Big storm coming in

It wasn't bad earlier but now at 11pm it's insane. I went to bring my bags to my car at work (I do this so I'm not holding them trying to lock the door). I almost blew over and a bucket (empty) flew by. I ended up chasing it down in the parking lot. It hasn't rained for a few hours but the temperature has dropped almost 15 degrees and I'm sure the rain is not far off. Hoping it stays away until I finish work.

It's a rainy windy morning here in the Maritimes. There were 90km/h winds forecast for the Tantramar Marsh area. I think I'll stay off the highway that crosses the marsh until this blows over.

@Morleyhunt That name just begs me to look up what you mean when you say "Tantramar Marsh."

@sallypup Tantramar Marsh makes up the isthmus between New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. At one time this are grew much of the hay for the New England farmers.

Incredibly windy Friday in St Catharines. I thought for sure a major branch would come down from the tree out back, but, so far, only twigs and leaves were coming down. Too dark right now (6:32 am) to see. At least we're not in Ottawa.

@ricki_911 I half expected a limb or two to fall from the big old tree in my backyard but it didn't happen. However, I did spend half an hour picking up twigs and small branches this morning.

Agree! My cousins and a few friends live out near Ottawa luckily weren't hit real badly (they are alive I mean lol). I was lucky a tree branch fell at work but right between my front of the car and building.

It was windy here in southern Maine this morning. I was worried that we might lose power because of it. But fortunately that never happened. Now their is almost no wind.
