But, to follow Kat's good example:

Entire back yard "raked" by mowing.
Leaves blown out around front steps and air conditioner.
GF's trailer tarped.
Small "trees" removed that grew over the season.
Dinner eaten.
Dog walked.
"Find the treats" game completed.
Back on line.

(All of this was not included in the RW stuff that caused the AFK...but FIDO was.)

Good try Fran but you only got one 'like' for that double post. :p

Yes.

Which part of "don't ask" was vague? :lol:
But yes. Small change of small "pop up randomly" twisters. Mostly 60 mph winds that are the issue. The good news is that the leaves have mostly fallen and that reduces the wind damage chances a bit. Besides, the weather people like to err on the side of caution and have "breaking news" all day long about stuff breaking.

Fido is fine CES. Was just a normal thing. And not limited to Fido. Just RW stuff.

Flashlight ready. Weather radio ready. Medicine in grab-bag. Just in case. Only takes a minute.

Biggest thing people forget....shoes! (the night storm times are the worst. These won't hit until after sunrise supposedly).

If I lived down south were they don't have basements....I'd be totally like those "Doomsday bunker" people....Big .... cement bunker...maybe without all the filters and live for 3 months stuff....but ...you know...buried fort knox style room.

Yeah, that's the one Bear. I'm West of you.

Yeah, you just have to hope the neighbors up wind from you raked already. :D

I'm down-wind with a field down wind from me. So I wait until they all get their up-wind yards done, then do mine. If I didn't I'd have to do it twice.

All within reason and about 3 or 4 houses distance.

Bag? :D
