The Front Porch

Due to the severe flooding in GA, Atlanta Public Schools have been closed along with 128 other schools, colleges and businesses, the Governor of Georgia, Sonny Perdue issued a State of Emergency for 17 counties, hearing the stories of how many people have been affected in the worst way from water rescues to death have been very heartbreaking for me.

Yikes Tavores! I really hope the people at the ATL make it out safely from this horrible disaster. Nice to know you are doing okay as well.

Thank you Ana, if it wasn't for my street being on a slope elevation woe would be seeing flooding like other neighborhoods around us, I unfortunated had to dash home in kneehigh water which wasn't fun, I never seen flooded waters that high.

EDIT: I even heard Mike Bettes has flooding in his home as well.

Speaking of computers, Yesterday I went down south to pick up my old iMac (Yes, that one iMac you see here) with no keyboard or mouse. The OS is 9.2. So I will be needing a HUGE upgrade. The monitor/CPU seems to be working like new still. I plan to buy a new mouse and keyboard hopefully this weekend. And if all is possible, buy a new OS upgrade. But I won't do that until I find someone who can give me advice about using a mac.

Well if you need any help with that Mac I'd be glad to assist you... I like those old iMacs, those are my favorites!

Please leave the Porch open. It's forecasted to be in the 90s through October.

iirc, it's done by season  Doesn't look like he'll keep it open past tomorrow 

It is done by season, so today is the last day for the Front Porch in 2009.  The weather, however, doesn't always obey the seasonal calendar.

Yeah especially mine...100s all week, and maybe next week.

Well, my porch will still be open if anyone wants to come to mine

Well, ladies and germs, today is the last day of the Front Porch. Fall begins tomorrow!

Goodbye to the Front Porch! It's nice to post in here one last time before it disappears. This sure has been a great spring and summer, but I'm really looking forward to fall.

* WeatherWitness follows Martin's footsteps by sweeping the porch and covering the chairs.

* WeatherWitness then takes a deep breath, enjoying the last of the summer air, and walks inside.

Now hopefully we will actually get a little taste of fall tomorrow with a slight cold front keeping temps in the mid-70s. Rain is expected, though...don't think I like that.

And speaking of rain, please stay safe Tavores and any other member here who lives around the Atlanta, GA area. I didn't realize that the flooding was this bad.

  I'm going to miss the Porch!
I've been taking the time to look over all the posts (and the drama believe it or not). It has been an awesome Spring & Summer. Hope Fall and Winter is even better

Tavores, good luck in dealing with the flooding around you.  It sounds really bad from what I've heard.

I guess I need to move my swing, my wind chimes, and my hurricane evacuation signs back inside now that the Front Porch is about to close.

[WeatherWitness]

Are we closing right at midnight or whenever Martin decides to?

Now I have to dust mine off!
I'm a little shocked to see snow on the first day of Spring... this hasn't happened before.
