New England Sep 2011

We're off to see a leaf or two...

[08:35 3rd Sept]

But before we start our travels, we've been keeping an eye on the weather out there. After hurricane Irene swept through New York and up into New England, causing flight delays and flooding in some areas (Vermont especially), we've been looking at what else is in store over the next week.

There are currently two storms being tracked near the US, Lee is still storm force and sitting in the Northern Gulf - that shouldn't be an issue for us. Katia is already a category 1 hurricane and is hovering near Bermuda at the moment. It's likely to pass along the Eastern sea-board at some time, although current predictions show we will already have flown before it gets anywhere near us.

The bags are all packed!
