  1. I feel for you who have younger kids just starting. I have a senior. They are distributing Chromebooks to every student now, as a requirement. Picked hers up on Monday. They'll be starting from home the first couple months it would appear. Then they will supposedly go 2 days a week for the 1/2 the student body and the other 1/2 will go on 2 separate days of the week. So they will be home 3 days a week when they start to go into the classroom.
  2. News here is still covering it for a large portion of the newscast
  3. This is damage. A small branch it is not.
  4. 0.14" here. Winds dried that right up. A little over 1" of rain in the last 30 days.
  5. Dry conditions look to persist. Need a pattern change.
  6. Never lost power but for those with TMPL service... Municipal Lighting FTMFW.
  7. If this was a Gloria, we would have seen far worse damage over a larger area. The fact that this was hauling along and was so far west mitigated a lot of that potential.
  8. Agreed. Yesterday was more like a severe outbreak on roids then a TS.
  9. Peak gust yesterday was 43 kts. There was only about 60min of strongest winds and they were no where near that high. Virtually no rain, Irene peak gust for me was 50kts and the storm lasted far longer with higher sustained winds, which brought more damage. Sandy only had a peak of 41kts but lasted longer as well. I don't recall that much damage with this one Both brought far more rain here which would contribute to trees coming down easier.
  10. Put that in perspective. The Oklahoma City Bombing was 2.5 tons. This was 100 times larger.
  11. Peak gusts were from 4-5 pm. 60mph would have been a whole different animal for sure but it takes a unique storm to get that here. Jan 2005 blizzard was one of them. Peak gust was 50 here. Most gusts were 30-40mph. Rained for about 15min. 0.14”.
  12. Did I write summer? What does the the date have anything to do with what the outcome is? An hour of gusty winds is nothing extraordinary here.
  13. Agree on the impacts here. Benign. We get these type of events a few times a year here.
  14. Hearing a couple streets have been closed nearby. Liberty and Caswell. Strange that I had just passed thru there not to long ago.
  15. 0.14” of “rain”. Winds will evaporate that.
  16. Comes in waves. Suns creeping out again. Power still on. Not many limbs down near my house location. Closer to Butterfish I saw a few large branches but no trees.
  17. Sustained winds of 20-30 mph and peak gust of 50 mph. Seems to be winding down.
  18. 84/72, sustained close to 20 mph, gust to 30 mph. HEP me!
  19. 88/72, sustained winds around 7kts and peak of 11kts
  20. Toss em out like candy to the kids on Halloween
