Makes me feel happy that all we face are hurricanes - at least we get lots of advanced notice.

Down here in south Ala. we are week 2 into a bad heat wave, having august temps in May, no signs of a letup into next week.
So am concerned about power problems, since A/C units are running at max all over the South.

We were in Kettering and are fortunate that they were 10-15 miles away from us. Stay safe.
