Rain easing off to a light sprinkle now. Looks like the event is about over for us.

According to the radar, this is the last patch of hard rain in this band. Hope it moves on soon as I need to bring some wood in to dry out.

Of course that’s with this iBook right beside the other one. But have had it set up that way before and not had this trouble. ???????

Tis just a REAL noisy mother board. With the cd and dvd disconnected, the case on, and machine turned so the side faces the wifi still out.

Haven’t tried disconnecting the cd and dvd yet. Coming up now…

Found the case for the problem machine. Put it on and no wifi. Put a screw in and for a second it came back and then dropped out again.

Actually found it the first place I looked! And the wiring and ground is correct at the power strip. Guess it’s mother board time.

All the grounding screws are in. Case is grounded but haven’t checked to see about the line coming back here. Now to find the GF tester.

Soon as enough of the system comes up to display on the monitor (even without a video card in) the wifi fails.

Have now removed every board in the problem computer, one at a time, and the wifi interference continues unabated.

Folks in Atlanta best batten down the hatches as it’s starting to move in on them now.

Love how this band of moisture raced across Mississippi and slowed down in Alabama. Looks like another couple of hours till it moves out.

Towels and assorted sheets soaking up additional leaks in the bathroom. Knew it would leak but have plans for the new roof in there asap.

Quite wet out there. Came in and found new leaks upstairs and cleared out a shelf of books and videos to keep them from damage.

Well just spent the last 20+ minutes outside in the rain clearing and redigging ditches to try to get most of the water to run off.
