    Stay safe

  2. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Phil Beech says:

    That is scary. I'm fortunate enough to live in a country where we don't get weather events such as you're experiencing right now. … that said, 3" of snow normally creates a sense of panic / wariness such that you're going through now. You and your family stay safe. Fingers crossed for minimal damage to your property.

  3. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Matrix Wake says:

    Good Luck my Friend.

    so, I know everyone handles these differently, but, at what point did you just shrug, say "it's insured and I'm going to sleep" and just get a couple hours of sleep? or did you rack out until the worst was passed?

  74. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Louis Emery says:

    I'm thinking now of all the times I see your un-rusted FL customer cars. While we in the north spend a lot of time unfreezing fasteners because of salt corrosion. We have snow and salt but no hurricanes. And we have thieving Democrats. Different areas of the country, different problems.

    Be safe out there Ray. I live in Deltona FL. At this point it's a little sporty out there. Other than the copious amounts of rain it's not too crazy yet. I expect in the next couple of hours that's going to change. Most likely be dealing with the loss of electrons to my dwelling. Be safe and Godspeed.

    Kinda surprised you didnt use some type of tire ramp or something to keep the truck above water lol

  95. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars micro Graham says:

    Tree gravity is worst gravity, be safe out there, everyone.

  96. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars neva mind says:

    stay safe

  97. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Privileged White Male says:

    That cup staying on your truck in those winds is like a wrench left on your bumper making it 20 miles down the road. Truck mischief. Have fun man, mega jealous over here.

  98. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Eldon Howard says:
