This is the 11 pm eastern time, hurricane image. The eye of the storm has collapsed, but it's just north of Norfolk, Virginia.

It seems like there is always someone who had to be someplace when it's storming.

I picked the generator up about 6 yrs ago when electric company was reporting power was going to be out for 48 hrs. Got the generator home and running and was hooking up everything.....and the power came back on. We haven't lost power for more than 1/2 an hour since.

That's good to hear!!!
Now it's just a MAJOR storm. Still don't anyone in it's way go shopping!!!

 

[JerryRM]

Uh oh, call for a water rescue, party is on top of the car....sheesh, happens every time! I mean.....DUUUUUHH!!!

Of course, Tom. Every major storm we have here, people go to the ocean to see the big waves. Some of them never get to go home.

Yep get it and then you won't need it. At least that is what I'm hoping for when DH and I buy a new riding mower with a snow blade.

That's what I was talking about earlier---A surfer died that went to ride the big waves.

I'm going to try to get some sleep, goodnight all and thanks for the positive vibes! Really appreciate it-be safe everyone!

I'm thinking of getting a plow or snowblower attachment for my lawn tractor. I'm getting to old to be pushing the old snowblower around.

Come to think of it, I should also enclose it, have AC for the summer and heat for the winter, and a CD player.
Keep dreaming, Jerry. lol.

 

[JerryRM]

Goodnight Starry and stay safe.

 

[jj2]

Hey you got the same dream as me Jerry!!!

Guess I'll just be happy about the snow blade.

 

[TomCatt]

Just checked Hurricane Tracker, strongest winds yet to come. Even the storms like the I-95 corridor

 

[JerryRM]

Come to think of it, it would make more sense to just sell the house, pack my bags and move somewhere where they never heard of hurricanes or blizzards.

I wanna be a Storm Chaser when I grow up........oh crap.....that's right......I already grew up

Grab the DH and move to California, Jan. I will see you there and we can have a thank God we are out of the snow belt party.

Stay inside Tom so you won't get blown away!!!

I'd love to move to Hawaii but then there's volcanoes---and the cost of living is

Physically you have, Tom, but mentally you don't have to grow up, if you don't want to.

 

[TomCatt]

Nite Starry, stay safe!

 

[TomCatt]

Dang, wouldn't mind watching some TV, but then we would lose power
