But the folks in my neck of the woods are not in the clear yet. A whole lot of slop is expected in the South Carolina Lowcountry tomorrow. To my understanding, the ports may remain open.

But no overconfidence just yet.

There's more.

So the topic of conversation in my part of the world has switched, though from one storm to another.

Stay tuned.
