Thank you both for your concern, it is greatly appreciated. I feel fairly certain this is a rain/wind event for us. And definitely a wake-up to preparing for the rest of the season which technically ends November 30th. I don't believe I have been in a hurricane in November where I live....they are usually further south.

We are blessed in a really unfortunate way for the NC coast in that when these hurricanes are a "direct hit" for them....it slows them to tropical storm strength (diminished winds) for us. In 2012, this exact scenario happened. When "Tropical Storm Sandy" hit our city, it did take our roof, lots of water damage to the house. But north of the DelMarVa area the water damage was in the billions. So many cities, businesses, homes, and lives were displaced. And yes, some of our beloved four legged family members displaced also.😿 Most were reunited with their families later.😻

So we start preparing early for these weather events....and pray. I'm watching the west coast at the moment, and praying for our friends there and on the Islands and further south on the Mexican coast. Big weather events stirring there also. I really don't like water/wind "events". GEL☔️⛈
