I think you owe somebody $20. We're getting the outermost bands as we speak. It's raining downtown.

Yesterday our neighbor asked if we were ready for the hurricane due to arrive on Sunday. I hadn't even heard of the tropical storm let alone a hurricane. Guessing we hadn't been through one yet, she kept on going & listed everything that we should have for the coming hurricane.

I want my 20 dollars. I have plenty of rain over here, and it is a very nice day at the moment. There is actual wind outside!

No we are not. The rain we are getting now is related to a trough along the upper Gulf Coast that is running around the edge of the retreating high pressure. It has nothing to do with TS Don which does not really have any feeder bands at the moment.

Yep... The leading edge of the storm is still about 280 miles out to sea.
