Kinda seems like the east coast could be threatened...



CNN?

Fake news. Gonna be sunny and warm. Beach weather. :-)

I think by the time it gets to us it will be just a strong nor'easter.
Rather have it now than in February.


I hope the models are better for you than they were for us. 3 days
out, Irma was a Miami storm. It came in over Marco, 100+ miles west.
I have been off the air so I have not been looking at the plots and
the news is pretty superficial if it is not coming here. They just
tell us "relax".



Good to hear you survived and didn't have too much damage. Living
without power for over a week is a bitch though and those contractor
type generators definitely burn a lot of gas. I had a 12.5Kw set up
during Wilma but quickly realized my supply of gas (5 or 6, 5 gal jugs)
wasn't going to last long if I ran it all the time. I used the little
Honda most of the time, just for the refer, a couple of lights and the
Direct TV box and TV.

We are currently in a Tropical Storm Watch for Jose. It appears it will
track well south of us but will expand, spreading some rain and wind
tomorrow and Wednesday. No big deal around here. I am watching the
other one, "Maria". Still way to early to predict but the Euro model
has it tracking right up the coast and hitting Cape Cod.
