Just started up Internet Explorer and saw this disturbing series of warnings on my MyWay home page.

Armageddon? Or just winter weather?

Because I know you're going to ask me anyway, here's what the various alerts are:

  • Seattle: Flood warnings on the Snoqualmie, Tolt, and Skykomish rivers.

  • Honolulu: High surf, rising to 10-15 feet tomorrow on the north shores of all the Hawaiian islands; plus high winds, 30-40 mph with gusts up to 46 mph.

  • DC: Tornado watch, and a flash flood warning.

  • Lebanon: High winds as well, with gusts over 45mph likely.

Y'all take care out there, ya hear?

In weather reporting, "If it bleeds, it leads" becomes "If it encourages you to wear heavy tweed, it leads".

I miss the ocean. The sewage- and algae-clogged lakes around here are not a sufficient substitute.
