Could get interesting around here Sunday and Monday. Right now, that thing has a bead on us - right about where it goes from Topical Storm Henri to Tropical Depression Henri. It won't be a hurricane when it's this far north but I am giving thought to the likelihood that NH builders probably didn't give much thought to actual hurricanes when they nailed down their roofs.

The new house does have hurricane straps - I've always been a little wary of that 50 mile view. Unfortunately, that's the side Henri will be coming from.

If I remember right, the roof is supposed to handle winds of up to 180 mph. I'll believe that when I see it.

For me, this will be an experience. I was probably in a typhoon when I lived in the Philippines, but I was 2 or 3 at the time. And I was in a nasty derecho in 2011, but it only lasted half an hour.
