Looks like we’re in for nasty weather.

Isabel continues to head directly towards us. She’s already given the Outer Banks a good pounding, and even far inland we’re getting a lot of wind and rain from her edges.

Schools are closed for the day; last night the kids and I dragged everything from the back porch into the basement, and put the trash and recycling bins into the shed. Now all we can do is wait and see what she’s going to do. Wish us luck!
