I want to do some regular grocery shopping...but the panic-mongerers are probably out in droves today.

Yup.   You'd think bottled water was going out of style.

I'm just glad I'm on city water and natural gas.  If the lights go out, I'll still have my toilets and hot showers.
Only thing I really need to worry about is the fridge, and that fucker's usually empty anyway.

Was like Black Friday out there.  Lowes and Home Depot must be making a ton off of generators if what i saw at Costco is anything to go by.
PDH!

I look forward to video clips of Chris Christie screaming and swearing at people to stay indoors. :)

Actually, he's been getting flustered because some of the barrier peeps are ignoring his evacuation order.  You missed it last night. :D
Experience bij!

No, I'm sure there might be one occasion on which such might be true but not this.

Well, I won't be going into work tomorrow. MTA is shutting down and I ain't walking 40 blocks to work. :P

During big rainstorms like this do the subways just flood in New York?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Sometimes even with smaller storms but they've a lot of things in place like pumps and grates.

Hmm, Zone A of the city is now under mandatory evacuation.

Man, the wind has definitely picked up this morning, and the temps have dropped like a mother.

Storm surge is gonna be nasty all along the mid-Atlantic coast.
Taking care of my online banking, laundry and other "well, shit, there's no electricity" issues as well.  Got a few dry goods to eat, and filled up the gas tank.
