Default Anyone Getting Hit Hard From The Storms?

Just want to see how everyone's doing from the recent storms. Everyone cool? Much love from the West Coast.

Nothing too bad here. We've only had about 3.5 inches of rain in the last 12 hours. They were saying 20 inches from the storm, but that hasn't started yet. The storm is stalled out in The Gulf. We may start getting heavy rain later, like six or seven hours from now. The wind won't be bad, just the rain. So far so good though.

Thanks for checking.

...and then it will be in my back yard! I'm on the east coast of FL so hopefully by then it will die down quite a bit. Definitely turned off the irrigation system though. And to think I have 8 yards of mulch for the kids playground and the irrigation guy coming out Saturday morning. This should be interesting.

Actually it's very nice outside. I was smoking a cigar and drinking a few brews outside with my pool lit up. This is probably the nicest night we've had in Tampa in 4 months, at least so far..... I have all my windows/sliders opened up with the nice turquoise pool lit up. Not too bad for a tropical storm.

It's now Sat. evening almost and nothing really going on. Sort of weird. We were forcasted for 90% chance of rain and nothing so far. We got all the yard work done...actually I didn't do much but I did supervise the dude...hehehe. Started off with a couple brews and now working on some daq's Sandy made...yummy buzz

Yeah, it was weird. I didn't see one drop of rain today. I was afraid to wash the car too.

Just washed my baby this morning. If it were a bit clearer outside I'd love to take some pics to show off the 1" drop and all the Carbon Fiber goodies under the hood!!!

NVR -

I just got some new springs yesterday (Neuspeed). It dropped the S around 1.5-1.75in. It looks wicked nice! S is filthy, though... I'll get her washed soon and take some pics. Congrats on the mods!
