Me to. It is a big mess today!

poor girls weren't very happy about getting all wet. it has a roof but with all the leaves and what not on the roof every little hole was leaking and the rain has been coming sideways. i covered the top and 2 sides.

Ugh, my brand new chicken coop leaked like a sieve in the post hurricane rain yesterday. Brand new and I may have to tarp it!

I'm glad I live in the desert, but the snow sucks, and we are having a storm move in tonight! I set plywood over the run so the birds won't wake up to the shock of their first snow..

they have closed all the schools now. it's pretty bad here.

DGF still went to work but i doubt many people will be getting massages today.

Oh my, sounds bad- the remains of Tropical Storm Ida? We usually get your weather eventually.
I hope you will all be okay, I know there is flooding in many places there.
Good idea to tarp. We've been through Hurricane Juan, a huge snow storm called 'White Juan', Tropical Storm Noel and several other blizzards and I know how worrysome it can be. Stock up on clean water for the duration, just in case. Eventually we invested in a generator, what a godsend.

I'll be thinking of you...

11 inches of rain in some areas so far

yes it WAS the remains of ida but once it hit the atlantic after crossing land from the south it developed into a nor'easter.
