Ran to my window, I’m only 20 blocks up the road and my trees are slightly moving and rain is a bit harder. Still nothing scary. I know the windows in most office buildings were secured shut for the weekend.

What do they do for the skycraper windows to
secure them? That is a fearsome thought ..
those windows bursting and falling down below.

Just flipped to Weather Channel, and Bryan Norcross
just finished giving tips. He’ll be on periodically
thru the night.

His tip was to take zip lock bags and fill them 2/3
full of water, seal tight, and jam them into the
freezer. Will help for afterward for food preservation
and for the melted water.

I’ll never forget him during Hurricane Andrew. His calm
voice, solid information and guidance thru it all for
hours .. he was our rock, as we anticipated what turned out to be 150++ mph winds (likely 180+ at the home I evacuated). I was so grateful, as I was freaking out, until we finally lost power at 4am.
