Oh sweet Lord! Not something you want to wake to.

Hopefully none of you equipment was damaged.
A leak that big should be easy to find. Good luck.

Debby is bringing the rain down. It rained here in Jax all night. It's going to go around us but looks like we're going to have rain today and tomorrow.

Ouch! I hope your computer is OK. Hopefully, that's the worst of your impact from Debbie, and ends up being a fairly minor, easy fix.

I'm sorry to hear of your plight. I hope the damage isn't too severe.

Debby's been little more than a nuisance where I live.

Looks like we won't see much, if anything, from Debby where I live. Y'all hunker down and try to stay dry.

They’re predicting lots of flooding and storm surge here. As an island, we have waterways every where!

We are catching a nice breeze from Debby, blue sky here and breezy. Temps are supposed to remain below 90 today here in Opelika, but we will see. Hope everyone stays safe out there.

You're saying that Debbie is pleasantly blowing you?

Wow, wishing everyone caught in the storm well. Be safe out there. Turn around, don't drown. Don't play with downed power lines, per Louie the Lightning Bug.

Well, I have a leak in the roof of my shop, not a big deal, but a PITA.
Driving to lunch.
My next project.
