We got the wind, but absolutely NO rain. I had a shutter fly of the house. I had noticed earlier in the week that it was pulling out of the brick & was on my to do list.....now it really is on my TO DO LIST with a higher priority....lol.

I got my flag down as everytime the wind dose that, it breakes the holder (I have lost 3 flag holders so far). The wicker swing on my front porch was slamming into the railing.....the dogs would go crazy barking every few minutes when it would go clunk. I finally tied it down to the railing so it would get damaged or damage anything. I had several potted plants that blew over.....One on my front porch blew the pot all the way over to the driveway about 50 ft away.

I was without of internet yesterday afternoon.....what a way to have to do housework (when I would rather be on the internet). All of our internet transmitters/receivers, are located on the water towers......winds & lightning are hard on the internet....almost sure of loosing the internet then. It actually blew off the internet equipment on one tower...(not mine but another one).

I didn't realize how much effect that would have on us all the way up here in the US ( even more north in Ohio).

Glad everyone is safe
