’s going to be hot today so our plan is to get up there early and beat the heat. The high temp there will be about 10 degrees lower than here at home. Yipee!

58 now and 90+ expected later. Hotter tomorrow (sporting clays shoot) and even hotter Sunday (golf). I really need to have my head examined being out in all the heat three days in a row. (Okay, this in only one of several reasons my head needs examining)

Thunderstorms rolled through last night and some areas received 2-6 inches of rain. Traveling 70 miles to have lunch with a very good friend and his significant other. Everyone have a good day and weekend!

About the same here, one last August heat wave before we start getting some normal September temps. I do have the advantage of foothills close by to the East and West so don't get sun until later in the day and it goes down earlier. Kind of a bummer in the Winter though as we only get about 4 hours of sun but actually we get so many temperature inversions here in the Winter that we can go weeks with no sunshine at all.
