Nope. It's going east again. The day off is back on. And this thread will go down in history and be quoted as the right thing to do when a storm is coming.

Not happy that is headed back eastwards, thanking your post because some people seem to think its badass not to care about possible extreme and dangerous weather. Its not. Its as laughable as over hysteria.
