Henri

Felt like the downpour last night was more intense than the gentle rain we're getting today. No wind which is not what I expected with Henri still a tropical storm. Looks like the eye of the storm is going over the tip of Long Island.

Spider webs seemed to be more prevalent on the path. I wondered if the spiders thought they would get less foot traffic during the tropical storm, then realized I was anthropomorphizing. Probably they just don't like their webs being taken down so they move to another place, and their moving all over the place, they accidentally come back to the path.

Must be a dry summer, because it's not too soggy in the swamp.

I think about the water level rising 1-4 feet due to global warming was the estimate I got. I just checked my elevation, I'm 95 feet above sea level.

This tropical storm is more gusty towards the outside, than the inside. It was more windy when it began and when it's ending. I wonder how many inches or centimeters of rain we got.
