[Smack Tripper]

we have flurries in the NC Mountains. We are near the TN border and could get 5-8 inches by Wednesday.

And you have leaves up still, right?

I really appreciate the power company regulating my furnace so I can't warm up the house before I lose power.

"asphalt dump truck 24a" some schlup was stuck with the dumptruck

I heard them asking for a dump truck and a front loader so it might their own.

Hurricane tip #74: If you lose power while shaving your balls, place flashlight in candle holder and place on floor between two plastic lawn chairs. Stand on lawn chairs (one foot on each), continue until manscapping is complete.

Is that Route 30?Jesus

 

[The_Man]

HURRICANE FORCE WIND GUSTS OF 70 AND POSSIBLY 80 MPH ARE EXPECTED TO IMPACT A REGION LOCATED BETWEEN BEL AIR MD...POINT LOOKOUT MD...AND HAGERSTOWN MD BETWEEN 6 PM THIS EVENING TO 6 AM TUESDAY. THIS INCLUDES THE GREATER BALTIMORE AND WASHINGTON METROPOLITAN AREAS.

12 hours of 70-80 MPH wind gusts are going to devastate the trees around here. Will also be interesting to see how all the housing developments around here hold up.Also - I just lost my DirecTV signal for 30 seconds. That sucked.

A few days back they were talking that there might be snow involved with this system, I haven't heard any mention of that for the past couple days, is that no longer part of the scenario?

yup, no complaints yet. just noticed i was missing a shingle on the side of my house that had a nice hole coming in, so i threw up a board. it will be interesting tonight though, if those winds come like they say they will we will have all sorts of crap flying around. 3/4 of my neighbors have pumpkins and halloween decs, along with the usual stuff. i have to say though, seeing a witch with a broom flying around

Up to 54k now, 30k in Suffolk, 24k Nassau. They recalled all repaid crews until the winds die down. Spokeman said 7 to 10 days to restore services.

Damn, that's a lot of trips back and forth to fill up gas tanks for generators.

Worst for tidal flooding is done for us...but not the worst of the wind and potential for power outages. The next 7 -10 hours will bring the worst of the wind.
