Tired of hearing him say it..ruins the thread.

In your settings there is an ignore feature. I did that with him ages ago for the same reason.

It's 3:30 am here in the Tampa area and the constant sound of rain is keeping me from sleeping. I imagine we've had at least 4 more inches, probably more, since I last posted. We still have power, tho it must have flickered at some point as the stove is blinking. Our retention pond out back is super full. I will be curious to see how bad the flooding is tomorrow in lower lying areas.

Finally got your Tampa storm there! Albeit not a Cat 7000, but something.

Not much left of it on radar. But gusty enough for some scattered power outages in NE FL still. 14k no power in the state but crews able to get out and restore during all this.

Wind way down in my area. Had 4.5" of rain. Super humid thanks to being in the fetch.
