Pretty well loaded here in the Texas Hill Country. A number of branches have dropped from the oaks and power just went south. "Flashlights" were ready. Five gallon buckets of pool water were ready at the bathrooms. Plenty of oak so the fire will keep burning as needed. Hot spot works on the iPhone and it and the laptop are charged 100%. A handle of Weller resides about 12 feet away. Nice and quiet...

That is one drawback to living at that latitude.
Keep the freezers closed, and don't drive, I think you folks will do fine!
