Foul wind commin. Haboob-warning for a pretty big swath of our county and into some others [View all]

Put the vehicle in garage. I leave it out to cool off after running errands before putting it in the garage so garage doesn't get too hot . Put the dog cots in a safe place in the back yard so they don't take flight. Hoping neighbor's trampoline is well anchored. Have seen crashed trampolines in pretty weird places after big wind around here.

It's a big, long front, stretching for miles and miles. Phoenix gets these sorta regularly but they are rare where I live. This is second one this summer. Doesn't bode well for our futures.

Fingers crossed it won't be as bad as all the weather alerts said it might.

Glad I haven't dusted and vacuumed already today.
