Well, our sand and water table has been blown over....I saw a chicken (no kidding it was Frances!) blow across the yard....poor thing was trying to get her feet under her, fastest she's ever "ran" I think :gig

Not as windy now, and hovering aroung 50*! I can handle 50!! :p

Temps are supposed to drop drastically as the day goes on though. :(

Still waiting for the wind. We got some last night which blew down a small tree in the woods but not my "dream firewood" tree.
Not much is going on right now. 49 degrees.

Good luck to you guys! I hope you are all prepared for whatever blows in.

Right now 49 degrees sounds dreamy! We haven't gotten above freezing here in WA for several days. The inside of our barn is freezing, which I don't think has ever happened before since we've lived here. Brrrrrrrrrrr . . . .

Had a really loud clap of thunder here followed by a shower of sleet. Freaky! Hope my birds are okay. Didn't let the dumb turkeys out today. :/

Here's what I saw when I got up this morning - we have mountains! I wish! Actually just some really cool clouds with a split in the middle.

It's tiny bit blurry because I couldn't hold the camera still.

The wind practically blew in my big barn doors! I had to open them against the wind and then move something in that was heavy enough to hold the doors in place. We haven't had this bad of wind in a long time. It is snowing here too but very lightly. Luckily all the animals are fine in their areas. I just gave them lots of hay and they are munching away. I'm glad I don't have to go anywhere. I did my shopping last night.
