Strange and weird....
10/14/16 at 17:18:21
 
The last couple days have been pretty stormy.
Lost part of the aluminum awning over my deck, and it blew over my old metal windmill.
However, nothing like these guys down below me.
Tomorrow is going to be the worse, how bad, we don't really know.

Hail and tornado, that is all I've ever seen make a drilling rig shut down.

Tornadoes are scary..

Yeah we got some dime size hail today, stuff hurts  Shocked

Tomorrow afternoon is looking like it could be a real bugger, 70 plus winds, with a high tide means problems on the beach, and trees falling up on the land...

In Texas, it's still called sleet at that size. It's not considered hail  until it can bend the sheet metal on a F-150.

Yep, as safe as it can be.
The Boston Whaler ( the smaller one, all open inside like a skiff ) was plugged with water yesterday as it was full off pine/fir needles, cones, small branches, that kept it from draining...
I cleared it all out, but I didn't cover it, water doesn't hurt that boat, well duh....
Unless it gets into the electrical/controls, which is very minimal on that boat, a starting battery, and running lights, is all it has.

You ask because you a wanting to ride out and be my boat wench some day?  Kiss

YIKES, I have heard of it killing cattle, mercy...

They are saying game on, its off the coast of Oregon and heading our way right now. South winds expose us to the most danger, as we lose the Olympic Mountains to hide us from the northwestern storms that are typical winter stuff.
I lost trees on my property last time we got this kind of storm, but none to the house/structure.
They are telling us to be prepared for a couple of days with no power.

I am as ready as I can be. The event is from noon till 10PM.
Wish us luck  Smiley

Look at that SOB.....

That wind in front of that low is really compressed!
If that slides up this side of the Olympics, I am in a world of hurt.
If it goes in at the Columbia River, or Vancouver Island, we dodge a bullet.

Look at that east coast storm, MERCY!

Oh, I wouldn't expect you to get divorced for a one time voyage  Grin

Hey the storm appears to be weakening a lot.
A really huge jet stream connected with it, tailing all the way across the pacific, maybe that just blew the low apart too, hurray!

Yes, hail can be deadly. I've seen trailers that had more than a foot of hail in the living room, cars with every piece of glass smashed and I'm sure the pulverized cattle were tender.
And dime sized hail is hail.  I was just kidding.
