[Charlie]

Looking at the positive perspectives from this, its given people who'd normally would be unprepared about things like happening a serious look at being prepared for natural disasters. Always having some sort of contingency plan is never a bad thing.

You mean next week right? So far they're saying Katia is going to stay out at sea, but if the forecast has changed I wasn't aware.

Yikes...plus we're getting all this rain from Lee too

 

[M3J]

Apparently so are we.

I meant what Gary said, the hurricane will stay out at the sea, so we're safe enough. The rain is basically all we need to worry about if I recall. I thought it was this week though, tomorrow or this Friday. X_x

Yeah, they're saying that the biggest problem Katia will cause is a strong riptide on the coasts...I can live with that

Wow, I've experienced the Earthquake. An since the summer was almost ending, I wanted to have some experience, so I drove from Connecticut and drove to the shores of New Jersey.

The experience was sanely awesome. I want it to happen again. But unfortunately, I'm moving to California in a week from now. No new dangers at that area...

Only stupid small gentle earthquakes.
