Hurricane Zehr

I heard there was a hurricane warning in our area the last several days and my fears were confirmed when I saw the following article.
Cleanup continued this afternoon in the aftermath of Hurricane Zehr. This hurricane was first spotted on the disaster radar Thursday afternoon around three-o-clock. The first inclination a hurricane was in the area occurred when a mini-van was seen leaving the greater Marysville area. As the storm continued to rage, Seneca creek began to rise and soon debris was seen floating down on the raging waves. Things came to head this afternoon when cleanup began in earnest. Homeowners were seen using heavy equipment to remove mud and dirt from damaged homes. The most obvious was a home located across from Airy Mont Farm. Shovels were put into use as counters were cleaned and floors were swept. There are plans for a grand celebration this evening were families will gather to devour sloppy joes and other assorted items. "We think things are under control" Mr. Zehr said "We won't know for sure until my wife returns from GA and can view things for herself." It appears Mr. Zehr was given strict orders to clean the house before his wife returned. Hopefully he has successfully fulfilled his cleanup obligations.
