I saw it, and it was more than a mooning! It was streaking!
He just showed the moving trees across the street
by Rockefeller Plaza .. they’re moving, so I can
see how the upper floors of skyscrapers will be
feeling this.
OK, I take it all back. Irene is going up the Atlantic as forecast, not the Chesapeake.
This is right down the road from me. Tornado destroyed two houses.
I have no idea what you're talking about, so here's a nice picture of a barometer.
Morons on display! I bet his mother is so proud!
Meh.......I’ve seen better....
;-) LOL
Best of luck to you as well, Stay safe, and smile! :)
Best of luck, Gabz.
You can send me a beer via Freepmail.
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.
It was earlier today. One of our fellow FReepers saw it and posted it in this very thread! There was also a separate thread, I think. A bunch of young guys walked past a reporter doing a live remote and one of them dropped his drawers.
We just heard the schuykill river that runs through philadelphia will crest at 15 feet highest level since 1869.
Haven’t had power flicker in a couple hours. Wind and rain has picked up and not liking the flooding reports we’re starting to get from around the area and the worst is yet to come.
We lost power an hour and a half ago. Generator is running.
Not a moon, a full frontal of a dude...never saw anything like it. It’s on YouTube.lol
Cool, the Red Sox are up by 4 in the 2nd game of the twin bill.
The Yankees double header games are rain postponed.
I think the verb of the weekend is “hunker.” :)
