Hurricane update!
Added 2024-10-10 23:50:22 +0000 UTCThe short version: I'm safe! No power though.
Longer version:
Yesterday hurricane Milton came through, there was a lot of wind, a lot of rain, a lot of flashes from power lines around here and yeah... it's kinda bad! A lot of trees fell over, a lot of tree debris, some houses here had trees fall on the roof but extremely lucky for me we didn't have a tree fall on our house. Lots of big branches, tiny branches, some soffit got screwed up, almost had some flooding but nothing horrible happened thankfully.
I made backups of stuff and tried to secure my hardware just in case but fortunately the house didn't get like, get a hole in the roof or something.
Since the power is out I can't really do much... I've been working on something on my laptop (started modeling something) but the battery is already half done so... can't do much on it. Unless I got somewhere with power when businesses are open and got power... π€
I'm not sure when power will be back but as soon as it's back I'll be up and running again!
(Also sorry for not saying something sooner, I wanted to use as much of the sunlight hours of the day as I could cleaning up debri and stuff. So yeah if anyone might of been worried about me don't be!)
Comments
I will do my best to be safe! Thank you for the concern!

2024-10-12 08:07:23 +0000 UTCOh for sure. I live up in Northern Florida so I dodged a bullet but local counties had feet of flooding in some areas... and then there's the tornados

Velocirection
2024-10-12 07:55:10 +0000 UTCMe too! Hope you're safe. I heard there was flood close by but nothing like you'd see near the coast.

2024-10-12 07:50:55 +0000 UTCThat's a good idea! I never thought about using a dish washer to keep water *out* but it makes sense.
