Re: Hurricane Sandy
Tomb Guards this morning at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. These guys are amazing. My dad was a bugler that played Taps there for 25 years and I got to know these guys pretty well when I was young. Really cool picture. They guard the tomb through anything!

Re: Hurricane Sandy
I haven't heard from my uncle. He is sure to be under mandatory evacuation and has kids inland to stay with.
Atlantic Beach: http://maps.google.com/?ll=40.597271...53442&t=m&z=10 Hit the plus once and it appears in the middle, on Long Beach. Zoom out a bit and you will see how screwed that is. |
Re: Hurricane Sandy
Just reading the local paper that the thumb area of Michigan could experience up to 35' waves off Lake Huron. Unreal. The only saving grace is the low water levels in the lake over the last few years.

Re: Hurricane Sandy
Jim Cantore said the water could be 6-10 deep in and around Manhattan and the battery. That's nuts. Be careful out there. High tide is coming later this evening.

Re: Hurricane Sandy
It's getting nasty here. I don't know how this'll play out. My place is in Evacuation Zone A. My GF and I carried my most valued belonging up to the second floor this morning before getting the hell out of there. Not sure what will become of everything in the basement or on the ground floor. The photos I'm seeing online of my neighborhood aren't good. Fingers crossed.

For those of us in harm's way, Google built a special "crisis map" for this storm that is interactive and shows storm path, tidal surges can even show you where the to find an emergency shelter. Good luck, all!

Re: Hurricane Sandy
It's been pounding down with winds blowing all day here. Supposed to be getting worse as the night goes on. I spent yesterday getting the panel box wired up for my wife and son as I dont know when I'll be back home. They told me to pack for 5 days and I'm looking at 16 on, 8 off for those 5 days.....the fun life of working for a power company.

Re: Hurricane Sandy
The Battery has now broken the record for storm tide, 11.62' last I saw, breaks the old record of 11.2' set in 1821. And levels are still rising.
An apartment building at 8th and 14th just had its facade collapse. The apartments on the upper two floors are completely exposed. |
Re: Hurricane Sandy
I hope all of you being affected by this stay safe!!
