Weather, Especially a Hurricane, Trumps Everything

A pleasant day on an Atlantic Coast waterfront
I always seem to have a calendar full of scheduled events. Then along comes a weather event, and things fall apart like a tent of cards. Especially when it's a mega storm like Hurricane Sandy.

Look a New York City right now. Much is closed down because of vulnerability from the waterfront. We all love water. We like to live on it. We like to take boats out on it, but it's not much fun when trouble comes and the sea rises bringing tons of flooding, trees uprooted, and much more.

Airlines cancel flights, trains stop running, roads are closed. We are so dependent on the weather.

Now my calendar is confused and upset. But the power is still on. I'm thankful for that!

Thanks, Alex. So far, we just have mostly a lot of rain.
