EnviroCan has issued something called a "special weather statement" warning that the island will be hammered by a succession of severe storms beginning tonight and continuing through Saturday, possibly into Sunday. It appears these storms are out in the Pacific now barreling their way toward us. At least three, maybe four.<br /><br />We're used to severe storm events, especially over the winter season, but this time the authorities are telling us to take some unusual precautions such as ensuring we have a supply of cash at home. What in hell for? I've got gas for my stove and hot water heater and plenty of wood to heat the house. It sounds as though the electricity will likely be out for a few days but that shouldn't be insurmountable. I did call my insurer to review my household policy. Outside right now it's sunny and quite calm. That, it seems, will change in a few hours. Oh well, see you guys on the other side.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7884128379999766348.post-28455708535068299012016-10-12T12:58:41.666-04:002016-10-12T12:58:41.666-04:00Those who continue to deny the facts are betraying...Those who continue to deny the facts are betraying the entire world, Owen.Lornehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15741324981120408977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7884128379999766348.post-18846066782651939152016-10-12T10:57:46.372-04:002016-10-12T10:57:46.372-04:00The evidence is everywhere, Lorne.The evidence is everywhere, Lorne.Owen Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06464860078574618579noreply@blogger.com
