I see the forecast for wind isn't quite as bad as originally predicted. Interesting website LEOFS . Thanks Larry ! Maybe by my second cup of black magic I will try it again.

Not a breath of wind here in Seaforth.
I suspect that will change.
Radar looks like we will not see much rain here either.

Wind and rain when I headed out from the house for work, now in north east Brampton nothing.

Hope any issues are minimal.

In Seaforth the wind has started to pick up.
Not crazy yet but noticeably increasing.

The bay is filling up now.

I had seen ships off of Clear Creek going in both directions. Rough water but them boys have a job to do. Not my cup of tea .

As far as Long Point goes ; It's basicicaly underwater ! Last I seen they had the road closed off but yet people thought they should go down and check on friends properties, REALLY ? WTF were they thinking . DuH ! Road Closed sign means it's ok to travel the Causeway ? I talked to friends stranded on Old Cut Blvd. while at Road Closure signs and they said "Stay the fudge at home !" It's bad but not life threatening.
