Mid-Morning Update

More strong gusts around here, along with more branches and leaves down; otherwise, not a whole lot else to report, besides a number of fallen trees, but none around here, thank heavens.

I'm a little surprised I've still got power, but, come to think of it, I'm just a block or so from a fire station. Maybe that'll make my 'hood a priority location.

Gustav, thus far, isn't the big one--we can all be grateful for that--but it's plenty big enough.
