weaponizer Posted August 27, 2011 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 People here are friggin nuts, the cars are out to the highway from the gas pumps at all the local stations, where the hell are you going? My friends wife pulled up and the string of F's coming out of her mouth was hilarious , she had just came back from shopping...The humidity here is thru the roof, i just used strapping tape to tie everything down, so i am done outside, now to try and find some old playboy mags and a flashlight in case the electric goes out... ::) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 From current tracking, it's looking like it'll hit my former town of Woodbridge, VA in the next few hours. There's a 100-foot oak out back, and a couple 70-footers - they'll probably take the house out, simply based on house orientation, wind direction/wind speed. The chimney for sure isn't gonna make it. <dontknow> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted August 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 It's supposed to start to rain heavy by 2am here in New Haven. We have had a few mini monsoons in the past few hours. Not sure how many more posts I have left.Remind me to setup you and Madhouse with the ability to reboot the server. ( I think I can set that up).
