Hurricane Sandy

I was checking the track of this storm, especially the wind speed chart. And it's just ridiculous. It's chugging along, causing no problems, and then it makes a sharp turn right into the Philly area, directly over your hood.

But it's so huge. I read a thing somewhere that hurricane force winds are being measured 400 miles from the center. If it's symetrical, that means this storm is 800 miles wide. No matter where it hits, it's gonna get the entire East coast.

I'm about to head outside to take down all the halloween decorations and my garden stuff, bring in the lawn chairs, and tie the garbage cans to the fence. Then we're going camping. Coming home just in time to ride out the storm. Gotta remember to move the cars away from the trees.

I hope you fare well, UT.
