I'm a little more inland (Pittsburgh) so we won't get hit with the worst of it. Rain and strong winds here but stay safe to all who are further East

Let the games begin. It's raining hard and VERY windy. The next 24-36 hours are going to be interesting. Forecasters are predicting up to 70mph gusts tonight. I am probably about 120 miles from where it's going to come ashore.

Rain is coming down at a 45* angle here in downtown Baltimore. I'm getting ready to get the heck out of Dodge and make the trek north to PA to huddle in the bunker.

We, who live in the Northeast can use this time (the storm) to start or complete one of our many projects that have been neglected. I am determined to finish my Seeburg 100b this week. I will send some pictures.

That's what there saying for us too, but so far it's been mostly just a cold rain. It started getting gusty over the past hour or so. The sustained winds and up to 70 mph gust are supposed to come later. We'll see, but so far not much is going on. |

Thanks for the well-wishes to the Northeast. I'm in Bordentown, NJ, about 45 min northeast of Philly, and 45 min inland from the shore. We are getting sustained medium force rain right now and steady wind around 30 mph. They're calling for the worst tonight and tomorrow. It's a state of emergency and a driving curfew was instituted after 1pm today. The shore, specifically the barrier islands are just getting pounded right now. The forecast is a min of 8 to 10 feet over flood stage, and with the storm surge, during high tide, and a full moon, they are saying in areas it could get up to a 40 foot surge.
I worked this morning, for Fedex Express, and we shut down at 1pm. We are officially closed tomorrow, I've been working for them for 23 years and they have Never closed for a storm. This is going to be a tough one.

Its starting to get dicey up here in North Jersey now, winds are picking up. I pray my garage does not get trashed by falling trees. There's a lot of valuables out there.
