THANKS EVERYONE! We've been preparing for this "Frankenstein" Hurricane since Thurs. We bought a generator, stocked up with bottled water, batteries & other necessities. We've also got extra pet food for our Yorkies & cats, extra water for them & have several antique oil lamps lined up & ready as well. PP&L (our power co.) emailed their customers with an emergency list and are going to have additional people on the job. One of my concerns is that our next door neighbor's huge, rotting tree is going to fall and destroy our pool and fence. Everyone who is going to be hit by "FrankenSandy" take every precaution & hoping everyone comes thru this safe & unscathed.

I have a really bad feeling about this one. If anyone has any means of leaving the area I would do so if you can. This may be a really major storm of very bad damages. The possiblity of a lot of lives could be lost. head for higher ground further inland love doris

We have a possible Nor'easter heading our way because of Sandy, but nothing like 50 inches of snow! We're in "flash flood" status for the next few days... -
The schools here are being stupid! They said they've set up emergency school bus routes. We're not going to send out kid to school tomorrow or Tues. Family first & safety most important. Its the parents who need to decide what's best for their kids during this hurricane, not the schools.

Schools around here have already been closed for Monday and Tuesday. State of Emergency. We were evacuated from LBI and are up north now
-
Stay safe everyone out there!

Stay safe everyone!

We're not cancelled yet, either, even though all of the schools around us are.

This does not look good at all... Hope everything goes well and that everyone is safe.

Better to be safe than sorry. Advanced warning enables better survival planning and chances are surviving. love doris

Here is webcam of NY Harbor...scarey

Thanks for the link. I just watched (I'm assuming to be) a family, pull up- get out of the car- get blown around for a second- and jump right back in the car.
I never understood people with the mentality of "oh, those warnings are for OTHER people- not US! We're special!" : -
30 min. AFTER I called transportation & informed them not to pick up our kid, we get a canned call & an email stating school was being closed today. This morning, school is more on the ball - got a canned call mid morning & an email stating no school tomorrow either. About an hour or so ago, we brought all our outdoor Halloween decorations, live pumpkins, flags & 2 flag poles indoors. 3rd, huge flag pole for our American flag is cemented in the ground & doubt it's gonna get torn out. Our creek's banks our overflowing but our yard isn't flooded, but our neighbor's yard is flooding. Very grateful we still have power.

On the lighter side of Sandy, I just saw this message on a friend's Facebook page: "If your apartment is hit by a dolphin, DO NOT GO OUT TO SEE IF THE DOLPHIN IS OK! That's how the hurricane tricks you into coming outside."
