Charley

As a prelude to hurricane Charley’s arrival, we had a tornado warning about an hour ago. The severe thunderstorm warning we’re under right now seems like a relief by comparison.
The Emergency Broadcast System said a twister had touched down about 8 miles from here. The rain was pounding as heavily as I’ve ever seen it — I could barely see the woods at the end of the street here — but it wasn’t too windy.
This weekend is going to suck. It won’t be anywhere near as bad here as the folks in Florida are having it, but that’s just a question of degree. The “suck/no-suck” toggle is definitely flipped to “suck.”
