Weather

Ever since we left NJ we have had some of the weirdest strings of weather I've ever known. We've had storms that have come out of the Gulf of Mexico and worked it's way up the east coast, bringing the wind and rain that we mentioned in Ida vs Isabel.

Our journey further south took us through the rains of Georgia the cold at St. Augustine, Florida and even lower temperatures that threatened the crops in Florida and froze the water pipes in the panhandle at Pine Lake Resort in Fountain, FL. After two days of freezing pipes the management drained the popes from 4:00pm to 8:00am for the next five days.

California had rain storms that tracked their way across the southern US bringing flooding to the Gulf Coast from Louisiana to Pensacola, Fl. We consistently saw messages flashed across our TV telling us about tornado watches and warnings and to have alternative plans.

In a motor home there are only two plans I know of. Pack up and move or hope there is a tornado shelter near or in the campsite. The basement in the a motor home is in the the motor home not under. But then when we had the house in NJ it was on a slab and there was no basement there either. So you just settle in during the storms and don't concern yourself with things you can't control.

That's the weather man's job.
