Bad News: Heavy rains and high winds are heading our way heading up from Houston. Thanks Houston!
Good News: We won't have to shovel it. :lol:

You are quite welcome, Gerald! On the other hand, I always wanted waterfront property without enduring a hurricane! I couldn't get a rain-out at work; the stupid "precipitation" mostly avoided the Yankee side of I-10 and chose to rain down on my shop!

70s here through Monday. Im having my backyard fenced in tomorrow for my pups, the fence company says its a 1 day job. Im looking for someone to grade me a level spot for a carport to get Ruby under. The garage is packed full and I hate leaving a vehicle in the weather.

11:30:Weather map is green (with some yellow splotches) all the way up to OK City and across Arkansas and Louisiana. Looks like it will hit us hard about 4:30, but last night we got lucky and the storm split and went on either side of us.

Same on this end. I alternate between Limestone and my bike. This week it's the bike as no rain in the forecast until the middle of next week. {At least for us working stiffs.}
Long live the 352

We are going to have below freezing temps at night into next week. BRRRRRR. We aren't used to that here in Phoenix but at least no snow. I'm not getting my bike out until it warms up a little bit.
