Nasty storms headed our way.

Southern Tier of NY. Along the long, flat border with northern PA.

3. Thank you!

[LuckyCharms]

2. It will be alright. I'll do what I always do during thunderstorms.

I'll get my long aluminum, roof rake, get on my roof naked (except for my flip flops of course), hoist the metal roof rake into the air, and yell HAIL THOR! THE MIGHTY GOD OF THUNDER!!!

[Permanut]

6. Hey, what could go wrong?

[LuckyCharms]

11. Plenty!

[Niagara]

8. We'll get you one of those kiddie animal pool floats

You know just in case you don't float away.

[LuckyCharms]

10. Can I have a hippopotamus?

[Niagara]

14. Yes, you can totally have a hippopotamus

[LuckyCharms]

17. Can I name him "Frank"?

[Niagara]

22. You can absolutely name your hippopotamus Frank

[Marthe48]

13. Welp, now we know

[LuckyCharms]

15. Whether you wanted to know or not!

[Scrivener7]

34. The flip flops will ground you.

[some_of_us_are_sane]

36. They'll catch you one of these days, Lucky

ALMOST did............... but you were too fast. (Hence, the nickname 'lucky'.)

[Eko]

40. Crocs work better than flip flops in that situation.

[Niagara]

4. Can you look for Buffalo and see what it looks

like for here?

[LuckyCharms]

5. Cat 5 snow hurricane earthquake tsunami... just kidding, you look good there.

All good, no worries.

[Niagara]

7. All listed could be true for Buffalo

Thank you, Lucky

I get out of work at 8 so I was wondering because it was sprinkling right after I got here.

These people are nice. The house is in the millions at least.

[LuckyCharms]

9. I'm glad, Niagara!

I don't think I've ever been in a home worth even ONE million!

Be safe going home.

I'll post here if I see your weather change for the worse.

[Niagara]

12. Thank you, Lucky

This is my first time being inside a house in the millions. Hoo boy!

There won't be much traffic going home at 8 but I promise that I won't jump any railroad tracks or anything.


Thank you for that!

[Marthe48]

16. Wait for the next real estate bubble

Last year, I got an offer for home ins, with a ballpark estimate for the value of my house. I laughed and laughed.

[LuckyCharms]

18. Was it higher, or lower than you thought it would be, Marthe?

[Marthe48]

21. Ridiculously higher

I couldn't afford to buy it if I were looking.

[Marthe48]

19. Stay safe

We've had a thunderstorm watch all afternoon, but got just a little rain.

[LuckyCharms]

20. We just went from a watch to a warning.

You be safe too, Marthe.

[LuckyCharms]

23. Lights flickering. Might lose power.

[Niagara]

24. Be safe, Lucky

[LuckyCharms]

25. I will. Thank you, Niagara.

Lights are still on, but my internet is so slow, it's almost non-functional.

[Niagara]

27. Keep us posted when you can

I know how annoying spotty internet is.

[JMCKUSICK]

26. Good luck LC, we're supposed to get hammered around 9pm in Central IL

[LuckyCharms]

28. You be safe, John.

[JMCKUSICK]

32. We always go to his moms house if the sirens go off.

From tucked in bed to her basement is 7-8 minutes. Beats sitting in a mobile home.

[Niagara]

29. Hammered?

Put down the alcohol.

I'm only teasing, John. Be safe.

[JMCKUSICK]

31. Oh you got me good Niagara,

Was all set to sound dumb trying to explain

[Niagara]

33. I'm generally not that quick

But hammered was a term we used for getting intoxicated back in the day.

[JMCKUSICK]

35. Been there, done that a few times myself lol. Soju was the best/worst lol

[Niagara]

38. Lol

Ours was Boones Farm or if we had money midori melon liqueur for mixed drinks.

[rsdsharp]

30. We got 'em last night. Five inches of rain in some parts of the state.

[True Dough]

37. You can literally ride out that storm

in YOUR BRAND NEW HYUNDAI KONA SEL PREMIUM!!! COME ON DOWN!!!




Seriously, be safe!

[debm55]
