Hurricane Earl

[coastie]

Earls track keeps shifting westward. Could turn into a good event for New England on Friday. Good thing to keep an eye on particularly if you are on the Cape/SE Mass and southern RI. Below link shows the path and future wind forecasts. Cape is currently 30-40% chance of tropical storm winds.

Is that Ma. compliant or is it on the "novelty" lighter list?

 

[FrugalFannie]

Thanks for the reminder. Good time to test out the generator this week before we really need it.

With the name of the hurricane being "Earl", why do I get the feeling that a trailer park is going to get destroyed?

Well if it comes close enough to MA, it could hit Auburn.

Can we organize a long range .22 competition?

36 grain vs 80mph crosswinds would be interesting

If it hits NYC as a Cat 4 it will be interesting...

Checking/pruning the trees around your property (especially near your house,powerlines,drive,outbuildings) is often overlooked by many until a storm brings them crashing down.
When wind storms hit tree co.s' command top dollar for emergency service and can be backlogged with jobs also your insurance may request multiple estimates for tree damage clean-up.
Preventive maintenace can avoid costly tree damage.

[ShadeWPI]

when do i pull out the 72 hr check list?

Today. Don't forget to check and fuel up the snow removal equipment. An oft skipped step this time of year...

 

[Finalygotabeltfed]

Just fired up the generator and chainsaw......now to figure out where to park my vehicles so an 80ft pine doesn't come down on them. Might have to ask my neighbor if I can park them on the road in his open bog area.

I've got a business trip I don't want to take to NC on Thursday. I'm supposed to come back on Friday. So far, Earl is a buddy of mine. Means I may be able to go to WP&R to get voted in after all!
