[JEBar]

we just got word from back home that things have settled down and Elsa us headed for Virginia Beach .... enough wind to put a few trees down but none very close by

We hardly felt anything here in WNC. Just some rain overnite last night.

Rained 10 straight hours. Nothing to heavy. Heck, the creek out back did not even come close to over flowing. Heard from my crazy neighbor ( love her to death) that some trees were down in the ravine. I will go exploring, if I can get this body moving. Already on my third cup.

Elsa his working on NY and surrounding areas .... hopefully she will soon leave the US and die over a cold ocean

Tropical Depression Fred should come ashore sometime tomorrow morning with its eye over the Florida panhandle .... they are anticipating it to be a rain event .... "Along with the likelihood of flooding in urban and low-lying areas as well as gusty winds that can lead to sporadic power outages, there is the potential for isolated tornadoes and waterspouts to touch down. Isolated, dangerous and damaging tornadoes can spin up anywhere over the Keys or across Florida on Sunday. The risk will expand later Sunday to Monday to include the panhandle as well as southeastern Alabama and southwestern Georgia."

Fred cane ashore yesterday afternoon with wind gust of 65 mph and heavy rain .... its moved northward and is now in Georgia/Alabama near with Atlanta where it has spawned at least one tornado

[JEBar]

heavy rain from Fred really worked on Western NC today .... many creeks flooded and mud slides were common .... west bound lane of I-40 closed due to a mud slide just west of Asheville .... the slide is supposed to be cleared by later today

Got a hurricane brewing up in the Caribbean and also one out in the Atlantic.

Maybe we'll get some rain from one of them. Kind of a hard way to get it though.

Looks like Cancun is taking a beating right now. Now that thing will be in the gulf and gather strength.
Wonder which direction it will take now. If it turns north look out.
