That's it! Lol. It sounds familiar so I think I went through it or near it back when I worked for first company but that's been a while.

Sorry for derailing your thread Dance!

Not sure how I'd prepare for this one but I live on the coast and we always prepare by keeping water on hand and sometimes mre (nasty stuff but works). I'd probably keep lots of firewood on hand if I were up north in case power goes out.

Ami will be working, of course, I will be home with survival candles storm radio, cat, lots of things to read and, we should be fine, perhaps some power outages, but they should be short as we're not going to be in it proper.

I don't think I would be worrying so much if I could be there with Gaige during whatever blows into Maryland...Gaige, for the record, is not worried. It is just her woman who is worked up about it...

We only very briefly lost power when Irene sailed through here last year, but I have a feeling this may be a little crazier than that: Much slower moving, and all of the unknowns that could easily shift it from a reasonably predictable hurricane to a nasty unpredictable nor'easter once it mingles with that cold front heading south.

Give me a hurricane over a nor'easter any day!!

OK, starting my storm survival shopping list:
Wine
giant jar of Nutella
