Tropical Storm Fay

Tropical Storm Fay are still here and she's definately very persistant. She had been here since Monday evening and apparently she brought tons and heaps of rain with her. There have been a lot of report of damage and flood which seems inevitable when it have been raining for the past 3 days straight !

We have experienced the power going off and back on within 2 secs. It didn't cause too much damage for us except made me jumpy. Paul had stayed home from work since Tuesday and he's suffering from cabin fever. He's restless and been wanting to venture out to explore despite warnings to stay indoor when necessary.

He managed to convince me to check out our neighbourhood and we managed to take some photos of the damage caused by Fay. One of our neighbour's house have a tree fallen at the back of their porch. The tree at the side of my garage is lying at 45 degs and the pond at the back of the subdivision is threatening to over floor. Unfortunately, Sommer had also lost power at her house.

I can't wait for Fay's departure, this is frustrating.

Sisters, Shopping is the last thing on my mind.

My main focus is, 1) Will my house be flooded ? and followed by 2) Will we lose power !

I hope the photos let u girls know how lucky we are in Singapore. Seriously, raining for 5 days straight is not funny.

I feel sorry for folks whose house were destroyed or they losing power and have no where else to go.

Do you know how bad it is when you lose power and the weather is 35 deg and u can't open the windows cause the rain will be pounding into your house ? U can't leave either cause there's no where else to go when the streets are flooded ? OR maybe make your way to the shelters and then wonder when can u go home or if it is even a home now when it's destroyed ?

So seriously shopping is the lst thing on my mind.
