Hurricane Sandy is bringing her big booty up the eastern coast and looks like sometime between Monday and Tuesday she's going to park it somewhere between Virginia and New England. Anyone going to be affected? Anyone been affected already?

I'm in southern Delaware, which is where they think the center of the storm will be. They just issued a flood advisory through Tuesday 6am. We've got batteries, water, and are making food that will keep for a couple days, just in case power goes out. I'm really not worrying because my girlfriend's mom is doing enough for everyone in the house haha. Where we live is far enough inland that any sort of flooding shouldn't be felt here, just a power outage at worst. My dad lives right on the bay, but it's been through hurricanes before and I'm sure he's not going anywhere (unless they make him).

I might get some amount of snow out of it in Western PA. Depending what track it takes. I'm not doing anything major though. Maybe dig out a snowshovel.

Sandy just turned into a tropical storm.

So I'm nowhere near Hurricane Sandy, but I've got https://www.dropbox.com/s/dqxg4ecke1gyman/Photo%2027-10-12%2017%2031%2017.png for it from my nifty storm tracking app which just updated a little more than half an hour ago if anyone's interested. Also talks about which areas are tropical storm/depression wind strength. Though for the past year or so I haven't seen any of these storms going along the eastern coast which is kind of strange.

If the [censored] has been downgraded into a tropical storm that's good for me. They we're saying my area was going to see 10" of rain and a mess if snow. I've got enough gas for my generator to last four days. I live in an area that is prone to extended power outages and up until hurricane Irene it never flooded but now it does.
