Come on IRENE!
How many of us are in Irenes path, and what are your plans as she bears down on us. Hope your svxi's are safe and sound. NYC may take a direct hit of strong Cat 1 or even a Cat 2 Hurricane. NYC has not had a direct hit from a hurricane since the late 1800's Talk about way overdue. Hope everyone stays safe, and has plenty of batteries.

I hate to say this but I hope it stays on more of an easterly track. You guys can handle the water better than we can here in upstate NY, the land of silty clay and no drainage.

Re: Come on IRENE!
Huskymaniac, I was dating a girl from Oxford, CT. She lived at 154 Christian St right near Oxford Airport, her name was Edee Eldridge I dated her from 1982-1986, thought we heading down the Isle, but things didnt pan out, she moved to New Hampshire to take a new job after graduating from Quinnipiac University. Anyway, that is freaky, we might have crossed paths back then, who knows. She had two brothers and two sisters, and her father worked at Avco Lycoming in Stratford, CT. I dont mind the rain, Im just fearing the strong winds, estimated to be 75-95 MPH possibly.

Re: Come on IRENE!
I don't have two pumps that run simultaneously but I installed a battery backup pump in case we lose power and I am not home while the water is gushing in. My primary pump is pretty hefty. We were pumping out something on the order of 400-450 gallons an hour back in April. The path into the sump hole looked like a waterfall. I managed to install a system that keeps the water off the floor but the thought of either the system failing or the pumps failing makes me nauseus. I am seriously thinking of moving to a different house.

We had 12 Generators at 3:00 last night and we had no generators when we opened this AM. We are getting 20 in for 5:00am tomorrow. Bet they are gone by 9:00am . I got a call about every hour today asking about pumps and generators .

Re: Come on IRENE!
I'm not sure if it will reach my house but I am concerned that on monday morning I will be flying into Philadelphia and I hope that the storm is long gone so I don't end up stranded in who knows where because a plane can't land in PHL.
I also have this huge walnut tree and a huge maple tree that worries me too

Re: Come on IRENE!
There is one positive with this storm, wherever it hits. All of the models have it moving very quickly by the time it reaches the Northeast.

Re: Come on IRENE!
Uhh, it seems as though there's a good chance she's interrupting my plans this weekend and forcing me to push certain things back a week... Maybe I should put comprehensive on the van since GC's book out insanely high compared to the real market value.
(for instance, my van books at $3500 in fair condition. I have a total of $900 into it at this point. ) |

C'mon back to town! I'll get you to the two yards with SVXi, and you can check out the butter sculpture at the Fair. Ooooo!
