As I sit and look out the window this morning I see nothing but dark black rain clouds in the distance. No sunrise this morning nothing but dark skies it looks like. It's supposed to rain later today and by the traffic on the streets you can tell people are preparing for it. The stores are packed on this early Monday morning. Not normally like this to say the least. Major storms on the horizon seem to bring people out from all over the place. It's just a storm it's not like world is going to end.

For what it's worth I have enough food in the pantry to last a week or two so even if we lose power again I'll be alright. I may need to get out there later today though to fill up my gas tank. Anytime they cut the power the gas stations always have the longest lines, that is if they're even open. Stay safe out there.
