It was drizzling when I was about to go on a lunch walk earlier. I decided to skip the walk and go straight for lunch.

It's warm outside. I came out at 6p.m., as i needed to run some errands, and i even haven't put on my jacket yet! We have a lot of TOOCHI here, that's why it's so hot, and the wind is warm. I'm walking around in my summer pants and summer jumper, lol.

We are having yet another violent storm. The rain is coming down in sheets, and the wind is howling. I've already heard a thud on my roof. I'm worried about the dang trees in my neighbor's yard falling on my house. I hope they withstand the gusts. It's very scary. This was supposed to be a coastal storm, but it's way more inland now. The power just went off and then back on. Ugh.
ETA: Power is out again. Blaaaah.

Sorry PTree. That is really scary. We recently had our last tree removed that was worrying my neighbor.
It’s not too bad here. I’ve been waking on and off listening to the wind and rain all night. We already have some water in the basement. I hope it doesn’t get too bad.
Thanks. I just woke up and our power is still out! I have to go check the basement for water, lol. Fingers crossed.

Sorry to hear about the rough weather PTree! It is absolutely gorgeous here today. I have even opened the windows to let some fresh air in. I will have to shut them and put the AC on soon though. It is around 78 now but heading up into the mid 80's. We are expecting some nasty weather this weekend with that system in the gulf. Of course I made plans with Haley which will probably have to be changed.
It's still blustery as heck here, but definitely not as bad as yesterday. I'm still without power. Thankfully, it won't go below freezing or anything tonight. I had to do my work for my part-time gig at Starbucks, because I could charge up all my stuff there. I'm using my phone for internet and connecting my laptop to it. I just have to watch the data usage, as I have 3 GB per month. I'm up to 1 so far, so as long as I don't watch a bunch of videos, I should be OK. 
No ETA on restoration. The utility says it could be days. Blah.

Geez that stinks! it’s a long time to be without power.It's still blustery as heck here, but definitely not as bad as yesterday. I'm still without power.

Will this crazy wind ever end? It’s crazy out there. I don’t like it.
I know, right? It's still howling out here.
I think I need to invest in a generator. My neighbors have one, and they are wicked loud, but they work.
The winds are finally calming down. Still waiting for power to come back on, but I at least got to wash my hair and have some tea because I have a gas stove. I could light it manually. I was afraid to do it for fear of blowing up the house, but all is good, haha.
It was quite nice today, just under 60 degrees and mostly sunny.

Well it is nasty this morning and I think I will cancel going to the farm with Haley. I woke up at 1 in the morning to use the bathroom and it was storming. We are under a tornado watch though the possibility is very low. They are saying DeLand could get 7 inches of rain. It is supposed to start letting up by noon but the chances of scattered storms/rain remains high. The farm will be a muddy mess even if the rain stops. I would rather go on a nice sunny day! I am very disappointed though as I have to request Saturdays off.

This is so sad and disturbung. Global warming is already here. It's so warm, that even at night i'm walking in my summer jumper and summer pants (without a jacket). The jumper and the pants are not so thin, but i wear them at work, and everywhere else, because i'm a savage! ...And i don't feel like changing anything: i always take a sack with my jacket with me (just in case, moreover it doesn't weigh anything), but i veeeery rarely put on the jacket. I don't feel like staring at my closet and looking for my winter polyester pants and winter polyester coat. And my new winter boots..... are still brand new.
And weather guys are telling us that our Leningrad region is one of the warmest. We are expecting massive floods and wet snow apocalypse.
