Wow, tropical storms will never mean the same again!
Goodness! We are inundated with rain and high winds. Since we live in the woods, rain-soaked hardwoods (especially after the deficit rainfall this year) means that limbs and trees will come down. Our neighbor has a huge tree growing up through their deck (about 40 inches in diameter) and it came crashing down about 3am this morning. It took out their deck and many trees in the woods. They are so lucky that no one got hurt! We have a lot of little limbs hitting the roof, but no big one yet. Another neighbor lost a really tall tree. It fell yesterday taking others with it. This water-logged situation will stay with us even after "Fay" has passed on through. I made a video from the porch of my studio.It is on Google video. I can't seem to load it here. (It would give you an idea of the rain amounts). The winds are coming in gusts!
Everyone stay safe!

Funny, I thought of recording the event too! But I didn't do it. Too lazy!
