thanx. I just hope it helps you and others.
I mentioned taking the pressure off because it’s easy to get frustrated and pissed off when you don’t have control of the situation. saw more than a few fights happen, usually between members of the same family.
some people, kids and adults, will be scared of even small t-storms and winds that shake trees for mths after the hurricane.
after the storm there will be tree limbs that will be hung up and will fall later. keep an eye out.
after things get back to normal look over the trees left standing around your house. had one snap and fall on my powerline 10 mths after the storm. it snapped about 10’ off the ground and you could see that it was rotting from the inside from damage it suffered.

if it really tears up your neighborhood, trees are down, signs missing, fences blown away, houses destroyed, you may get lost. I’m not kidding. most people navigate their way around by landmarks. after Hugo a lot of big oaks were blown over because of shallow roots, billboards were gone, a 100 ft repeater tower was blown over. these were landmarks around my area.

I’m not trying to scare anyone. just letting you know what MIGHT happen. it’s better to be prepared for the worst and have it just slide by than ignore it and be in deep shit.[/quote]

Houses destroyed?? its a hurricane, not a tornado, lol. I love how people over exxagerate things. [/quote]
I didn’t exagerate shit! Sullivans Island after Hugo

with hurricanes come rain and flooding, no? How can that not cause damage?

We already have leaks and the storm hasn’t even come full force. Granted this is 50+ year old crappy military housing, but still.

You OBVIOUSLY don’t know what a hurricane is, Corky.

So, here’s the definition: Tropical cyclone - Wikipedia

Oh, “Tropical Cyclone” is just another name for “Hurricane”… Just so you wouldn’t get thrown off by seeing it called a different name.

Same here. Our patio door leaks from the ceiling when it rains and the wind blows just right. SO glad I’m sick and did not go to work.

My work is still open…all the gamblers are coming from Atlantic City and Delaware and Connecticut to PA…like we’re not in the path of the hurricane too…

So far, so good. We’re bout to get smoked round 8’O clock. We’ve had some damage & deaths already though. One being a 11yr old from a falling tree. Not something to take lightly at all.

WE’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO GET THIS BULLSHIT IN NEW JERSEY, WHAT THE FUCK!

I’m not all that worried… it’s New Jersey, even if the power does go out, it will be back on pretty soon. They’re pretty good with that, and we’ve had some absolutely brutal weather the last few years in regards to ice storms and what not.

But still taking the necessary precautions, just because if shit really goes wrong, the power companies are going to be totally inundated.

It’s making my job at the newspaper relatively interesting though, I’ll tell you that.[/quote]
Hey i live in NJ too how bad are we supposed to get hit?

Please keep us all informed on what’s going on.
