I worked 2 hours overtime but Mike got home early and got the yard and deck pretty much battened down. This morning I chased trash cans and plants and pots before work. :grin So he has us in pretty good shape for these winds that are blowing through now and will get worse later tonight. I already lost my internet connection once. :?

Wind gusts of 85 miles an hour are forecast for us for the middle of the night and into the morning. The emergency lanterns and radio are out and ready this time! :lol

Very cold here with these winds. The heat is running it is so cold. By Saturday we will be back to 70 for only one day and then cold and snow/rain mix early Sunday and very cold again. Weather here sure is changable.

Ooooh....I do remember those Colorado winds howling around the eaves and carrying away everything in sight. They ripped the Christmas wreath right off our front door one year and sent it blocks away! Garbage bins were always victims too. Nail your feet to the floor Judy so you don't blow away!

It's cold and windy here on the other side of the Rockies too! Tonight I put on my winter parka when I went out to walk the dogs. I was only just warm enough! :( Colour me blue! :(

Hunker down Judy - hope you and Mike are safe. It's not so cold here right now but I am anxious for our winter to begin. I love the cold weather and snow storms. Call me :)D

Beryl - Stay warm!!! Walking those precious pups must be challenging in the cold. It's why I have a cat. :wave

Hope all of you stay safe in these stormy areas. It was still in the 70s this morning when I got up, unbelievable for this time of year. We are hoping to get some rain later today.

It's still dark here, but I know once we can see outside, there will be some damage.

The temps are still very warm in the 70's and humid. But the winds were very bad last night. We had several tornados go through the state during the night.

I'm waiting to hear from my MIL who lives way north of us, and see if she had any damage too.

Strange weather for this time of year...

Very Strange weather. The heat went all night and we had howling winds but it is still dark, I can't see yet. But I don't think the winds got as bad as they said they would. Probably more like 50mph winds not 80.

I hope everyone is OK east of us these winds blew east so be careful around those tornados.

I'm glad that you made it through the night. Stay safe everyone in the stormy areas today. We have heavy rain now, but the stronger storms aren't due until this evening.
