My father-in-law lives in New Smyrna Beach (near Daytona) and decided to stay in Orlando until the storm passes. I saw that the storm is hitting his address right about now.

Glad your safe Mari.

Kay,

He did well to stay in Orlando. It is a smart move.


The eye of the storm is not expected to hit so most likely his place
will be safe when he returns to it.

That's great Mari. I'm so glad that your electricity remained on through this strange Hurricane. BF:hug::hug::hug:

Matthew is forecast to go around the right side of the Bahamas at around 2 PM Wednesday. It would only be a tropical depression, and not much to worry about according to the weather charts. It may go out into the Atlantic, or head toward the Gulf of Mexico. They don't know.

There are two high pressure systems that are forecast to push Matthew away from the coast. One is almost in place now, and the other one is forecast to hit it later.

Nicole is no longer a hurricane, and is forecast to turn away from the Atlantic Coast. It's downgraded to tropical storm. BF:hug::hug::hug:

Thanks, BF.

We will have quiet for now.


Parts of the Carolinas got hit hard it seems.

Your welcome Mari. Now Matthew is forecast to go out to the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, and not down to the Bahamas, and/or the Gulf of Mexico.

Thank goodness. They are showing Matthew headed away from America.:Head-Spin::yahoo:

The sun is shining. There is a little wind, but that's ok. BF:hug::hug::hug:

It's 45 degrees here at 2:42 AM. What a change! We had the hurricane a few days ago, and now it's 45 degrees!!! BF:hug::hug::hug:

air conditioner
 

It was eighty degrees in the house (hotter than outside) an hour ago.

The electronic reader on the a/c said "malfunction."
I got hubby out of bed to fiddle with the machine and told him to call the a/c guys in the a.m.

I was starting to get anxious about sleeping tonight.
Then I heard the a/c eventually turn itself on.


That is one of the most comforting sounds in the world.

I'm glad your A/C kicked on. 80 degrees is an uncomfortable temp to sleep in. You don't need any more barriers there :hug:
