Beryl Survivors-please check in [View all]

One of my dogs woke me up at 2:30 and then again at 5. Bearded collies do not like thunder. I gave the dog some melatonin. Power had been going on and off for a while and then died at near 5 AM. The generator works and I had tv and internet. I watched the news and then went back to bed at 6 AM and was able to sleep until 9:15. The rain had stopped at my house. There are some weak gusts but no rain. My dogs went outside, and one got onto the grass.

I went outside and a lady and her child were walking near my house. She thought that we are in the eye. I am glad that she is wrong. It seems that I am past most of the issues except for some gusts and no power except the generator.

My oldest child is without power, but he has a generator. My oldest child is getting very heavy rain and wind. His weather system shows 6.75 inches of rain

No one at my firm can get onto the firm system. We are supposed to be able to get onto the system even when the building is without power.

I have some leaves in the yard but otherwise survived.
