Ok. I'm in southwest Ohio and the windows are rattling. The wind is actually howling and if any of my goddamn trees (five left, mostly oaks) come down I'm leaving them right where they fall until they rot. (18 months ago I had to clean up seven of twelve trees that came down from straight line winds): Cost: 4,000 clams.
snow/rain tomorrow night for trick or treat. Bet there won't be many kids out at all.

Pieces are going to start flying off my flimsy abode...as far west Ohio as i am. If electric goes out I'm screwed...using space heaters and an electric blanket.
Can't imagine what you easterners are going through. |

man, it's HOWLING out there! If I have no electric I am truly screwed as NO space heaters or generator; though you'd think after these past two years of spaced out weather I'd have both handy-but I don't. I only have a Coleman lantern! LOL! And blankets and three kitties and a doggie. That'll do it.

I have so many layers on i look like the Stay-puft marshmallow man. Yeah that's my story.
My heaters are electric and i have no generator either. However, if worse comes to worst (is that the correct phrasing?) I have two brothers with lots of extra space in their homes! |

I tried to warn all of you to get ready and the worst still hasn't hit. I'm praying for all of you

WV - wind isn't bad yet but the rain got serious this afternoon. Temps have dropped into the 30's so it'll be snow tonight - at which point we'll likely lose power. I have lanterns and a 4-season sleeping bag, cooking candles, etc.
And the university hasn't canceled classes for tomorrow morning! I'm supposed to turn up for an 8:00 Biostats class.
