Flogged!
Well between the 70 mph gusts and the multiple inches of rain we are doing pretty well, considering!
We are getting absolutely hammered by a storm today. My drive up the mountain was incredibly treacherous: dodging cars, down power lines, trees, trees on cars- you name it. If I had know it would be this bad i would have parked my behind on my couch for a movie marathon!
I drove around with Michael this morning to check culverts, drains, and for signs of erosion in the vineyard; luckily we seemed to have done a good 'winterizing' job as everything looks to be in good order.
The National Weather Service has issued a "sombrero" of warnings: Flood, Flash Flood, High Wind and just plain Hazardous Weather. Lucky us.
There is a good Doppler of the storm here.
The storm is supposed to calm a bit by 4, so hopefully I'll make it home.
Wish us luck!

Yikes,
The wind will blow your hair off up here on Skyline.
