I'm sitting in a lunch tent. The frame is bent and I'm all wet. They just want us to wait this out.

Luckily, I'm in one of our one story offices today. Weather like this, in a 20 story hi-rise building sucks. Especially when you get trapped in an elevator with some crazies. Surprisingly, I haven't received any messages about power outages.

The winds flipped over my son's big wooden playhouse, but the trampoline 15' away never moved. Freaking crazy!

Thanks,
The stills are nice to see. I can't help but feel glad no one had that land on them

"Tree salad" - that is a good term for it.

Good chance to crank up the generator and give it a good little run since my power is out now. Had a trampoline pole go threw a guys windshield at work looked like a spartan spear..
