Ophelia's gone / myLot

United States

September 23, 2023 9:10pm CST

We survived. Lots of rain. Some gusty wind. A few dead branches down. Leaves everywhere. No damage that we can see. Our power stayed on here. Oddly, Son2 lost power for a few hours, and he's about 100 miles west of here. I hope the rest of the myLotters in Ophelia's path fared well. Now, it's time to get some sleep. I'll leave you with another storm-related song by the Coastal Cohorts.

A restful night would be wonderful after the fitful sleep I had last night.

I am glad to hear everyone is okay, and that your son’s power outage wasn’t a 24 hour thing.

Being they were so far from the wind field of the storm, I have to wonder if the reason for them losing power was actually storm-related.

Gone from here too, although it might be drizzling a bit here I can't tell. Earlier it looked like the sun was about to come out. The sky is light though so it probably won't be too long. Everything stayed on here PTL.

Today was a bright sunny day here. It usually is following a tropical storm or hurricane.

Lovely song thanks DW. Glad it avoided shutting your power off but too bad it got your son. Happy Sunday.

Thank you. I will get lots of exercise tomorrow, picking up all the twigs and small branches from the yard.

Thank you. We were lucky the storm didn't track more our way.

@RubyHawk I'm thankful it didn't spin off any tornadoes. Previous storms have, and one came very close to our house. It passed through the woods between our house and the next.
