Looks like that system coming across is going to be here in the early a.m. I guess those of us in the south need to hunker down. Looks like it might get a little bumpy. Stay safe southern peeps!

Make sure to have a generator. That's to make sure the beer stays cold.

We're in Charlotte for the night on our way to Folly Beach SC tomorrow.

Carrying speakers on the truck roof. Shrink wrapped the boxes but high winds will suck.
Got them in the hotel room for the night at least.

Scott, make sure to go eat some Melvin's BBQ for me, and stop at Bert's and say hi to the hippies while you are at Folly!! Oh, and get some of that fresh seafood at Crosby's on the way in to the island.

They were off on the timing, but it now allows for some daytime heating to make the storms more intense.

It took it's time going through here. Lots of lightning and thunder. Power momentarily went out at about 3am.

Suns up and no apparent damage.

It rained real hard up around Indy last night. I finally called it quits about 9 and got a room. Traffic was only moving about 40 on I-70. Thought maybe it would be nice on the trip home today, not a chance. Rained all thru Ohio quit around Indy and then rained all the way down 37 and I-69. Finally stopped raining down here, we got 2 inches yesterday, a half inch today and 3.57 inches for the month so far.

46 here...Thought about going to Jekyll Island yesterday, and staying until tomorrow, right up until I looked at the forecast. Not going to waste my time at the beach if it is cold.
