    Might be safer to be sitting for the moment than on the roads around there.

    Not quite , I bought 8 new hankook drive tires last fall and with me slowing down later this year I'm probably done buying high dollar michelins .
    Turns out we had 90 mph winds last night but all I got was a small branch on my roof and my neighbor took care of that and no other damage .
    I think that module had been failing for quite a while because my interior lights do things now they have never done like auto dim when the headlights are on ...also the hook up lights in back of the cab that haven't worked in 3 years and nobody could figure out why suddenly work now ....oh and the panel switches and steering wheel control switches now glow in the dark .
    For those that say the oil field is dead you coulda fooled me cause I'm parked at the relay station just south of Shreveport La and the sandcan haulers and Halliburton trucks are thick as flies here and working on a Saturday night .

    Those trucks have been parked in their like that since last year.. they seem to use it as a parking lot when they’re off.. they also fill up the flying J there in Greenwood just down the street…

    I was just about the Hebron coop when it really hit. I have rode out a lot of wind with an empty pot. I have never shook that bad, I really thought we were headed over a couple times. Anyway made it to the scale rolled in and parked with the trailer facing the wind and the truck cross the wind to act as a counter weight. Can’t say I ever done that or if it really works. Wasn’t long and reefer comes pullin in talkin bs bout how I parked. Yet wanted weather info if I had it. Which I conveniently did not lol. Lookin back guess I did look funny as hell sittin there like that

    I found if possible to close every gate inside helps...the wind can't gain momentum inside and make it act ignorant.

    My next door neighbor picked that limb off my roof today and the dam thing was from an elm in his yard a good distance from my house .
    Apparently super maples are tough trees cause the one in my front yard barely dropped a twig in 90 mph winds and its every bit of 70 feet tall .
    My house was built in 1935 so I would guess it's gotta be around 80 years old .
