The winds they are a-comming

Yes, the winds are on our way here in my little part of Florida. Thank goodness the hurricane has been lowered to a tropical storm. At this point in time they are expecting about 60 mile a hour winds. Hubby has been running around our yard trying to store any possible "missals" they may take off and fly causing damage to our or anyone else's property. So we are "Hunkering down" and preparing to face the beast. I am so glad it is not a hurricane. Hope everyone out there is happy and healthy.

@VivaLaDani13 I wasn't thrilled about the damage. Onw of our neighbors left all their outdoor furniture out and they became destroyer missiles. One other of our neighbors also ended up with a piece of it flying into their home.

@HazySue It still sounds like not a fun time. I hope you will be safe and take care and let us know that you made it through it.

We were fine. Besides the supplies we might need if power left us we have a battery operated tv.

For some reason our winds here seemed to tear through the yards and send things through the air.

We had a big one from someone else yard. It flew through one of screen room screen room screens and then through the sliding glass door leading to it. But, we are ok and they can be fixed.

That photo reminded me of my life in Ireland ages ago. I used to hold tightly the hand of my husband so I didn’t fly when there was suddenly a gale when going home from my work. That was a happy life though.

What a nice way to remember a gale. When you think of a storm you can remember how safe you felt with the hubby.

Stay safe. Fortunately it seems to be moving along fairly quickly. You will definitely get some heavy rain.

I was glad to see the speed that it was moving. At least it didn't stay with us as long as it could have.

I am glad you didn't have the stronger wind. It's not fun to have something from some one elses yard fly through a sliding glass door and a big screen.

We were safe enough. We had all the supplies we needed and moved anything that could be a 'missal' into the garage.
