Us Brits are expecting a hurricane
Similar to the 1987 one, overnight. Boyfie and myself are tucked up safely
in the house, so no need to worry about us. Whether it will happen, I don't know. It might do, our weather forecasters are quite good. I'll tell you tomorrow. If I have power.. Tweed |

Are there any others in the path of the storm? I hope you have plenty of batteries. The worst one for me was several years when Hurricane Rita tore through here. I needed *lots* of batteries for that one--we were without power for seven days. I hope the hurricane misses you or is a mild one. MaryL |

Sootie's been out and is now looking through the bedroom window. I've got the week off work but need to go in first thing tomorrow to take my identification. I've worked there for 40 years but they now need me to prove who I am. It's not personal it's the rules. DH had to it a few months ago. I forgot to take it in last week as life was chaotic. If the weather's too bad they can just wait. Judith ~~~~~~ The requirement for your ID sounds like what happened to me. I taught at the university for 42 years, then retired. The department asked me to come back as an adjunct professor and I did it for one year. Then the dean's office needed a new resume. Fortunately, I had kept it up to date for annual evaluations and merit processes. After the year as an adjunct, I told them that I was now retiring "for good." Take care of yourself. I hope the hurricane passes without any major damage. I suggested in my reply to Tweed that you have lots of batteries on hand. We were without power for seven days after Hurricane Rita, so I went through a large number of batteries. MaryL |

I wouldn't begrudge him that in the weather predicted. Jill |

Tweed How can ANYONE deny climate change? in the U.S., the Upper Midwest OCCASIONALLY gets snow in October, but it doesn't stick around, this early. (I remember a Minnesota blizzard November 11, 1941, and that was considered early.) Now they're getting heavy snow all through the grain belt (and the media is silent about the dire effects of that on this year's not-yet-completed harvest). |

Now they're getting heavy snow all through the grain belt (and the media is silent about the dire effects of that on this year's not-yet-completed harvest). It's been a little chillier than usual this month where I live this year. Nothing terribly drastic. I rarely even get to wear a coat for more than a couple of months. There's still a good harvest to be had in many places. In the Carolina lowcountry we have a longer growing season than the mid-west. Rarely even frost. I think the point of the post was we should be sending purrs to folks in the UK. They're not used to "hurricanes". Jill |
