Hey guys, I’ve got all of my Kenosha weather logs up to date this morning. I’ve been dragging on that because I’ve been pretty busy lately.

And that brings me to my lack of posts. Sometimes real life takes over and my internet life gets put on hold. That’s pretty much what’s been happening over the last couple of months. I’ve had a lot of other things going on and not much energy left for computer stuff.

I’ve also been going through a little blogging burnout. I’ve been writing on here for 8 years now and it seems harder than ever to come up with things to write about. So I’m taking a little break from it. I will try to get at least one new post up a week, but right now I’m not promising even that.

For those of you who enjoy following me, you might want to become friends with me on Facebook. I post a little more on there because it’s so easy to do it from my iPhone. If you’d like to send me a friend request, you can do it here:

Also, I know there have been a lot of new web cam links submitted in the comments, I’ll try to get to them and put them on the list. Until I do, you’ll just have to use the links in the comments.

Thanks for your understanding on all of this. I’m not giving up on SierraVisions, but I just can’t update as often as I use to.

It was six days ago, on June 3oth, that a severe thunderstorm formed over Lake Michigan and moved south, 5-10 miles off shore of Kenosha. Though the storm didn’t come over land in our area,  hurricane force winds, up to 75 mph, swept across the lake and slammed into the lake shore areas. The winds uprooted hundreds of trees, snapped power poles, caused much property damage and left thousands without power for up to three days. It also turned Kenosha’s beautiful lake shore parks into tangled messes of downed trees and branches.

During the storm I was able to grab a little video from our living room window, I then went out on Friday morning and shot some video of the damage. The first video contains those scenes. Yesterday I was able to get to the hardest hit area, South Port Park, and I shot some video of the damage there. That’s the second video.

Kenosha is still a mess and there’s a lot of clean up left. Thankfully all power was restored on Sunday.
