A tropical storm Fay-vor

Well, Tropical Storm Fay is marching this way. So far it's just a big rainmaker - and we can use the rain. We can do without the wind, and as of right now we are just on the fringe of outer winds bands (maybe 40 mph winds).

Nature has a lovely sense of balance. Hurricanes and tropical storms - even stubborn fronts that dump lots of rain - are the great rain equalizers to areas that have been experiencing drought conditions. Even Georgia may get some much needed rain from this system.

If all we get is rain, than I will say thanks for the Fay-vor.

The calm before the storm

We hear this expression a lot, and even use it in various situations. With Tropical Storm Fay (destined to be Hurricane Fay) looming off in the distance, I'd say this expression applies.

Last night there was a full moon and pleasant temperatures for this time of year. Today, it's sunny. It's hard to imagine that all this may change dramatically in a few days. I've seen it happen before so I know what to expect.

I remember from my days living in the Midwest  that the same thing happens with impending tornadoes or blizzards - there's the calm parts before the storms. Eerie how it works out that way.

I hope it stays calm and that next week at this time we can say that Fay didn't bother us, but we'll have to wait to see.
