Hope its just rain and no big power outages. I'm gonna get the generator out tomorrow just in case.

There will be power outages. No doubt about that. It's how far-reaching and how long -- that is the question.

I will definitely be watching my cories, though. Tropical low pressure sure seems to get some of them to spawn.

Hmmm. Now I'm worried:

"Sandy is shaping up to be a historic storm for the mid-Atlantic and Northeast U.S. that has few precedents."

This from a meteorologist who knows his stuff.

I went to the grocery store to pick up a few supplies like food I can easily cook on a camping stove and gas for our generator.

It never fails that we lose power in big storms because our power lines in South Reston are above ground. I'm just hoping that it won't be as bad as the last storm that we had in June when I was out on the West Coast. We supposedly didn't have power for three days and a huge tree took out our shed and my greenhouse.

We are prepared!

Based on its name, it will be a healing storm. (Since it was named after a medical doctor.)

Or an anti-climactic/climatic non-event as is so often the case with predictions of impending havoc/doom.

I hope you are right, Sam.

My parents from Lewes, DE are currently visiting me for my daughter's baptism. They were scheduled to fly back to Philly and then to Salisbury on Tuesday. Guess they will be here an extra day now at least.

Wish I was there actually. I got to surf the Halloween swell of 1991 in Florida. First time I was ever in 15' waves. I am bummed I am going to miss Halloween swell II!
