They are mostly calling for high winds tomorrow. I hope the winds knock down our one maple that got hung up 2 years ago. If it falls, I'll have a half cord of seasoned wood! :fl
...hope like heck it MISSES your house..... :fl

It is about 300' from the house, hung up in the woods and the winds are expected from a direction that would aim it away anyways.
I don't want any surprises from the trees right around the house, though. :/

I was driving in it last night. It was rain from Westlake to Oberlin. Then as I was driving down SR 58 the roads slowly got slushy. By the time I got into Sullivan, the roads were very slushy and slick. This morning it is all melted and definitely warmer. I missed the news last night so I don't know what is in store for us today but it is very windy here.
