First Hand Weather Report:

After a few dark clouds were sitting on the horizon, they quickly rolled in and dropped a heavy dose of rain. Mild winds (considering Dennis is forthcoming) for a breif period (maybe 20mph- just a guess since I have never owned a windometer - is that what it is called?) The rain just passed (noon), and the thunder is still rumbling. Overcast skies and some very mild wind continues to blow.

This message is brought to you from my fine sponsors at Flying Dog Brewery, Guiness Brewery, and Cabo Wabo Tequila. :clap_1:

Any future reports may be getting slurred, so don't worry about any mispelling.

Lightning knocked out my internet access for awhile. I'm afraid it might happen again so if you don't hear from me don't worry. ;-)

"Mother Nature is a motha," was the answer to the question posed to the Pensacola Beach General Mgr by the Weather Channel reporter who asked why he thought Mother Nature was picking on Pensacola. I say that the GM is one sharp tack.

I wonder if the Sheriff over in Cape San Blas has pulled his Sniper Deputies off the Beach yet. Reports were that the Deputies were stationed there to prevent any more potential threats of sharks . I think the Sheriff was trying to prevent reporters from reporting stories --only in the Good-'Ole-Boy network of the US of A.

Yes, I was getting a little nervous myself about losing power. Glad you are back on. You are welcome to come over and borrow any of my four AA batteries if that will be of any use.

Stay safe Kurt, Smilin' Joe and all the locals who are hunkered down--here's hoping Denace is kind to the area.

The Sun just poked its head through the overcast skies.
