    I'm in Richmond, Virginia and people are going crazy over here. The shelves at Wal-mart are EMPTY:sick: . I bought 12 candles... that's all I need for a good time! :drinker: I already dusted off the board games!:smokin:

    I hope the "state of emergency" warning is wrong and it won't be bad. The storm we had in July knocked out our power for 3 days... I hope that doesn't happen again but they are predicting that power will be out for 6-9 days. The worst part is that I may not be able to log in for days!!! :grumble:

    I'm in Delaware and supposedly right in the hurricane's path. Just praying and trusting God that it will not be as bad as they say. Everyone affected be safe!

    I am in South jersey - Ground Zero - it's getting nerve wracking, they are already in Emergency Management mode - have never seen anything like this before. Thanks for the thoughts, hopefully it will weaken.


    Good luck and be safe!!!!

    The news has gotta talk about something other than the election! It's all hype. It's gonna be just rain and wind. No biggie.

    Even here in Pittsburgh and west into Ohio is calling for TONS of rain and wind. We will all have to wait and see how it tracks. Everyone stay safe and dry.

    Living in New Orleans, I know first-hand on how hurricanes can change people's lives and throw you in another direction. Hurricane Katrina changed my life. I hope there is no significant loss or damage for anyone with this storm. I wouldn't wish what I went through on my worst enemy. Be safe East Coast.

    No difference in strength or size, the only reason why Katrina stood out was the flooding when the levees broke. The only place that should have flooding just as bad is lower Manhattan.

    I understand they are planning to evacuate Cape May and the barrier islands. Stay safe!

    The evacuation of the barrier islands was by 4pm today. My aunt is with Cape May County Bd of Health and has to stay put in N Cape May. They are 2 blocks from the bay. I have one friend in Brigantine who refuses to evacuate :(
