I have a strong urge to yell "MF snakes on the MF plane!!" Even with the boss gone, I realize that would not be a great move at work. Still.
Mal: Well said. Wasn't that well said, Zoe? Zoe: Had a kind poetry to it, sir.

Heads up to the east coast - we're getting the kind of storms (semis blown over on the interstate, that sort of thing) that were the precursors to your line of derechos earlier in the summer.

Of course he did.
I think this is a public photo on Facebook -- a local cat rescue group is doing a "15 Shades of Gray" event where, if you adopt a gray kitty, you get a t-shirt that says "I'm into S&N" (spay and neuter). [link]
One of the groups I work with has cat adoption t-shirts with a cartoon of a cat behind bars and the caption Free Pussy

I just heard about the semis on the news (channel 5), but Northside is sunny now -- BRIGHT sun. Weird. I see another storm on the radar back in Indiana, and I really need to get a shower, but I can't tell when that storm in Indiana is going to get here.

I too am watching channel 5. Which makes me feel like an enormous dork, actually.

That sounds terrible, but....since when are derechos a thing??? I think the staff at NOAA or whatever maybe doesn't have enough to do, which is why they keep naming weather patterns.

"The word was first used in the American Meteorological Journal in 1888 by Gustavus Detlef Hinrichs in a paper describing the phenomenon and based on a significant derecho event that crossed Iowa on 31 July 1877."
Nyah nyah.

Dayton, OH has been hit by 3 derechos in the last month; if today is one, that's four. (Usually west-central Ohio gets one a year.)

Because books.
I had never heard of it before yesterday either. Is it that they cause more wind damage or something? Because we had branches down before it even started raining last night.
