EasternUSWX Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Yeah man. Hoping it's not one of ours I found in the front yard. Looking at the back of the house I see ours pulling away though. It really is amazing, are you in a sheltered area? There is wide open farmland to the north of me, so nothing to block the wind. Nope open field. But I am like an hour north. I think the mountains are blocking the wind here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

09-10 analogy Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Took a quick walk around and that'll be the last one for a while. Street signs shaking in the wind. It looks like a piece of siding may be getting ready to peel back from a neighbor's house. So this isn't the time to revel in the elements. The house is creaking now, so any poltergists that have been inhabiting it are getting exorcised out. Still have power, still no water in the basement. And we just got our mail delivered.

Jebman Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Low clouds are simply ripping. Moderate rain with wind gusts building over 40 mph. Entire trees in motion. That wind chill is freezing cold. Smaller branches are all over the yard and road. This is NO time for a jebwalk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeoman Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 why?...not all of us are agile enough to browse through 6 threads at one time, with many posts that are overlapping Maybe if every other post wasn't about a power flicker it would be easier..
