Hurricane Sandy: advice from a hurricane person

My sister-in-law lives on a canal just off the Great South Bay. This mornings high tide saw water already spilling into her back yard.

So my advice to her was to sandbag the doors, grab the cats and evacuate.

The good news is that she took my advice.

The bad news is that she and her cats are staying at my house.

Your sister-in-law: “The bad news is that she and her cats are staying at my house.”

That’s funny, except I have a sister-in-law that lives on the Texas coast and doesn’t have squat in preps and she would come to my house, too, and she’s a wild eyed liberal - I’d rather put up with the cats than her liberal crap.

Where does your sis live? I’m in Deer Park. I moved my truck from a truck yard on the south side of Main Street Babylon (near the grt south bay) to a spot a few miles north. I was afraid of floods. However, now I worry a tree might hit it. DId you hear any estimates as to how high the water is expected to climb the south shore? I’ve heard nothing in this regard. Your sisters experience is worrysome.
