chainsaw weather

We're having a dramatic storm with very high wind right now. Fun! Especially because our electrical cables are underground so there's comparatively little risk of them going out. Just a lot of cozy whooshing and hissing noises and things blowing around outside the windows. I love that. Not as much as the sound of a thunderstorm with a tin roof, but still very exciting. In the past we noticed an official traffic advisory that said to definitely take a chainsaw if you go out in your car, and that's probably what it's going to say when this one is over (right now it says go inside, although it's not an order like on the level of a tornado warning... people are still at work). We haven't seen any fallen branches ourselves yet, though our yard is encircled by large trees.
