out in the storm, kilted

What in the world were you doing out in that weather in the 1st place

What in the world were you doing out in that weather in the 1st place

I thought the worst was over by then - no - it was just getting its second wind.

I tend to look down on the sort of weather we get around here - I was born and raised further north where there are mountains and we had some real winters, where the weather deserves more respect - but the centre of low pressure came much further south than usual and there was - I forget the term - explosive cyclo something - the barometer was way down when I got back home. I should have checked before, an old sailor like me should not have been caught out like that, I'm getting careless in my old age.
