De

my oldest daughter and her friend who is her next door neighbor and their two daughters who are sophomores in college took off this morning on a trip to the Pocono Mountains to spend time at some lodge a few days and on way back they want to go into Zoo York for some reason..

So they are driving into the storm you will be enjoying....

WE told her it wasn't a good idea, we can understand wanting to have a few day retreat and fun BUT that was the wrong direction.

Hopefully it will okay but we here are expecting heavy snow squalls ourselves in less than an hour.. I am sure it will be heavier in your vicinity...

Kids and common sense do not seem to go hand in hand....

There's nothing like waking up at 4:30 to heavy rain and 18 mph wind. 18 mph might not sound like much, but if they say 18 it'll probably be 30 where I am. That means it's time to get up and (1) take a shower, (2) fill the bathtub, (3) do laundry, (4) charge batteries, phones and book-lamps, (5) unplug sensitive appliances, and (6) do anything else that requires electricity.

I'd say there's a fifty / fifty chance of a power outage in the next 24 hours.

One thing that's kind of neat is that because my laptop and our router/hot spot both run off batteries, I may be able to stay on-line for a little while even if the power goes out. For me to be knocked abruptly off-line, the storm would have to take out the cell tower too, and that's much less likely.
