Zoey has a neurotic personality and is afraid of many things, and still barks at the neighbors. However, with Rhyn coming in to our lives, she seems to be learning that there isn't a need to be so afraid, nor bark at the kids so much. So the older is learning from the younger - very nice. :angel:

We are just biding our time and battening down the hatches for the mega wind storm, expected in a few hours. It has been raining for 3 days now, off and on. We've periodically had some 20-30 mph mini wind. This one is supposed to have 65 mph sustained winds, and be the strongest in years. Because we do not have tall trees in our immediate neighborhood, losing power typically does not happen. However, I know people 30 miles west that have been on generator power since yesterday afternoon. This storm should be hitting our Vancouver, BC neighbors to the north, too.

It's crazy. Like rainmageddon/windmaggedon :lol:
Luckily we are kind of protected up here from the winds but I know just south of me in Vancouver and up into Howe Sound, it's gonna get ugly. There have already been lots of trees down and a 15 year old boy was killed yesterday by a falling tree :sad:
We did however have a massive dump of snow yesterday (not impressed), and thankfully it was of the very wet variety and only lasted about 45 mins. All I could think about was all the weekenders driving up the highway and whether or not they were kicking themselves for not putting their snow tires on yet. Snows are (apparently) mandatory on this route as of October 1st, but a lot of people chance it. I sorta forgot to take mine off last spring :whistle:
Stay safe Miss J and hugs to the family - furry and otherwise. I'm heading to The Fairmont now for a drink and some Lobster Mac 'n Cheese :smile:

Also: get hunkered down, eh? to @BookerMoose @muchstuff @missmoimoi and anyone else around here. And to @couturequeen on the other side of the border.

Yup, Vancouver here, and it's raining pretty hard with fairly gusty winds, I think we're in for an interesting evening!

That does look ugly. We filled up some buckets and stockpots with water, took showers and I sent DH out for a growler of Mac N' Jack's. It is pretty windy, but not much rain. Corgis do not want to go out in the spooky wind. Be safe out there NWesties.

Weather check, coastal area to the south of San Francisco, we are in a lull after some pretty good rain. Wind is slightly calmer now too. We are hunkered down this weekend, expecting to stay close to home.

Sadly poodles seem to enjoy it (at least this one). Won't let him out alone as it's skunk/raccoon hour...Just changed clothes and dried off and I do believe he's thinking another go would be nice :cursing:
