Re: Hurricane Sandy

I'm finishing up prepping tomorrow. I'm in the Philly burbs just north of Delaware and it looks like we may very well get an aers kicking. Gonna finish prepping the gutters tomorrow & make sure my sump pump is ready to roll. If the gutters are good, typically I don't need the sump. Found the front downspout TOTALLY clogged today. That's good & bad. Good I found it! That means less chance of basement water. Bad that it was clogged. Anyway, charging all the chargeable devices, going to fill the tub with water for flushing (I have a well, and had no power for 5 days last year with Irene) and bring the trash cans in. Either we get clobbered, or it ends up being phooey.

I thought Irene would be phooey & I got my aers handed to me. I'm prepping and hoping for the best.....

I hear ya on that one. Im in the navy and we went down to the commissary to stock up on stuff. But Ive been told if the navy says mandatory evac then i will go lol. Ive never been in a hurricane before. I'm from AR and ive been through all kinds of tornadoes. We live on the 3rd floor here in a 2bed apartment so I didnt know if it would really have any effect on us, other than power outages. Of course though I dont want my brand new Scion TC to get lots of water underneath it lol.
