Good News of the Day.
Tropical Depression #2 has weakened
The good people of Hawaii dodged the Hurricane Felicia bullet and received some much needed rain. Love to my Molokai friends.
HAT UP!
Everyone who lives along the Eastern coastline of the U.S. needs to wear a cute ball hat today. It's raining hard and there is no way your hair will be able to hold up against the moisture. You will be much better off to just go ahead and "hat up" before leaving home.
Should you have to evacuate from a flood zone please remember to drive around any flooded area. If you are unable to see the bottom of the road it could be washed away. Even if the road is not washed away you will not be able to determine how high the water is. Six inches of water is all it takes to reach the bottom of most cars.
When the vehicle gets in this much water you can lose control of the car and it will probably stall.Only a few inches of water can make a car's tires lose traction with the ground. Then you are at the mercy of the water. A foot of water will float most cars.
Everyone needs to remember what emergency workers are always telling us,
"TURN AROUND AND DON'T DROWN."
