Tropical Storm Lee

This season we seem to have weaker but bigger hurricanes and tropical storms.

We are already getting the rain here on the Tennessee/Kentucky Border. It appears to have bands of storms as far north as Illinois, Indiana and Ohio. It is still located in Southern Louisiana.

    We’ve been getting steady rain and drizzle off of it all weekend. It’s been kinda nice considering it’s cooled us off a bit. I’m hoping it replenishes the water table a bit too. We’ve had a really bad drought so far this year.

    Went to visit Amy in Morehead today. Drove home in TS Lee. I hope there isn’t widespread flooding. Seems like a significant rain event to me.

    I was flooded out in the Great Flood of 1997. One of the most traumatic events in my life. There was no Government, no police, no fire protection, no electric, No Food and No Water. I feel for anyone that ever gets in that situation.

    Any news on Vermont. All I have heard is the same ‘people’ commenting the Federal Gov’t should not be involved in disaster recovery.

    Tropical Storm Lee knocked over two of my egg plants and one jalopeano plant. I am surprised that it did not blow my neighbors other bird house into mine yardโ€ฆlol!

    That looks pretty rough. We’ve been lucky so far. Nice weather yesterday and for most of today but then about 4:30 it turned overcast and stayed that way. We are supposed to have rain all week. I hope things don’t get rough in your neck of the woods. ๐Ÿ˜

    When the hot air literally bubbling up like boiling water in a kettle. . well, what goes up comes down, and likely in as forcefull a manner. Cityes are like earth has broken out in a rash. . the miles and miles of concrete and asphalt, never seem to be taken in consideration, particularly how it keeps oozing all the sunshine it soaked up during the day into the wee hours of the night. . . like all I hear talk about is carbon emissions . . . . there a lot more to it than that. .
    The general health of the people is deteriorating as the ill effects of our thinking we can poison the air and mow the gardens down . . . like shaving ya lungs. .
    Add to this the excess heat from air conditioners from building and vehicles . . only making it worse, for the rest of us and I’s beginning to see us as sailing on the Titanic. . and heading for our doom. . rigid, with past thinking and all we have been taught, lest having been bless with . .. yep, read your bio. . . am impressed.
    thank you. . as for the storms? ? ? think they’ll keep balancing earth energies out,long as needed. Nature does not waste any time in that DeepArtMend. Humanity has been super busy and driven till driving and flying down the pikes . . haven’t stopped to catch our breath. . . in my having made a statement by giving up driving. a can do in the city.

    I have always looked at the big picture first and fitting all we’ve been give in the over all. we have been busy and productive. . we were riding a wave. we have been give. . humanity as a whole all manner of gifts. . totally new to life on earth. the gifts of electricity and oil and all the brains to go with it wiring the global village brain up . . only is , because money has come into play, the learned are holding out on the rest of us. . which is some we’ve never manage do without our losing in the end. . The days of busyNess and productivity. . are near done with . . from here of on, The universe is about taking the work out of living and having life, come work for us. . . like eveNtide has come, this is about turning the tables on life. practice the act and art of being, of using our heads and standing back, while we for once let our youthful counterparts. kids who are leapfrogging all over us on having inherited humanity’s acquired ckills with the computer. . each one of us is a cosmic update, we are evolution in the process of being journeyed through the everlasting present . . with death being the sleep between lives. . as for the storms, how oft do the winds calm down the moment the sun goes does truly life on earth ought have us call a global emergency. . at the health deficits we’s running . . . this is in fact. . a shift, grand as a cold spell has the sapwood shrink back into the earth . and with the noon day surge with no where to go, forms new buds. . every tree slipcovers itself up with another ring of growth.
    Time for society to take a back seat and let youth’s brilliance, bright and insightfulness. . mostly of the dropouts, for they are the only who remain, with a mind of their own, and not be cowered to another’s thinking. .

    See, now this is why I live in the desert. Yeah, we have no real green stuff and everything is various shades of brown and red, but we don’t have to deal with hurricanes, tornadoes, tropical storms or massive snowstorms. Or, bugs. It is a problem if we get more than a couple of tenths of an inch of rain at a time, but it drains off fairly quick and a good breeze will blow the dirt away as soon as it dries. Sure, we get a little hot every so often in the summer, but as long as “it’s a dry heat” we’re alright.

    Now, for those of you that choose to live in the green, I hope that you are safe, well, and that not only your feet, but also your beds stay dry. :love:

    Not wishing bad for anyone. But for us here in our area.. we need the precip. 6″ below normal, mini drought they say.

    We have pretty good weather here in Vegas. Sun almost every day. but HOT…no humidity though! I like to see the rain. I guess what we dont have, we want. Not the hurricanes and such though. The flooding is horrendous! I sure would not be walking in that water in Louisiana without thigh boots on…water snakes in there and allegtors!! I just saw a couple on the news walking with shorts on in the flood waters.

    I have a friend on the coast in Mass. I haven’t been able to get through on the phone, and I wanted to wish him a Happy Birthday. His house is on top of a hill, but for all I know, he might need a boat, if he wants to go anywhere…
