1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Pretty bad isn't the word for it!!

 Over four inches of rain in our area.  Some parts of the East Coat received from two inches to a foot of snow.  Winds are 25 - 30 MPH with 55 MPH gusts!!

 Yo, Mother Nature, isn't this April??

Southern Connecticut got a bunch of rain too  >:(

Rivers, that are usually a good 10 feet below a certain Bridge in my town, are almost washing ONTO the Bridge (Apparently a small Dam broke up river, which could be the problem)... Our basement flooded (6-7 inches of water. How fun.)... and to top it all off... With those insane gusts mentioned above (Well over 50MPH, with 20 being the regular), A branch fell onto my Mom's car and cracked the windshield  :o :'( :-X

On the next street over, they were using a zodiac-style inflatible to pull people out becaus the road was flooded so badly.
