Quoted: We have one barge tonight, they took it away to another dock, and we have one in Canada the are holding up there.

The company which employs me barges in all the materials we need except for water. This evening we have one barge loaded with cementatious powder moored to our dock. They were preparing to move it away to another dock possibly, depending on how soon the inpending storm makes landfall. We have another barge loaded with coarse and fine aggregates departing Canada this evening headed to our local plant, but have delayed its departure also pending same storm pattern movement.
Reports I got are Straits of Juan Defuca 60+MPH winds.

The gentlemen who are charged with offloading aforementioned barges were conveying to me the naval weather report they had received this evening. The shipping channel named "The Straits of Juan DeFuca" is forecasted to receive 60 plus mile per hour sustained winds in the sme weather pattern all our barge traffic is observing.
There may be no funshow tommorrow for my ass.

If this storm system is as severe as it is forecasted to be, the weather may dictate alternative plans for tommorrow for me. There would be little use in going to a gathering 40 miles away if the venue has no electricity and the driving will be extrememly hazardous due to adverse weather conditions.
If you didnt get it this time, I can think of one more way to convey my message.
