Weekend and Halloween Forecasts/Effective Comcast Worker

HURRICANES AND WEATHER
Still have some disturbed weather in the western Caribbean.

Otherwise, it's fall baby!!! Today's high in Houston was only 70. We'll start Friday in the 40s. I'm shivering already. Seriously, we opened up the windows today and just enjoyed it so much!!! Weekend lows in the 40s and 50s and highs in the 70s and 80s. Wow!!!

It's raining along and head of the cold front that brought us our cool down. Much of the eastern U.S. will have rain over the next 2 days.

Houston Halloween looking mild and breezy after all...rain chances only about 20%.

AND MORE
FINALLY!!! FINALLY!!! Our digital cable is working correctly. Still waiting for Comcast to bury the cable though (and not in our neighbor's yard where it is lieing right now).

Anyway, a wonderful fixer person came to our house and I told him of our woes and how our signal drops out and some stations don't even show up. Well, he listened and figured out that there is not enough power going to the digital cable. He said someday Comcast will improve the infrastructure so it works right to begin with. In the meantime, he fixed us up and made sure that the phone and high speed Internet did not suffer. It turns out that this guy is from up north and came her as contract labor. He said he hears complaints nearly all day long. He was so nice...I was very happy to meet him!!!!

Have a fabulous Friday everyone!
