very windy. not so windy that the plants blew off the porch railing or anything, but still, the leaves on the philodendron were really bustling about. heard a loud motor type noise and TB and I decided to venture outside to see what was happening. turns out DPW must have just found out about the storm- they were cutting a tree limb off that was hovering above a power line. appeared to be preventative, as nothing had actually fallen, and we still have power. thank goodness they're on top of the situation.
