Irene is right over Marsh Harbor, Abaco right now where my boat is in
the yard. I'll wait a week for em to get power up again to find if
she is ok.
meanwhile, y'all up the east coast are gonna find out how much "fun"
hurricanes can be. Good Luck

Looks like the eye will be a good distance west of us when it finally
arrives up here.
Should be lots of wind and a coastal surge. Good test for the
Yukon. ;-)

Looks like there is a reasonable chance it's going to shoot right up
Chesapeake Bay, or a bit west or east.

Thanks (I think). Having survived a few hurricanes in Florida, now I
have to survive one up here while living on the boat. Stay tuned.

I'm getting reports out of the Exumas from people I know that it was a
bad storm but not as devastating as initially feared. Good luck with
your boat in Marsh Harbour.

Wayne, I hope you have a good place to ride this one out.
I think I would park the boat and find a nice hotel in Binghampton.

We're going to be behind the hurricane barrier in Stamford, CT. That
takes the worry out of the surge issue, just have to hope for a strong
dock. :-)

Good luck with that, stupid.
