You would think that an official thread would demonstrate proper use of a question mark. thegerg

Are you prepared?

Somebody seriously just called 911 because they couldn't get their generator to work. People are insane.

They predict atleast 25cm of Rain and possible 60cm of snow. It should be hitting tonight (In the UK) so thats probably around this afternoon for you guys. Good luck.

Oh and this will be lingering around for about 24-36 Hours.. yall probably won't sleep.

He just didn't have the fuel line set to open. Took me all of five minutes to figure out what was wrong. Then I had to remind him that if he's running it in the garage he needs to keep a window open, and the door to the house closed. He didn't know that.

I have no doubt we're going to get a few deaths because people didn't read the instructions.

Hoepfull Sand becomes a fast moving storm once it hits land. Currently not in the path but worried about storm surges.

I live about 30 miles NW of NYC. So far I haven't experienced much of anything except for the occasional gust of wind and some light rain. My best wishes go out to everyone else in the path of the storm.

I live near Toronto and apparently, it's supposed to get pretty bad here tomorrow. I'm not expecting roofs being torn off or anything on that level, but I hope it gets so bad that I don't have school for the next couple days or so.

You guys are probably going to get big waves from the outer bands of this massive storm and some rain and wind.

I've heard from family that some of the beaches in NJ are already decimated, and the storm hasn't fully hit yet.

Natural Disasters are always harder to deal with when there are werewolves running around. (Yes, I know about tides. That was a joke.)

Judt figured out that it still is a category 1.But it's pressure reading is still insane for a category 1 hurricane.

Southern Ontario. Winds are really beginning to pick up here in Toronto. Rain is starting to come down pretty hard too. The worst of the storm is coming tonight and conitnuing in to tomorrow and possibly Wednesday.

Looks like someone won't be going to school tomorrow... :cool:

At least you're okay. You're set with supplies I'm guessing, right?

I got family in NY too, should probably be checking up on them.

I don;t think the gulf has seen a category 1 hurricane with a pressure reading of 940mb.

Jersey is going to be schwacked at around 6PM. So I expect not having power around then. This thing is going to own our faces.

On the Eastern Shore of MD, pretty bad so far but I live in an area of little trees thankfully.

I am so lucky though that when I moved, the house that we were originally going to go with is probably flooding now since it was right next to the bay

Hopefully everyone on the East coast manages to get away from this with as little damage (and god forbid, death) as possible. It's crazy to think that some people have to death with these things almost every year.
