Clouds Continue to Build

Cloud density is increasing, and though it would be difficult to tell from the pictures, the wind is picking up. I have no way of measuring the windspeed, but it is about 10-20 mph (16-32 kmph). The winds will come from the North for us, as we are on the 'clean side' of the hurricane. We are now getting our timing in place for the last things that can only be done prior to the strike, and we must also take time-out for cake and celebrate my youngest daughter's 18th birthday.


All photos are being taken with my Nokia 3650, and the color variation is not real. I am not going to worry about editing them, however. The picture to the left shows a little more detail in the band development.
