Long Island here. Looks like it is coming close. Tomorrow I have to "batten down the hatches" in the backyard. Just trying not to scare the kids. My older son who will be turning 21 on Saturday will be going to Atlantic City with a bunch of friends so he won't be here.
My 11 year old just gets frightened when we loose power so I hope we dont. Just in case my dh will get the generater ready.
It probably will just be rain with a little wind that's all.

Shirl, great thread!!!!! Prayers to you and your family and for your DIL and those grand babies that they will be safe. We are about 2 hrs from the Outer banks and as of now everyone here is on pins and needles. To everyone that is in the path of this storm please be safe!! Sending out prayers for you and your families!!!!!!!!

I think it is inevitable that we get something from it.
It is my Dad's birthday and his middle name is Earle
My older brother is taking him out to lunch in Woods Hole and he is a Junior..middle name Earle also.
Maye I should send them out of town for their lunch and we would be safe......LOL

My prayers are with everyone in the path of this storm. I am praying Earl makes a quick easterly turn before it gets to close.

Either way I'm prepared and as long as there are no thunder storms (Quigley and Samantha do not do well with thunder storms) I will be ok.

We posted a 'detour' sign right south of Cape Cod and hope Earl sees it and respects it...

Seriously, we hope all goes well for you and us.

Minnie is afraid of thunderstorms too and I always give her some childrens benadryl when I know a storm is coming. That helps her a lot to relax...

I noticed that despite the hot air and sunny skies, the winds were kicking up here in Providence.

I guess I will have to hunker down! The

will be crated tomorrow JUST IN CASE... Playpen tent it is. Poor Barney and Daisy will be stuck with Teddy and locked in with him.

The thought of losing electricity and being stranded from YT really worries me!!

Luckyone · 09-02-2010, 02:07 PM

it's turned a bit North. We're going to get Tropical Storm force winds etc but should be fine here. The Outer Banks looks like they're going to get slammed.

roseslevi · 09-02-2010, 02:23 PM

Ok so I am on Cape Cod, so I am in definite jeopardy! I remember hurricane Bob 19 years ago, I had just gotten married two weeks before...no water or power for three weeks and about $10000.00 worth of damage to my home. No one injured though so that was a great thing. So cross your fingers for us that it goes east and stays away from Falmouth. Thanks for starting this thread...it will give me something to do besides worry.

Hey my friend if you need anything....call me. Just saw your post!

shirlblack · 09-02-2010, 03:46 PM

The way it looks now it's going to hit Cape Hatteras of the Outer Banks (NC) and Cape Cod the hardest. Please everyone stay safe or high tail it out of there. Hopefully it will weaken before it hits the Cape.

yorkieusa · 09-02-2010, 04:24 PM

Stay safe everyone. I hate to see anyone have to go through those things.

Zucchini juice is good for worry. Just add a little vodka and you will be fine.

Seriously~everyone stay safe. I've been watching on the news and it's a big storm.
