Default Wild weather tonight

High winds (nearly 50 MPH) heavy rain, lightning and suspected hail. I have it all "battened down" with tarps (if you saw my garden post, the stuff on the steps is all either moved or covered.) I learned my lesson from last year. None of the 'chids are outside

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

Good luck, Ross...please let us know you and yours are fine when it's gone through. Gin contacted me before to let me know she may not make it to OB tonight because of the weather.

We'll be thinking of all our friends in that part of the country

Ross - don't forget to tie yourself down and put on a helmet - hail can hurt
