    Thanks!

    I pulled myself together as much I could make myself.

    I got a few things done.

    RM showed up in the driveway and called me. He said he lost his keys.

    I just counted my Ativan and took one.

    So in about an hour I'll find something else productive to accomplish.

    Thanks, again!

          It's traumatic when it hits where you live. Traumatic and shocking. I don't know how the survivors in Ashville are coping with what they have been through and are facing.

            Who is this gentleman?

            Should we use hurricanes like we use windmills instead of running from them or stocking up on necessities?

            It boggles the mind!

              I still don't know know how I figured out storm surge wasn't coming here. I don't really have a better answer than intuition.

              They'll probably be another storm and I won't have to start a new thread.

              In the meantime the temperatures are going to drop somewhat dramatically tomorrow. That will be nice.

                My solar power lithium battery device charger arrived today. It can be changed with electricity (I'm giving a full charge now) or the sun (of course) and can power a phone, etc.

                My matching lithium battery power small lantern arrives tomorrow.

                You think about this kind of thing after a hurricane hits and you go without power for days!

                My situation was mild but it was still uncomfortable with no light, no air conditioner, and cold water for several days.

                  3rd hurricane next week forecast Cat 2 or 3 to hit Florida Big Bend area with southern most tract line forecast leading to somewhere on the map that looked like Tampa.

                  So sick of this carp. Not that anyone was planning to but don't move to Florida. It gets hit by hurricane after hurricane and is a reactionary cultural wasteland.

                  I feel like I can never relax. I didn't feel like this living here in my youth and I've never disliked living in any state ever in my life.

                      So Oscar isn't a threat but there might be a threat October 1 to November 1?

                      FEMA hasn't approved the application for damage from Milton which you can see clearly and somewhat dramatically with your naked eye.

                      The computer doesn't want to accept the address.

                      A worker lied or got confused and said applicant refused to give household income.

                      It would be $750. It wouldn't cover the damage.

                        Risk to the U.S. East Coast: this is the most alarming scenario. In this case, a central high pressure in the Atlantic could route storms towards the east coast of the U.S., affecting as a result some areas that have already experienced relevant damage, like in the misfortunate case with Hurricane Helene.

                        East coast?

                        Confusing.

                          We're free and clear for at least 10 days.

                          Hurrah!
