There's no escape!

I'm feeling pretty lucky right now - with just the icy mix and driving rains. Hunkered down with my wood stove -

Every year they publish the same worst-of-century story and every time it’s just a bad storm.

looks pretty rugged to me! I wouldn't want this barreling down on me...

Quite beautiful - but I wouldn't want to be in it.
