The big factor around Melbourne and the beaches has been lots and lots of rain. The winds have never been alarming (except for the occasional tornado, of course) but there's a lot of minor flooding. I'm
staying home today simply because I know that the street I work on, plus my own neighborhood,
have water high enough in the streets that it's questionable if my car would make it. And what the
heck, it's not like I'd be doing anything at work today anyway but turn on the twins (two Orions in
base consoles) and listen to the SO and the PDs. And I'm doing that right now at home anyway,
with four M/A-Com 7100IPs on my computer desk. I'm monitoring VHF and any three agencies at
a time that I want to on the county's system.
