Guest Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 We often talk about the weather in our area. Here's a good place to let us know about how your being affected. Anybody get plastered by the remnants of the latest hurricane? We were supposed to get quite the lashing here ( near Hamilton in Southern Ontario), but other then a few strong gusts and a lot of steady rain, it's been rather uneventful here. The wind storm we had last year was by far more damaging around here. I heard T.O across the lake got it a little worse though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstStar Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 The winds were a blowing last night! Went around the house making sure every window and door was properly closed. The wind only needs a small entrance to rip off doors, roofs and windows if the winds are high enough. Funny thing, my wife granted one of her employees a 2 week vacation. Guess where they were going... Yup, New York City! She probably got there (with her bf) a few days before the hurricane hit. So we don't have word yet if she made it to NY or if her area was evacuated. One thing for sure, it wasn't the vacation she had planned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife is leaving on a Caribbean cruise this Saturday (without me). Lucky for her it wasn't last week when the hurricane went through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kinot-1 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Getting plastered today in Southern Ontario. I feel like i'm in Saskatchewan. Heck,,,this ain't nothin,,,,,,,,,,,why, I remember back in '77 ,,,blah,,,,blah,,,blah,,, Seriously tho,,,,the traffic is still moving, and there's only 19 centimeters on the patio. I look at it as a challenge. I'm going shopping (no shoppers ), then over to a friends house to shovel out the driveway. I always carry 2 shovels in my SUV, and will be toasty-warm.

Everything at a standstill here. Funny how little it takes to shut things down. Any excuse to take a day off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They rarely shut down work . In my 31 years of working at Ford ( a 10 mile highway commute), they only shut it down once, because of snow, and I was on my way to work, when I heard it on the radio. . I was within a mile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
