August 9, 20241 yr High tide is @ 2pm today. Unusual that the water comes up this far. Guess I'll be shoveling and sweeping up muck tomorrow. Nice neighbor there moved what she could for everyone.

September 21, 20241 yr Do girls have two butts? My mate Nigel said they do but I didn't believe him. So I waited until my Gran left the flat for dialysis so I could use her computer - which is the only one here without restrictions on it because last year the local constabulary came around and said "someone" was performing untoward searches from her IP. Anyway I googled it, and after some confusing results I sort of see it - but it's pretty ambiguous. Sometimes it looks like the forward sensor array on the Enterprise D, only rotated 90 degrees; othertimes it looks like the old token slot on a ca. 1980 tube turnstile; still again, curiously, it looks like a disheveled pile of thinly-sliced deli prosciutto! What's going on?! Are there two butts?
September 27, 20241 yr How are you making out @The_Omega and anyone else down south? Western NC looks awful. Even in GA, SC and FL. Lots of folks going to be displaced.

Atlanta wasn't bad. There was quite a bit of flooding but we didn't even lose power. Storm took an Eastern turn though, so SC got it really bad.

We're fine (thank you), maybe 5" of rain (standing water everywhere) but nothing like out west. Both I-40 and I-26 running through Ashville are completely closed, watching videos of roads that I ride on all the time under 10' of water is tough. I've got a buddy who lives in Asheville, he has lung cancer, and needs a nebulizer to help breathe adequately. He lost power overnight and is suffering without the nebulizer. Really rough for him. Hopefully the rain lets up and the river starts to recede before long. Only problem for us is that a lot of that water is going to make its way this way so our rivers are going to swell and flood again.

September 27, 20241 yr Let's See what DeSantis does now to help the citizens of Florida. They used to call these storms, storms of the century. Not anymore. Now they should call them storms of the year.
September 27, 20241 yr I-40 eastbound, west of Asheville, is gone. This looks like this could be a lengthy fix

September 27, 20241 yr I’m glad y’all are ok. It’s a good thing it went a bit East and spared ATL. The Appalachian’s are just inundated. I’ve never been down that way but have studied the geography and it’s on my list to visit one day. It’s so sad. I was watching a few local tv stations coverage today on line. Saw a dam in eastern TN fail and they evacuated the downtown of Newport TN. Saw that hospital too. Help is coming. Huge storm. It’s post tropical now but the wind and rain are still causing power outages in Cinncy and Columbus OH.
September 27, 20241 yr This was a beautiful little tourist town just southeast of Asheville where they filmed parts of Dirty Dancing

I can tell you in SE Florida that we didn't get hit. Construction on the outside of the building continued all week without a hitch. From what I'm seeing, they got clobbered pretty good on the west coast of FL which is par for the course this time of the year.

It ain't perfect down here, but the government is not the problem.

When I was in school shortly after the Jurrasic era, we were taught that the earth is headed toward another Ice Age.
