Frankenstorm Sandy
Are you in its currently expected path?
What if anything are you doing to prep? How worried are you? Current models have it making U.S. landfall very close to me, either late Monday or early Tuesday - just earlier this evening it was predicted on the same path 6hours earlier so so much can obviously change. My main worry is that I'll be stuck at home in an extended power outage with my ex, step-d, her bf, a baby, and two scared/bored kids. I'm selfishly praying that I can continue with my original plan to leave home for my Tues-Thurs conference in DC on Monday afternoon, and deal with the storm from there.

I don't live in it's path but I'm driving right to it with my next load. Will be delivering in PA on Monday. So a lil nervous about it.
Luckily my company gives a shit about it's employees and they stress to us on a daily basis that if we don't feel safe driving in it, park it. Load can't get there if driver can't. |

Depends on where you are in PA how bad it will be, cold yep but you may not have snow if you deliver say north of Pittsburg. Says the guy who's wife just pointed all this out.

I have no idea what part of PA. I know it's a placed called Mehooonay? I think is how it's spelled.
I have never driven in snow or on ice before so that's the only thing I'm truly worried about. Lol. |

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. |

Be aware of this storm's progress...Eastern Seaboard...New England
Weather Forecasters are calling this a "perfect storm"....like the one in 1991, the movie was based on, by same name. That storm caused millions in damages. This one is predicted to cause BILLIONS.
There is a Front coming in from Midwest, an Arctic Front coming in, and this Carribbean front...all expected to collide Sunday night/Monday am. It has a 200 mile radius, and is predicted to coast along in the Atlantic BUT with this radius, the "trifecta" colliding at once, will create a mess. Torrential rains for East Coast, flooding, and snowfall for New England. This storm bears watching by all of us along Eastern Seaboard from Fla. all the way up to New England...stay safe...all of us!!!

Ya'll just come to AZ where you'll be landlocked, hot and sweaty, and the worst that can happen when a storm hits is you might get some sand stuck in yer butt-crack.
Seriously though, please be safe and take good care.
