    Expected to get 2-4" of snow in my living area. More than that in my working area. I'm okay with that but not at all okay with losing power. The last storm in July I lost power for 8 days! Be safe everyone!

    Yeah, school wasn't cancelled, and it's not cancelled tomorrow. I guess my little Taco will come in handy. It's raining sideways now.

    A couple of months ago when that huge storm hit VA, I was without power for 2 weeks, so we're prepared :D

    Sorry that was another fire on 18th and New York they also had a fire at the bank earlier. The beach front is taking a beating in Cape May and lots of flooding. The Wildwoods are a mess. My in laws are riding it out in West Wildwood and have been sending me pics I posted a couple on live. Once I get on the computer I am going to move them to this thread. I am in Lower Township 2 miles outside of Wildwood Crest and you can hear the the ocean like it was at the end of the street.

    Just got power back after 90 min. We are usually the last. Must have been a main branch. I'm sure it will go out again. Stronger stuff to come yet.

    Satoshi'd grill. blacked out badges. aftermarket sound system. De-chromed and color matched. OME 885s + Dakars with 3rd leaf removed. LR UCAs. Scs stealth 6 with 285 duratracs. BAMF sliders
    Its suprising how many people still have power. Mine has been out since 4, lots of trees down, we are getting gusts around 70mph. High tide is coming! Looks like we are going to break a record here in ct. The highest the tide ever got was 10.4' in 1938, it might get up to 11' tonight around midnight.
