I’m not scared of this one. No, it’s the next one, and the next one, and…

It’s a training run to get back in the habit of checking. A week early isn’t bad, we were close with that mess that dumped on Central Florida last week. Another day in the Gulf and it would have been a depression or even a tropical storm.

I may just put up the standard stuff this weekend, instead of waiting for the official start.
