Woke up at 3:49 AM , certain that I had set my alarm for 3:45 AM. When I checked, I discovered it had been set to 3:45 PM. Oops. Close call when I plan to catch the hotel shuttle to the airport at 4:30 AM.

Meanwhile, outside my hotel window, it looks like a hurricane. High winds, rain, and there might be occasional hail beating against my window. Alaska Air says an on-time departure at 7:03 AM. We'll see. Weather forecast does not look good.
