We’re on the road and have passed two cara
vans
of emergency response teams. We saw generators being moved as well as repair crews. This was on I85 going toward Atlanta. I imagine they’re heasing into the storm.

It may be true but who wants to credit Snopes?

It's not as though I have anything else in the world to do but chase down politically acceptable source references on this thread. I was trying to be helpful in responding to a question. I used Snopes because the search engine indicated it appeared to answer the question. Perhaps you have time answer the question in a more appropriate manner.

I probably wouldn’t notice if I lost power, I live on a boat that runs mostly on DC

Thanks ...she did call me an hour or so ago and said she and her bf are going to their roommates’ family’s house further inland for the weekend ...seems they all woke up and decided to do something about it! (or they got an offer from the family).

Thank goodness ...now all they have to do is get out on the highways and get there ...but they’re going by bus.

:)

It may be true but who wants to credit Snopes? I’m sure other sources than Snopes could verify that fact.

I'm pretty sure I have seen videos of the Guard at the Tomb during the hurricane. Maybe search at YouTube?

I know some in that area are powerful pray warriors...I’m sure that helped to pull in the dry air.

Totally agree with you about Bloomberg. He’s a tiny little nanny who not only has the worst nasal voice in the world, he mispronounces words like crazy (”pitcher” for “picture,” “anyways” for “anyway”). Maybe that’s how they speak where he originally came from. Thoroughly unbearable. Yes, Christie does give much better news conferences. Guiliani, in my humble opinion, gave the best.

Ugh. I would not trade it right now, for what my LI is bout to experience, but. . .

Oh, there’s his droning, silly voice, now, on TWC. Doesn’t he know that it was just the AF wanting to get back to base to secure their aircraft and he can go off & eat ice cream in DC & we won’t mind?

That sounds about right to me. They will most likely be needed somewhere.

And you have volunteered to criticize my effort to be helpful, rather than offering to assist in answering a question. You also found time to compliment little Michael Bloomberg. It seems we have very different priorities. Have a nice evening.

MLK was not Jesse Jackson or an Al Sharpton. He was not a perfect man, but he gave his life to a good cause and preached nonviolence. His niece who marched with him, is a conservative and does not agree with the race baiters of today.

Totally agree with you. The comment was uncalled for.

Interesting webcam.

Doesn’t look like a fun place to be in that type of weather.

According to weather.com, winds are gusting from 33 - 40 mph - and projected to go higher.

For aircraft, the time to get out of the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast is RIGHT NOW.

It’s gonna be a LONG night for me. My largest customer is sending me 30 East Coast RON aircraft by morning, and I have to find a place to put them all.
