I would not worry about patio furniture unless winds would be gusting above 50 mph and only if she has an umbrella that needs to be taken in. And luckily never had to deal with overly concerned family. Sorry you have to go thru that.
I was just looking at our extended forecast and it shows low 70's for highs and around 60 for lows from next Saturday till Tuesday. That would be awesome for us if it verifies.
Being cautious here. Not going anywhere near big crowds. Only go out for food, groceries, and doctor's visits. I do walk my pups twice a day. Will not be going into any restaurants for at least another month.
I think you can kiss the NHL, NBA, and MLB seasons goodbye for this year. I highly doubt football season will be cancelled due to states starting to open up again more and more.
