We ate all the Ice Cream now what?

My daughter and I moved inland last night just in case the Right Coast takes a beating. Had to let the dog out at 4 a.m. and rain bands were starting here 10 miles inland.

Video on the Weather Channel showing Route 12 in OBX underwater and gale force winds getting stronger. Seems like a slow moving storm so sure hope it doesn't linger off the coast like Dennis I believe it was did years ago and rain just keep raining and raining and raining for what seems like eons.

Now showing an early version of Wake up with Al from Kill Devil Hills. He looks wind blown in his yellow slicker and Stephanie in her blue one.

It amazes me that they don't have sense enough to get out of the rain, Oh now I get it "special effects" from the scene of those storm stories!

Prepping for Hurricane Earl!

Never to soon to get ready to be ready just in case a hurricane gets to close for comfort. Last night my daughter with the help of her friend and I installed our super dupper Dade County approved corrugated galvanised used only once before storm shutters on the Right Coast side of our beach house in Ole Virginna.

Haven't had to install these puppies since before Isabel hit in 2003. Now that was a storm to remember as we were ordered to evacuate the ocean front and I am glad we did.

May move inland this time, too if things get iffy looking tomorrow.
