i’ve seen bad but 50 MPH gusts is crazy to see when it’s raining. Be careful on your drives to work this morning guys. There shit all over the roads and throughway driving won’t be easy for some. ---

I went out to my car this morning to find a pine tree laying across the hood. Luckily it didn’t do any real damage. I’m sure the hood is scratched to shit though. ---

Power stayed on at my place. Most of our trees that had any chance of falling in Amherst already came down with the Oct storm. Probably the strongest wind gust I’ve seen since we moved in 5+ years ago. There was a guy taking pictures of a large pine tree on top of his 4runner over on Ranch Trail that I saw when I went to work. That’s a shitty way to start your day. ---

3 people have told me this morning that they woke up at 4:30 because of this. I did as well. I guess that was the worst of it. I looked outside and remember thinking never seeing pine trees moving like that before… ---
