Hate to say it, but the next hurricane is just around the corner.  It became a tropical storm last night, will be hurricane by Thursday and will be a major hurricane by Sunday.  It is projected to turn slightly north so if we are lucky it will keep turning north and pass between the coast and Bermuda.

 

If not, this will hit the US by the end of next week... before many people have their power back or repairs done.

I sure hope it peters out before hitting the mainland!  The NE can't handle another storm this fast.

My heart can't handle another storm this fast.  Ouch  That is to say, the last one kept me up for a couple of nights and I'm currently enjoying a reprieve from the bane of weather disturbance.

Latest update shows it turning towards Bermuda.  Bad for them, good for us.

... and now the latest update shows it turning slightly south again in a few days, putting it back on course to be a glancing blow to the Carribean and a direct hit to the US and Bermuda.  As a category 3+.

Our water plant and sewer plant were both flooded and lost their electrical powered equipment on Sunday. We got permission to use water and full sanitary sewer today.

We often camp there all of October, so maybe we'll see you there.
