'Perhaps with the odd gust of 80mph'

What? you say.

What? is what I said too.

I'm writing in the middle of the so-called storm of the winter. And it's pretty nuts out there. I woke at my usual 5.30am (ok, 6 - yes I did hit snooze as always), after having a restless night because the wind has been causing the house to shake, and debated whether it would be wise to go into work at my normal time today.

On the one hand - I would likely beat a lot of traffic, because everyone is hesitating.

On the other hand - chaos could ensue and the storm could blow up more while I am in transit and I might get stuck on a commuter train.

Decisions, decisions.

It's me versus the hurricane.

Will update later with more.
