Right now, it's early morning here and all is quiet. Expecting Helene storm to arrive about noon. Been promised 35-55mph winds along with much rain.
Also, good chance of losing power due to the wind and falling trees. Will hunker down in a windowless area and hope for the best.
Brief bit about Hillsboro, Ohio.
Hillsboro, the county seat of Highland County, Ohio with a 2024 population of about 6,660, was platted in 1807.
Hillsboro is growing annually as its population has increased since the most recent census, which recorded a population of 6,489 in 2020.
The Colony Cinema in the center of town opened in September, 1938.
Hillsboro, Ohio.
It was operated by Chakeres Theaters Inc. and operated as a movie theatre until 1993.
Chakeres Theatres deeded the property to the city, the city turned it over to a non-profit organization and it became a concert and live entertainment venue.
In it's final years it was the Hillsboro Opry - a country music venue. Finally, it was closed, demolished and replaced with a parking lot named Colony Park.
