Perfect Storm

Herr Straße Laufer · 10-28-2012, 06:59 PM,

Hello fellow CS'ers. :band of brothers:

The East coast and Northeast region is supposed to be slammed by "the storm of the century". Windy

Philadelphia's mayor followed the governor and will be declaring a "state of emergency", including evacuations of parts of the city.
My internet supplier sent a blast e-mail informing of regional power outages and service outages.

I am sure that there are other effected members who live along the East coast and especially in the Northeast that I cannot speak for. :singing rain:
But, I wanted to let my opponents know that I may experience a slower turn rate over the next few days.

I'm even going to work today, Sunday, to keep ahead of the storm in case the Mayor shuts down the city completely. :rain:

To those in the path; "batten down the hatches"! Tornado

All the best for you and anyone one else in it's path. Hopefully it does a last minuet swerve out to sea and side steps you.

Gonna be a long day or two, Closet Hide

It's funny -been watching this for a few days now as I live in the affected area. I wake up and Western Canada is hit with a 7.7 and Hawaii gets a 3 foot Tsunami. Figure. Irene left us without power for six days and the October snowstorm left the western part of the state without power up to two weeks. Bought extra gas and ran my generator yesterday. Should be good to go- we hope LOL

Stay safe!

All you folks in the affected area, Please Stay Safe!!!

Here in good ole Ohio I'll be on the fringe but still prepared.

Yep, in Pennsylvania, Reading area, worried about this one. No generator, can't get one anywhere, and mine died on me...

Generals,
Include me in the possible hit sector. We had a classic weather breeder yesterday( calm before the storm) and my son caught a huge number of hardshell lobsters which usually indicates a major event(hardshells are usually non existent this time of year unless they are afraid).

Here is the latest from an hour ago:

On the map, Mike is near Reading and I am near Souderton (lower right side of the map they keep changing the map). I guess we are about thirty miles from each other.

Looks to be a really big one that will leave a trail of damage due to the high winds.
I'm going out for at least a half a day today but tomorrow and Wednesday will be dicey at best.

Good luck Mike!
