Nine fourteen the next day

I survived Irene. Was asleep by 1:00/1:30!  The 3 espressos i had at 4:00 yesterday did nothing!

The power that was Irene was quite impressive. Would love to experience something like that again, however, my home would not like to experience that again. Too stressful for all involved.

Thanks for tuning in.

12:39am Irene has brought it

Wind and rain.. Irene not playing around.

Kinda crazy and nerve racking.
Can't stare out window any longer, as the trees are to big and the destruction they could cause freaks me out

Every few minutes the lights flicker, but we haven't lost power yet FINGERS CROSSED KNOCK ON WOOD

Its inevitable though.!

Not gonna sleep tonight.

Hopefully the house is still here tomorrow and not blown out to sea.

Will have more updates

Two minutes after eight, breaking out the survival kit

Be safe!

quarter past six on Saturday

well, Irene is here, rain has been constant since noon and the wind is definitely picking up. Gust come through the neighbor sending the rain horizontal.

our neighbors to the north in hyattesville have had a few downed trees (landing on their home)

The gutter out front of the house is now a large creek. Thankfully the drain down the street has not backed up. Fingers crossed it continues to flow flow flow.

This might be a long night

BTW no water in the basement, the crickets are not happy.

Almost three thirty

Wind is picking up.
Home Depot is crazy busy.
People smoking by the propane, crazy.

Irene bringing the fury???? Not quite. But it might get crazy yet.

One o'clock something happening

The Kop singing "i just can't get enough'

Irene still boring.

Thinking of taking a nap later.

46 minutes past noon, irene more of same

And Jordan Henderson scores for Liverpool

Irene is still boring.

Half past noon, Irene knocking on the door

Gentle rain and small bursts on wind.

I'm taking a break from putting together a grill in the shed to watch Liverpool destroy Bolton (fingers crossed)

Uh oh, the wife had close the window a bit. Why? Water starting to come in.

BLTs for lunch, yum!

10 minutes to 10. Where are you Irene?

But a nice warm breeze is a blowing while I enjoy my cup of coffee and the Bundesliga.
