Complaining about the weather - 2024 edition

[classicdrogn]

Looks like power outages are likely today and tomorrow due to heavy wind (20-30mph gusting to 55) from the storm moving up the US east coast, so I hope everyone in affected areas are ready to snug up in your hobbit holes. And that they have good drainage, since forecasts are now saying 2-3" of rain rather than just "up to two inches." Fortunately, Dad's appointment is for early afternoon so we should be back before it gets this far, and don't need to go anywhere else for a couple days, but that's wind enough to make trouble driving even before to possibility of things getting blown down into the road or heavy rain making things slick and limiting visibility.

At least it's also warm; an outage with two or three feet of snow and temperatures in the teens (F) like last night would suck even more.
