Everyone in the affected areas has heard this already, but it bears repeating; please, ensure your own safety and the safety of loved ones as you evacuate affected areas and head to higher ground. Current estimates have Long Island being hit with 5-11 ft storm surges of water, New Jersey looks like it may have worse than that, and Connecticut seems to be in the same boat as Long Island; if you live in the low lying areas make sure you're safe. LIPA (Long Island Power Authority) is saying that we may lose power for up to a week after the storm hits, so make sure you're set with batteries, flashlights, etc. I'm filling up my car with a full tank of gas, and I have bottled water and dry food to last a while. Do the same. For more info from LIPA, check here: http://www.lipower.org/stormcenter/It looks like New York, New Jersey and Connecticut are going to be hit with the brunt of this storm, follow up with local advice: Nassau County: http://www.nassaucountyny.gov/Suffolk County: http://scoem.suffolkcountyny.gov/NYC: http://www.nyc.gov/html/index.htmlNew York State: http://ny.gov/New Jersey: http://nj.gov/Connecticut: http://www.ct.gov/Take precautions and be safe!See you all on the flip side. |

Thank you for posting this info, Nick. This is a fantastic community.
But, may I ask, who needs food and water when you have ample batteries for your synthesizer...

School is closed everywhere. So I was going to go into work. Boss called, no work. Tomorrow is going to be a very boring day.

Cross your fingers; hopefully this hurricane, which looks to be barreling down directly towards my neck of the woods, doesn't cause much more damage then it already has. Already have a friend with a tree on (not in) their house.
Fun, fun, fun.

I just moved to the east end of Toronto (Canada, -north of new york) and the beach is literally at my doorstep. Hopefully this gets downgraded a bit soon.

Do any of my Nassau County friends know of any gas stations that still have gas? I'm set for about a week, but I have a coworker with a one year old who has a generator that's about to go out.
