Hunkering Down for Hurricane Ike
In Home, Weather | no comments yet | permalink
That’s what we’re supposed to do. Hunker Down. Yep - that’s the official stance. Anyway, I got everything on the back patio put up or tied down (I hope) in preparation for Hurricane Ike. This time it really is headed right for us. Should start getting some serious wind/rain by this afternoon, with landfall around midnight tonight somewhere near Galveston.
I’m highly impressed with StormPulse, a really cool website for tracking storms. It’s flashiness is pretty addictive and it has a lot of options. Ah well, I suppose I’m ready — I just hope we aren’t without power for a long time (and I don’t lose tons of roofing tiles).
Everybody else in the area, take care.
