Hurricane Bill- Never a dull Moment in Nova Scotia

Well we are back in Dartmouth hunkering down till the storm passes by us. It is supposed to be over Halifax by noon today.

140 mls of rain and 120kms winds or more. Fortunately it will not make a direct strike on Halifax/Dartmouth like it did before. It will strike Canso or the Cape Breton shore instead. It will be very bad in those two areas and will be a long time in rebuilding.

We do expect power outages and localized flooding here. the trees are still full of leaves and they will most certainly break in the storm and down power lines, smash homes and cars. We left the RV up in Enfield to fend for itself and will see tomorrow what has transpired after the storm has come and gone. You can hardly see out the windows for the heavy rain which has a taste of salt to it. The wind has a really ugly sound to it and is very eery.

It must be five o'clock somewhere, so I am going to have a drink.
