Supposed to just be lotsa rain up here in NH last I looked. I'll shuffle some things around and make space for the truck in the barn to keep it safe from falling branches but I already got canned soup and the house has a 175 gal pressurized tank for water so I'm good.

 

 

Also have 800-1000 rounds each of 9mm and .45 in case anyone wants to try and take that stuff from me. :)

Best of luck to everyone on the East coast. We had a storm Memorial weekend with 80 mph winds that only lasted 30 minutes that caused alot of damage, can't even imagine what you guys are going to go through.

 

God be with you.

Just gonna put some gas in the truck....get a few groceries....clean the rain gutters on the house.....almost forgot, a stop at the liquor store. I heard something about 100 mph winds in my area of Connecticut :) I won't believe it till it happens

Prepping up here in NH as well. Seems like this could either be a horrible disaster or nothing. Can't determine which at this point.

Central Mass. here. I heard this morning that the eye is supposed to go right over us.

 

we got some extra water, filled both gas tanks. Got some propane for the grill and some coleman gas bottles for the coleman stove just in case.

 

we will take in the pool toys and patio furniture then just sit and wait.

I grew up near Belvidere NJ and lived right on the Delaware River.

I remember Andrew, I was a kid yet so I don't remember the details of the strength when it hit up there but I believe this is going to be stronger and more direct.

 

Prepare and stay safe.

I live in Maryland, on an island in the middle of the Bay. We're only a few feet above sea level. I got my generator running, going to the store going to get some bottled water. Tonight I'm moving most of my stuff to the second floor.

 

The county that I live in has issued a volunteer evacuation order.

 

The last major hurricane, Isabel, did some minor flooding, got to keep the sump pump running.

Wife and kids are in Eastern NC and I am seeing that they should be getting tropical storm winds only. I am praying that is it as i am a long ways away and they had some nasty tornadoes hit in April not far from the house, so we dont need any more nasty weather to come down on us.

 

You guys further up the coast, be safe and I hope this thing dont turn nasty on any of us. I will cross my fingers for all of us.

Just starting to see it here in NH. Raining a bit and fairly windy. Power has been on and off. Nothing special yet, just another storm.
