It looks like it's going right between New York and DC. Time to get gas for the generator, although
we've never been without electricity for more than a few hours. Dominion does a good job.

This one has me worried also. Never felt that way before. Glad I've got a spare bottle of propane
for the grill and a generator for the fridge. Should keep us alive for a while.

You should be OK that far inland. We don't even put up the shutters
for a Cat 1


Our place is about 5 miles inland on the Connecticut Shoreline... I
guess we will start getting ready after work today:)

While it may be just a cat 1, (a very large cat 1, HF winds 105 miles from center )..
Trees and other infrastructure aren't perpared for it. Thusly, many millions will be left
without power.. perhaps several weeks.

Yeah, I was up. There was a strange quake off the Coast of Canada, very
north and any Tsunami would be hitting an area that has never had one
hit before I think. Looks like a false alarm cause I don't remember what
time it was, but they were an hour into the time for it to hit, there
was nothing so far.
