I am in the middle of what it feels like a war zone. Yearly trip to midwest to visit in-laws and mother and the worst storm in 25 years hit. We are without power going on 3 days, nothing for 25 miles. Luckly my laptop charges off the car charger. Food has spoiled , 85 degrees, 97 % humidity, dew point 79. NO AC!!!!!!! Power lines across the road and trees ripped from the ground. I cant wait to get back to my dry heat and my fish!

ya 97% humidity is bad lol. It really does make 110 fell good..if its dry lol. When i was in nicaragua we had like, 98% for 5 straight days, and it was 95 degrees out...not cool.

so does everyone stay in the car and use the ac on that? lol

Storms, keeping us in the house for now. Still over 500k without power. I saw rows of powerlines snapped like twigs and corn 6 feet tall blown down flat. There are some high tension lines 150 footers that have been damaged that also part of the problem. A 30 foot pine tree next to us was snapped in half. If I can I will Take some pics.
