Winter is officially here, got half a foot of snow overnight that's stuck around, about the same expected for today. Fun times.

I will already admit up-front that I will be bitching about the cold by January, but mid-80s in early October sucks.

Mother Nature not done with us yet-Michael could be a Cat 3 when it comes in over the Florida panhandle before swinging over the Carolinas as a Tropical Storm. Be safe all in his path!

Talking to friends in Panama City and there is already some local flooding at the local community college. New forecast is putting it closer to a Cat 4 than a Cat 3.

Holy cow. Augusta, GA is under a tropical storm warning...forecast calling for winds 50-70 mph. Augusta is, uh, far inland.

Its really odd. We heard about Florence for literally weeks, and I feel like the first we heard of this one was 2-3 days ago.

Not really. Florence formed in the Gulf, rather than off the west coast of Africa.

Said that backwards. Michael formed in the Gulf--much closer to us.

Florence also moved a lot slower this one, and did a lot of changing course. And at one point, was predicted to get pulled away from America by troughs and fronts.

Once they knew the track, I don't think it was so unexpected. Water temps are 5+ degrees warmer than usual in the Gulf right now. It just happened quickly because it didn't have an entire week+ to come across the ocean from Africa since it developed in the Caribbean.

Panama City Beach is more well known but the immediate pictures from Mexico Beach are brutal.

Egad. We are now under a tropical storm warning here in Greensboro. It is more than a 10-hour drive from here to Mexico Beach.

It just occurred to me that in the 3 1/2 years we've lived in this house in Greensboro, we've had FAR greater impacts from tropical systems than in the eight years we lived in freakin' Charleston. *shurg*

We are going to get minor flooding this week from all the rain in the upper midwest. It is finally making its way down the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. It will back up the Meramec river (which goes through my town).
Crazy stuff.

We have been without power at my home since a little before 3pm yesterday and we've given no estimate for a fix. (Usually they are good about giving one immediately.)

So while all the craziness going on today with the pipe bombs, even crazier in the US territories in the Pacific, the Mariana Islands. Cat 5 typhoon with sustained winds of 180 mph and gusts up to 220. No reports yet on damage, but has to be pretty severe.

I'll never make fun of how a non-Northeast location handles a minor-to-moderate snow event again after seeing what happened in the NYC area tonight. My normal commute that is about 3 miles door to door which takes me about 35 minutes (20 minutes of which is walking) took me just over 3 hours today. And it was only that "good" because I bailed on waiting for a bus after standing in one spot in line for an hour and tried an entirely different method to get home.

We had a minor ice event around Lexington Wednesday into Thursday. Surprisingly they didn't cancel or delay school. And, as a bonus, we got some wrap-around snow last night. This is a bit too early for my liking.

Got 0.35 inches of ice in Dayton yesterday. My bushes are toast.
Luckily no branches down in my yard or on my house. I never lost power, but a bunch of people are going into day 2 with no power.

We lost power between 3 and 5am Wednesday night. I haven't had a chance to assess any permanent damage to limbs since it's been raining, sleeting or snowing for most of the past day, but several branches were bent all the way to touching the ground when the ice was at its worst.
