First look around our immediate area … Looks like we escaped major issues (damage) … That’s only looking as far as the eye can see from our front porch on Happy Valley Road, Elizabethtown … Others may not have fared as well…
From the same view, we never lost electricity. Rainfall totals near 3 inches … unofficial, of course…
Yesterday’s high temp … upper 60s … high wind in the upper 20s to upper 30 range with occasional gusts in the mid to upper 40s. Those numbers will vary. All in all, we are fortunate…
Just happy it’s over with as little damage as possible … again, a front porch assessment.
The weather folks provided good coverage … local and nationwide…
Rain came at a good time, best I can tell … fields are clean…
Now, we begin, all over again … Today’s forecast is for sunny skies with a high near 53 … windy, gusts as high as 29 mph.
Partly cloudy tonight with a low around 34 and more wind … gusts near 15 mph.
Sunny, Thursday, with a high near 58, windy, gusts as high as 18 mph.
Suggestion, if you have questions related to scheduled events, best to call ahead to confirm.
#2 ranked college basketball team, and undefeated prior to last night … Houston lost to Iowa State … 57-53. And, Mike Vrabel, Tennessee Titans NFL team coach, was fired yesterday…
Sad situation in Wilmington. Young high school female coach resigned because of an attack on her by an unruly parent … Team was off to an 8-3 record … Shameful…
On a personal note … My former boss and attorney … 2 people … will be in the area today, barring unforeseen complications … Looking forward to spending time with former comrades with the NC Association of County Commissioners … Short visit, checking on former employee … Good friends … Great memories…
