This has been a bad week for Braineack, first the (mini) earthquake and now this. I don't know if he'll ever recover. Maybe Faeflora will drown or something.

So far, Ashburn VA is holding steady No big issues yet; but it's getting a bit more serious out there now than it was a few hours ago. Fully expect to be under battery power in the next hour or 2. It's blowing decent but not fierce

Thanks for keeping us in your thoughts!!!

Cheers,
Prospero

I hear that they shut down the entire NYC subway system.

Is that a first? I honestly don't remember whether the trains were still running (apart from the lines directly affected by WTC station) after 9/11.

everyone up here is a bunch of ******....

every store is out of food and flashlights and such.. i just was out doing a midnight run with a bunch of friends and it was awesome being the only people on the roads... the beaches look normal.. i bet if this storm went up the gulf the florida people wouldnt even have flinched at it.

i read earlier about the so called deaths that this storm has caused... one was a guy having a heart attack while boarding up his house. really? how is that the hurricanes fault

flooding is about the only thing we have to worry about

I was always under the assumption that California would be the first state to break off from the US and sink into the ocean.

Guess I was wrong.
