Go with the Flo

Fifteen years ago school was closed to allow people to hunker down in the face of Hurricane Isabel. We were lucky back then; the power never even flickered, but other folks in our small county were not as fortunate, and we had a couple days off to allow everyone to get back on their feet.

Heidi and I took advantage of our unexpected holiday to go get a puppy, and she was our first dog, Isabel.

Since then, storms have threatened but never actually closed down the schools. This weekend that may change, though, Hurricane Florence is on her way. Today all the models seem to agree that Florence will be a minor event in this area, but I guess a monster storm like that can never be completely predictable.

Could there be a canine Florence in our future? Let me double check the European model.
