    You just now getting rain and wind. the weather channel acts like your area is really getting hammered. Just waiting here for it. The wind has picked up some more and gettin g that continual misty rain. Sure must be a slow mover.

    Power already out in some neighborhoods up here, but it doesn't seem so bad. WTF? Wind is steady and picking up, light rain going sideways. Hoping my hotel stays powered. Good luck, seaboard!

    Heres some flooding pics i took, these were taken almost an hour before high tide. People are expecting the water to be at least 4 feet higher tonight. People will probably lose their homes here on the shorelineImageUploadedByTapatalk1351524885.235170.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1351524941.736022.jpg
    If you look close at the first picture, those are all houses on the left side. In the second picture the water is close to 3 feet deep, you can barley see the guard rail.

    Heres my town docks half hour before high tide. During irene there was 3 feet of water in this building, its a bar/restaurant that just re-opened 4 months ago. Tonight the water will probably be up to the roof line.ImageUploadedByTapatalk1351529104.829785.jpg

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    It's not a legitimate storm. If it were a legitimate storm, the government would have ways of taking care of it.

    Just got the word that my company is telling all non essential employees to leave at 2 and not to come in tomorrow. Glad I'm considered non essential. We are a utility company so I feel bad for all the people that have to stay.

    We have a place at the Delaware beaches looks like they're getting pretty beat up from everything I've seen as well as Ocean City MD.
