Have a guess where these hurricanes end up after they've done their deadly deeds? 🙄 Yes we usually get them as storms.

Mike won't even know there WAS a storm :drunken: 😆
I'd do the same thing!
Looks like the worst of the cold has passed for Jim, 20 and 30 degree temp drops "in a little while" are insane!

Thinking the same thing, Andy. 😕
And you THOUGHT you had a rainy summer...
Tim...bet Bill is also battening down the hatches (or whatever the saying is...)

Sounds like a plan!
Exactly one year ago we lost power and phones for a week, no cellular either 'cause the towers lost power. Although last year we had the snow to keep the adult beverage cold all week.
Hope it's just the media hyping this thing up and it misses you and me! :occasion5:

Paul and Tim and Mike (anyone else on PN?)...hunker down and stay safe, folks.
Watched CNN's excellent report this morning of the tall ship sinking and 2 people missing.
Hope they're found.

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

not bad here.......lots of wind but nothing crazy. I'm too far inland. The coast is getting hit hard. I had one banana leaf grow back after the plant got fried a couple weeks ago and it looks mint.

Mike, those cuts look too clean to have been made by wind. 😆 😆
Tim, hope you're not getting pounding rain on all those yuccas...
Glad everyone's all right! 😀

According to CNN:
Power cut to 6.5M people in 13 states
At least 50 homes burn to ground in NY
Floods close major airports in Northeast
It's terrible 🙁

I was too freaked out watching the winds snap them so I caved and cut them myself , Barb! Now I regret it.... 😡 IMaybe I should have let them keep growing. But in the end when we get a freeze sometime in november, they would have to be cut back anyway so....moot point.
I have no idea how I still have electricity when 2 million people in Philly/South Jersey area have none...??? 🙂

I think you were wise.
They'll keep growing, you saved them from getting torn out of the ground, roots and all. 😀
Glad you and your family are safe in that horrible mess.
After what I saw on TV, I wouldn't live on the coast--any coast--for all the beer at the brewery. 😐
And the left coast BC had 2 EQs... 😯 but no damage compared to Sandy's destruction.
