The storm clouds made for real pretty skies over Jacksonville this weekend. Typical Florida weather.

We're back home this week and it's cold as balls! :shiver: (like below 50 even, heh)

I'm just east of Philly, so right on the north side of the eye. Should be fun. I have equipment that needs power to keep liquid helium liquid. If power goes out more than a day or two, I'm going to lose 100's of k's worth of precious helium. lol.

The rain continues, but the wind is picking up. and It's blowing from west to east, I would have thought it would blow from north to south given my location to the eye?

I've finally got some wind and there's a steady medium rain going on. There are some nearby neighborhoods that appear to have lost power (according to internet tracking thing). I'm doing okay. Now I'm more worried about all the helium leaving us.

With that much value, you don't have a backup generator?

We lost power for about a minute, though the lights flicker every so often. It gets real calm, then gusts hard, then calms again. Steady drizzle. Sandy's worst is still about three hours off, supposedly.

Work got cancelled today, and tomorrow too! :w00t:

Some places do. They're all scattered. Relatively small amounts all over the place. It's going to be a big expensive exhausting mess getting everything working again. Places without generators will get billed. Whether or not they ever pay, that's another matter. :giggle:

According to this dillybopper here, the eye will pass over or very near where I am. So, sometime between 5pm and 2am I'll give Sandy the old Borteye. :pibble:

lol, the leading edge of the middle is here now. No biggie, winds 40 to 60. I still have power and water and internetz. Awesome, may it continue. Hopefully the one that came here last year stress tested most of the weak infrastructure and it got fixed. Last year I lost power and water and internetz for quite a while.

PS - It is now a "post tropical cyclone".

Rain and wind here in Cleveland. Gusting to 70 on the lakeshore, to 60 inland. Nothing compared to what the east coast is dealing with.

Frigging CAT would not let me sleep. Kept meowling at the door wanting to go out. Told it to shut up. Yelled at it to SHUT UP. SWORE at it the STFU. Finally chased the damn thing and threw pillows at it, then let the idiot OUT into the raging squall, and do not ask me if I give a good god damn what happens to that stupid cat.
