Hurricane Sandy Live Thread I

[Morpheus2009]

From Delaware, a similar story.

[metmom]

Our local weather channel in South Jersey is saying that he believes the storm will be coming in around 6PM. If it does the surge will beat high tide by 2 hours.

That's not a lot of leeway.

Why isn’t the pic Sandy?

[metmom]

I was there as a kid in the 60’s.

I wonder what’s going to left of the coast by tomorrow evening.

Pray for these men. There may be no camera-toting tourists to record their activities but they are there doing their jobs just the same.

Slight rain and some wind gusts in Westchester county, NY. Overall, it’s not bad. Hope it stays this way.

Looks like Jersey and LI are going to get hit the worst.

[Liberty Valance]

Prayers up for folks in Sandy’s path.

Rush quoting Jay Carney (WH Spokeslady): (paraphrasing) when asked if Obama can or will postpone election, Jay does not answer.

Here on Long Island, we have been having strong gusts of wind and rain...then nothing.

However it is not supposed to hit us head on until tonight through Tuesday.

These gusts now scare me. I’m in the suburbs and there is nothing but trees ALL around.

Parked my truck in the “most” safe spot.

Chaser dude back on air. Going to the ocean at Tuckerton. Losing feed frequently. Got a call from Fox - Shep to interview in about an hour.

My sister has a home in Ocean City,NJ. Right on the bay(10st st).

I don't think there will be much left.

She is riding out the storm in a hotel futher inland.
