Very quick post as power's already gone out here twice this morning. Driving was unpleasant but people seem to be acting in a mostly sane manner, so yay on that. But San Mateo is seriously getting smacked around at the moment, traffic lights are out, streets are flooded and I'm betting a few power lines are going to bite the dust before the day's over.

If all the locals could just check in and let me know you're safe and sound I'd appreciate it.

UPDATE: After the fifth power outage took out all of my work *again* I threw my hands in the air and said, "That's it, we're leaving." Nobody argued with me, we all wished each other a safe drive and took off. Parts of 101 were dicey and the 85 interchange was a right mess, but otherwise it wasn't too bad.

I have a mug of hot tea, a nice candle and an SGA marathon so life is good...at least until the power goes out.

*waves a little flag* I'm here and OK, although working from home (not cuz of the weather but because I woke up shredded again this morning).

I haven't noticed losing power (yet), but some of the wind gusts have been making interesting noises at the construction site across the street, and it was raining on me on the toilet this morning o.O (the winds are forcing the water into my exhaust fan system).

(EDIT): Oh, and I heard C-- leave the house this morning shortly before 10am, so he was at least okay at that point. :}

Heh, that's a new one, and one of the many joys of living on the top floor, eh? I'm just worried I'm going to get leaks in through the windows at this point.

Heh. Well, it turns out that your fear is the reality here, too. On a second trip in there, I found it was raining through the ceiling near the window. I think the 'rain' I felt was from the splashes made by the droplets hitting the water already pooling on my inset window sill. :P

Gah.
