Video was taken about an hour ago, no rain at that point, but the clouds were flying overhead. Since then the rain has started as a steady drizzle with some wind gusts that you can lean into pretty hard

It's not that. Just that the media has once again made this situation out to be more than it is for those of you that far up North. Just like with the quake last week.

I'm sure NC is getting some bad flooding and minor wind damage, but by the time the storm makes it further North I suspect it won't be much of an event. Hopefully everyone in NC, especially the OBX area, is OK.

I thinjk were going to see something prety bad up here, at least for our standards. With all the shutdowns including coney island hospital this could be for real up here esp since a good part of this area is low laying near the ocean nad bays

Yeh it can be really bad where tommy is, his house isnt far from the water on the southern shore of long island. I dont think its the media, but people are at least for the most part following the warnings to get safe.

I was just up on the roof cleaning gutters in the rain. It's stopped raining here for now. We are expecting 2-6" between today and tomorrow morning.

Stay safe Tom.

My sis and stepmom are in Wantagh.
Stepmom is working a 48hr shift at the hospital and sis is going to ride it out.

Take pictures of your property before it hits (insurance purposes)
