Lucky us! Power was out between 3pm last night to 10am this morning, tons of rain, lots of wind and power keeps blinking off and we're about to get hit again. What fun!

Only 2"? Last week we got 13" in two days. I am glad I don't work EMS up there! Lol

It's a record for September. We've had bad storms before, but it's more about the wind and weak trees that take out power, not so much the rain. We didn't flood this time. Our basement turns into a swimming pool.

Reminds me of the 1970's when the green peace movement and what I thought of as radical hippies were screaming about global warming. I remember several dealerships near my home had the big SUV's trashed. Here we are seeing the results of ignoring the warnings, they were right.

Not necessarily. Most people don't realize there are maps that show 5,000 years ago, Antartica had no snow. That's not that long ago. I ran accross a pics of pyramids. Maybe a hoax, but is it really so hard to believe? Plates are always moving, Pakastan just got a island, the earth even changes axis. The world is constantly changing. So what makes us think we have anything to do with nature?

It was just confirmed on the news, at 7am this morning, there was a tornado in Peirce Co. Washington, which flipped over train cars, ripped the roof off a building and lifted a car to put a board of nails under the tires. It's very rare. Nature has a sense of humor after all. Maybe I'm in a world of my own, but I would choose global warming over global cooling any day. I'm a tropical people. I don't care for the cold  |
