I feel okay skipping the ride yesterday after seeing the rain and tornado watches / warnings all day long. Some damaged homes and other buildings I hear. Local schools are on 2 hour delay which meant much less traffic.

At 4:30am the strong winds woke me and my wife up. It was blowing at 15-20mph with gusts over 30. And thus I had a fun ride to work. Some gentle inclines required a much lower gear and standing up to pedal. I stopped twice to push blown-over trash bins which were laying in the road. And through one neighborhood I dodged quite a bit of small tree branch debris.

Anyway - Happy Friday!
