Ugh. I have it in my head you're right off the highway at Wakeeney for some reason.
I hit the east side of Hays yesterday early evening and it was 97 degrees. By the time I get to Whack-a-Weenie, it's 68 and just dumping rain. COLD rain. And I drove with that monsoon all the way back here. The winds kicked up so much it had people on the side of the road with their hazard lights on. Total pussies, lol. [Reply]

LOL nope. Gotta keep heading off into the abyss to get to me.
Glad you made it safe. Looked pretty nasty.
At least the traffic pulled over to stop. When I was in Sidney some asswipe just stopped in the lane. Fortunately I was behind him and saw it happen and didn't just roll up on him, but I wasn't thrilled. [Reply]

My favorite firearms dealer is in your town. The retired Veterinarian on the west side of town. It's not really the abyss and a fun drive from Denver if you take the back roads. [Reply]

That was a motherfucker of a storm. Lincoln and Omaha had constant 90+ mph winds. Trees down, people still don't have power. The funny thing is it didnt reach us in Fremont, I was out grilling.
We have a retired couple that camp next to us from Omaha. They came up being they didn't have power and the house only got down to 83 with that heat. He talked to his neighbor and they weren't expected to get power until Wednesday. Crazy. [Reply]

Yeah I don't know what's going with the weather this year but I'm sure our homeowners insurance will be on the rise again. As if inflation wasn't bad enough already. I know Sioux City had a rough time as well back in June. [Reply]
#Milton rapidly intensifies into a category 5 hurricane. Data from a @53rdWRS hurricane hunter aircraft indicate that the maximum sustained winds have increased to 160 mph (250 km/h) with higher gusts (10:55 am CDT Monday Update.) 🧵
