Nasty conditions from Carolinas to Maine. Some areas could have high tide problems along with strong winds. Power outages likely. Have fun. Not as bad as the infamous Ash Wednesday storm over 50 years ago. Glad I did my food shopping on Monday and ice on Tuesday. Have my flashlight, must remember to pull out my box of candles and put a gallon of water in the freezer to keep the refrigerator part cold in case of electric. Glad it won’t be seriously cold. One year electric went out 2f degrees. Eighteen pipe breaks on two outside walls. Keep your water dripping, or drain the system if long outage and very cold.

I don’t mind storms. They are good practice to make sure I’ve thought of everything possible for a survival situation. I think of them as a challenge.
