HURRICANE LEE and ME

[BLONG7]

We got walloped hard by Fiona last year, winds went as high as 179 kms, it was a scary night with plenty of damage left by the storm and some still remains almost a year later.

True...........that was insane................let's hope Yarmouth, and that end of the province is not where Lee decides to land.............hope all are safe right now.

Northern NS is windy and rain......at this point.

This was about when the eye was coming through so that makes sense. How is the barn making out ?

So far so good. I had my doubts where it was new. Was out in it couple of hours ago.

My old garden shed took a beating though. Must be 30 half torn off shingles blowing around my yard. I wouldn't bother much with it but I keep my generator and ride on mower out there. I'll look at it tomorrow. Shingle it be a few thousand bucks I wasn't expecting to spend. Plus I hate that mess of tearing off asphalt shingles. I might just buy 10-12 sheets of that 1/4" miranti plywood, cover the roof then shingle it. It's only $20 a sheet or so.

You fellows getting much wind down eastard of me? Blowing about 50 mph here, southwest. Seems like it has stalled or changed course. Suppose to die down little more by now

It's quieted down for us last few hours.

Hope we don't have another one for awhile. Like 10 years

The wind was not that bad but the rain was torrential. The Miramichi is up 2 meters overnight and rising.

On this end of the province, we didn't get super high winds or heavy rains but we did lose power for a couple of hours yesterday. The winds are a little gusty this morning, probably getting up to the 50 km range but thats just a light breeze by Maritime standards.

Flickered once, no big deal here.

Power was out for a couple hours yesterday morning, otherwise it just flickered a few times
