I understand there was only a minuscule decline in estimated trucks pulling loads on Oct. 1. It was speculated that increased shipping rates and a small decline in diesel prices may have contributed to this.
Haven't received an unsolicited hiring offer in several years, which is reasonable considering my age, that I retired years ago, etc. Got one yesterday from a former employer. They must be desperate.
I really can only look at video of flooding, like that in NE Florida yesterday, for a minute or two. Hope everyone gets through these storms relatively unscathed. I keep getting these stupid photo sequences on my phone deemed relive happy memories or something like that, and it shows pictures from past storm damage. No thanks. This is second time, I've tried to disable it.

It's only tangentially related to Isaias. I heard one WX report say the general flow is pushing a warm front flowing to the NE FL Jacksonville region. Causing widespread flooding. I grew tired of watching the videos.
It's been raining here too, but not that bad. It was heavier yesterday. My daughter called and said one of the creeks around here was flooding, but the homes are raised up several feet above the flooding creek. She was calling to make sure we weren't flooding over here. These homes aren't raised as much. The real concern to me is the high tides when the hurricane passes, the WX report says tides here will be 3' above normal. That tends to block drainage out, and increase the risk of flooding even miles inland. Over there on the East Coast they are just getting way too much rain. I heard the St. Johns was flooding, and saw deep water in the streets in JAX.

There were plenty of rigs on the road during our 5 hour drive to Central Texas, but your old employer does sound desperate.
What's happening in Northeast Florida to cause flooding?
I'm typing on my phone so I hope there isn't too many typos.
@QMS
lots and lots of cat jumping memes, but that one jumping from the ledge cracks me up every time I see it. I laugh my ass off.
I think it might be its technique, the outstretched legs, paws and toes, and especially the fluffed up tail being used as a rudder. I give it a 9.9 out of 10 on my judges card.
...a fair amount. That was my Mandarin lesson for today. I wondered is there a double entrendre in there? Gong jak 工作 can have a very negative political meaning in Korean. Obviously not translated completely nor correctly.

and picked-up speed (9 mph). Winds have increased to 80 mph,
with forecasts above 100 mph. The path is still forecast to make
landfall somewhere around Mobile and east to the Florida pan-handle.
Predicting storm surges of 5 to 7 feet with rainfall in the 7" range.
Could be quite damaging tomorrow. Head for the hills!
@QMS
is vacationing on the Gulf just south of Mobile, near Gulfshores, which may in the middle of the storm tract. If I remember right, I read one of his comments that they were headed back home today.
They live quite a distance from the Gulf, but the storm will most likely tract over the holler, which should make for some high winds and mucho rain.
We vacation in that area and I wouldn't want to be there during a hurricane.

messages for baby sis shortly regarding Hurricane Isaias. Storm Blog is going apesh1t---god forbid if this one was a cat6! That's one thing about storm season: it ain't over 'til it's over! You and the legal eagle drink a few cold ones for me in them Hills. And enjoy some azz kicking bluegrass. Love the memes, especially R. Crumb!! He was the Man with the comix. You both stay safe, ya hear?! Rec'd!!
@orlbucfan
Here's hoping baby sis stays high and dry. I haven't been keeping up, what cat. is it expected to be?
We're sitting outside at beautiful Albert Dance Hall Icehouse listening to Dallas Moore who has played with numerous country stars, most noticeably David Allen Coe. The music is excellent and free, the drinks not so much.
So, no bluegrass this weekend, old-style country tonight, and folk-coutry-blues tomorrow night.
Yee-hah!

Right now, they’re saying cat2. Talked to sis and the only thing she’s worried about is rain. Ground is saturated. Sounds like you 2 are having a ball. No bluegrass, huh? I have always loved that particular genre live. You 2 enjoy, and try not to get in too much trouble.

JUST IN: The Pentagon is reportedly directing U.S. Central Command to finalize preparations for potential major combat operations and strikes against Iran, with planning reportedly underway ahead of the midterm elections.
@TreyYingst reports on the military preparations as questions grow over whether the U.S. could take further action against Tehran.
