Theatrical plot. Gentlemen, it was an honour writing with you. -_-

 

Wonder if that happens in vatsim! LoL

I flew at Vatsim Japan after their Fukushima incident. Best 'world comes together' episode of my sim flying career.

Things are getting VERY bad at the shore... I am not feeling good about this at all...

Stay safe everyone, every time you hear Long Branch on the news think of me!

Out west, we're not in the path ... but we do have to worry about earthquakes.

 

Anyway, good luck, everyone. Stay safe.

Coming right for us here in Allentown, Pa. In 2 hours (3 PM), it's supposed to start getting strong...then continuing through tomorrow. Loss of power is a big concern, and I have enormous trees on my property next to the house. Hopefully, we'll all get through this safely.

The trees are a double threat. Both to houses, and to the power grid.

It's been windy here and some light rain. It seems like the winds are getting stronger now.

 

During Irene, we had a short scare and were without power for about an hour, one of the sump pits just started to flood. Now I have a battery on that one and a small generator.

Wind picking up sharply here in Bethesda, MD, rain beginning to blow horizontally.

I live in NYC and the wind is picking up rapidly. It was raining earlier but now it's just drizzling.

It is now really bad on the Jersey Shore... The next 12 hours should be very intense. Losing power here on the shore now as well. Probably going to be offline soon...

 

Winds @ 2pm...

Power is now flickering intermittently. You know, it's when the power is gone that you realize humanity has not really advanced that far, and that your home is really just a strangely shaped cave.......

 

Meanwhile, the crane of the tallest residential skyscraper in NewYork (still under construction) has just collapsed, bending in half so that it is dangling over the street hundreds of feet in the air

Yup! Looking at it now on the news. It's crazy.

Here is the shore right now... This is my last trip to the beach today. 5 minutes outside and I was soaked and freezing... Can't believe the temperature change!!

Winds are 70mph + now, it was tough to stand and walk when the gusts blew so I had to abort filming. Could barely keep the lens clean anyway but it gives you an idea of what it is like on the shore...

Well guys I am on the Eastern Shore of Maryland (just outside of Salisbury, MD), and we have been getting steady rain since last night. the winds have started picking up with recorded gusts of about 53knot so far. The winds should begin intensifying by about 7pm and continue on into tomorrow. All of the flying in the NorthEast has been canceled (except for the hurricane hunters).

 

To all of my fellow simmers that will be affected, either by the hurricane or the snow storm that will be affecting the PA, WV area, my prayers go out to you and your families as well. Not sure how long my power will remain on as there over 3000 folks in the Salisbury, MD area that have already reported loosing power.
