Hang tight Soopa, the eye pressure forecast is 946mb on landfall which is 'Long Island Express' territory. Hopefully that'll be revised upward as time goes on.

Thanks Yubba, but I am liberal myself, sorry bud.

I am like you my friend, I want what is best for all of us as a whole. We just have differing ways on how to accomplish it.

God bless you Yubba. This country needs people like you as much as it needs people like me.

I always been a big fan of you.

Ditto, now I got to blow my nose and wipe a tear from my eye, you be safe, depending where this guy makes land fall the wind will be most likely coming in on you from the north, we didn't have any lightning with this storm, ,it was moving to fast but all bets are off when this thing hits that cold front...I would take a good look at the stuff on the north side of your house, dead trees, branches,, any thing that could fall on your power lines while you still have power,, my favorite bar burned down,, by a hurricane 15 years ago because the power lines were pulled out and started a fire. I was born an raised in southern tier New York I remember the flood of 72 that took the city of Corning out,, so you folks better watch your streams, creeks and rivers this storm has kill 22 people already because of flash flooding lets not let it take anymore.

I take my experiences from the 1991 holloween storm, that I watched with my own eyes carry away 1 ton sections of the boardwalks. filled my old home with 5 feet of water, and pretty much totaled the house.

I used to live 2 houses from the beach, and a simple nor'easter did me in, Irene gave me a swimming pool in my basement.

I am not fear mongering, just letting folks know what these storms can do to us.

Sometimes it is overhyped, but sometimes your back deck floats away, or your house comes off the foundation.

If the storm surge doesn't get ya, a flash flood might, if you are high and dry a falling tree could up root ya, if ya don't have trees the lightning will get ya because you are the tallest thing to strike, and if you survive all of that it will be the neighbors lawn furniture flying through the air that takes you out because he was too lazy to put it up.

I love how all the so called experts on the weather channel are all from states with no coastline.

The rube on TV now is from Omaha...

Wtf am I watching. So I am supposed to believe this guy, when he never seen a storm surge?

Purple nurple for the win!

In case anyone cares, in my local area they are expecting a 9ft storm surge, which is not bad in NJ's case as we have large sandy beaches, that equals some water in the road along Ocean Avenue, but far from a Katrina like case.

It is the rain and wind damage that will hurt us.

As said before, Jersey is used to big nasty windstorms, but 3 days of heavy rain is what will hurt us.

We are better off with a blizzard, we are more used to that.

starting to get chilly here in florida, fricken yankee weather, I'll take my 2 weeks of winter here in florida, I was to fly up to Corning \ Elmira NY area next week to go deer hunting\coyote hunting, pops said the coyotes are eating the neighbors cats like marshmellows. That's if this isn't the start of a new Ice Age. I just notice that I got a 128 downloads and I'm looking at train sims I'm a sick puppy. Kind da thought it would be nice to curl up by the fire with a nice train sim and not blow anything up,,,, WHAT WAS I THINKIN. at least I got away from Metal of Honor, Band of Brothers, Call of Duty, and Rainbow Six, all that sniper action was giving me the willies in my sleep.

New York has a 50% chance of getting five foot surges, which is about the same height as its sea defences, so there could be a bit of over topping here and there. But yeah, as Soopa said, the real problem is going to come from the rain.
