Tornado Watch???
Posted By Kathleen David on November 16, 2008
Late yesterday I walked our yard and picked up some stuff that had either been tossed by the wind or it could be. I put our extra cans in the garage long with the rakes. Good thing I did. We had some rather heavy winds last night. I returned a couple of garbage/yard clipping/recycling cans back to the neighbors that they belong to that I had found in my yard this morning. Most of the leaves are down now and many of them like my lawn the best.
I found out later that we were under a tornado watch last night due to conditions being conducive for a tornado to form. None did but there was some damage to trees and property across Long Island.
Peter and I are going to take care of the rest of the leaves either later today or tomorrow early. I want to get it done before the next rain storm blows through later this week.
Right now I am trying to slow down and let my body recover from this cough before Thanksgiving. Caroline’s energy level is normal but the cough persists. She is currently working with a drawing book following the directions and figuring out how to draw things.
I am grateful for things that make my throat feel better.
Yeah, they’ ve had some wild weather in Melbourne (Vic) and South Eastern Queensland over the week end. Here in Sydney, we were kind of expecting storm activity too (being Spring). So far we haven’t had too much. It was a bit nasty on Friday night after quite a warm day, when a cold southerly change came through – brought winds, lightning and some rain. Still no enough rain though. We could do with more falling over the catchments and over the other side of the mountains.
