“Foxnews is saying they’ll have 10-12 hours of 75-90 mph winds in Manhatten. Going to be lots of broken glass.”

Worse, high winds mean storm surges. nyc is on the water. How much of the electrical/cable/water and transportation infrastructure is underground?

And then let’s remember that this is the liberal and effete northeast that we’re talking about. Not the south that normally gets these storms and is better prepared. It’ll be mass chaos in two-three days when the government doesn’t show up with fresh goat cheese pizza and perrier.

I heard at least 5-8 feet? Prepping here in North East Jersey, got the generators ready, food, water, supplies.

1. The storm surge is going to funnel straight into Newark, NJ.
2. The Passaic river basin will be flooded for days if not a week or longer.

I'll grant you that it's liberal. Effete?? Don't be ridiculous. If you're talking about Manhattan metrosexuals, then you should be specific, but don't lump in the rest of us. We're Yankees, and we're busy making our boats fast, our homes secure and our families safe.

Just like you.
