Throw the Maine and New Hampshire seacoast regions in with that warning as well...

I hope this happens on election day, 2012...

I hear ya--if I were closeby I'd help you install the transfer switch. How much you wanna bet most of those idiots who paid premium bucks for generators after the 2008 ice storm don't have them anymore? Almost worth a trip down to the Home Depot or Lowe's to see the panic.

FWIW--I filled up all equipment, gas cans, and the Jeep last night. Ran snowblower and generator to make sure there are no problems with either one. Already cranked the fridge to max in case power goes out. Plenty of food/instant coffee, plenty of batteries, radio good to go.

Bring it.

NFL just announced the Vikings vs Eagles game is still on.
Mayor announcing an emergency situation in Philadelphia from 3 PM. Recommends taking mass transit to the game.
You talk about fun to watch with blizzard conditions.

Crazy roads to drive on the way home.

Thanks for the offer. I have the line run into the basement and I can install the switch pretty fast if I have to. I also got gas and kerosene and I have test run the generator and the snow blower.

When it came it this afternoon, it came in smartly!
