We have a storm (typhoon) headed our way. Right now we are at a COR3, soon to be upgraded to COR1 tomorrow afternoon. I have done all I can to prepare for this storm. Hopefully I have enough supplies to get us (Courtney and I...hubby is at sea) for us to manage thru this, should it become as powerful as they think it will be. Power will most likely go out, as it usually does on a daily/weekly basis.
I'm hoping this thing blows around us and we don't get what they say we are going to get.
So, if you don't hear/see me in the next couple of days, you know what's going on. I do have a landline phone, so that's a good thing. Not sure if phone lines will go out, but we also have the cell phones which are constantly on charge.

I'm still here. They are saying it's supposed to hit Wed at 5am, that's about 7am Tuesday for East Coasters. So, we just have to wait and see.
I have all my fans set up so I can blow it back out to sea. :)

Nope, have never experienced a typhoon before. Talking to the locals, they say it's the same as a hurricane, but the winds are worse because of this being an island.
No worries. I have pretty much all I need.
I'm running for more bottled water in the morning and a couple more bags of cat food just in case this does hit and we lose power for a while. Can't have kitties without food!
