I appreciate reading about the triggers that change so significantly in weather.

Thanks for the education.

This house has been through 3 major hurricanes, 2 of which did some damage though Charley did a lot more than Ian which is a bit of a surprise considering how big Ian was and how slow moving while Charley blasted through. Irma did nothing but cost me a solar light. We get lots of thunderstorms with massive amounts of grounded lightning and winds averaging 40+ mph with wind gusts a lot higher. You get used to it here.

I have had some friends of mine in southern Michigan and Ontario, Canada talking about the hazardous air conditions from the Canadian wildfires. One of them had to go out yesterday and pick up some food and medicine for another friend and said it was really bad. She had to wear a mask and goggles as her eyes were getting sore and gritty. Most of the time the air is pretty good down here except near the Gulf or Atlantic coast when we have a red tide, then it can be hazardous. Oops, forgot about when the sargassum floats in and coats the beaches in rotting seaweed. Not good either.
