    The wind overturned three tractor-trailers on Rt 1. This thing is serious.

    Do NOT underestimate this thing! I hope no one else is in the line besides HJ, Abs and myself? Not sure how long it'll be hitting and where next.

    Somewhere around 11am, and just after I had made a post - BAM - and the first warning of an incoming storm was the loss of power. Luckily we have a generator large enough to handle our entire home - it's useless to me unless it restores both my coffee machine and also the internet! Well, the coffee came back but internet dropped for a few hours. Power has been on and off sporadically.

    ....

    SHIT!!

    Was typing above and BAM again and we lost power. Then couldn't even connect via ATT on my phone. Crap is bad around here.

    I need to add a UPS to my local machine. Too many failures and rebooting are not good for your power supply and MB.

    Certainly trying to! Going out with my truck was a mistake earlier, but she's all good in the garage now.

    Lotsa cleanup as we're littered with poor trees shedding on us. Luckily nothing too large though.
