A little unnerving...

...that the breeze is already almost as strong as it ever got during Arlene and Dennis... but the storm is still 250 miles away.

Just announced: County schools are closed tomorrow.

Am still remembering the experience with Hugo in '89, that afternoon when the tide came in... and it didn't go back out. When you live on the coast that is kind of like the sun failing to set. Then, later that night, the tide came in AGAIN.
