Gibsonm Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 No don't know anything more, but it indicates a second problem to face with Hurricane Sandy hitting the East coast. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanPatrick Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Sandy has been a little disappointing for this hurricane veteran. The way they hyped it in the news around here you would've thought it was the storm of the century. "Frankenstorm" they called it.So far...a steady drizzle and the odd 25 mph gust. Look out![superstition]Knocks on wood.[/superstition] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanPatrick Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Update: A tsunami triggered by a 7.7 magnitude earthquake thousands of miles away in Canada has hit the island chain of Hawaii, without causing major damage. Good news...for once! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanPatrick Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Just spoke with my father who is in northern Virginia, near where Sandy is making landfall right now. He said it's not so bad where he's at, but he's sure that some areas near the water are under a couple feet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanPatrick Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 At least 15 people are reported dead across several US states.They include: ...two parents killed by a falling tree when they got out of their car; their children, 11 and 14, who remained inside, survivedAt least six million homes and businesses are without power. In all, about 50 million people could be affected by the storm, with up to a million ordered to evacuate their homes.New York/Jersey are so vulnerable to such an event. Sad.Sandy, now downgraded from a hurricane but described as a "super-storm", is churning north and heading for Canada.Stay safe, neighbors! :calim: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
