Right now, the National Weather Service and The Weather Channel are discussing which one will get to move to a new domain name, ourbestguess(.com/.gov)
Did you feel like a Swampwalker?
LOL, more like a Swampswimmer. Trying to repair and re-route a downspout draining about 1000 s.f. of steeply pitched roof during a torrential downpour in the dark, dressed only in my speedo (that disturbing image is for you, Noble100) was a bit of a challenge but if it was easy, everyone could do it. And the speedo was ready for its annual washing after the summer ;~) Now all is well, power back and the speedo dried off, so I am GOOD TO GO!
...annual washing? Eew...

It was rather wet and rainy here in Albany. My rain gauge read 6.4", and the local NWS office recorded a peak wind gust of 59 MPH. Everything stayed in one piece, the power stayed on, and the sump pump ran. Now if the Mohawk and Hudson rivers will spare Schenectady and Troy (and no dams burst), the entire area will breathe a collective sigh of relief.

There must be a web site where those words are cherished but I don't think Audiogon is it :^).
