as america faces another natural battle, is anyone here in path with this thing, or has anyone experienced any other natural disasters?
I am in the path of this thing. I also live in Delaware and right now I am getting a lot of rain right now. Also the winds are picking up. One tree in my backyard has fallen. My house is kinda surrounded by trees and I am really scared that more will fall and land on my house. I'm also afraid of flooding because there is a ditch infront of my house and everytime it rains a lot, it overflows with water. I can't imagine being in North Carolina/Virginia area. They have to be getting hit really bad.
The evacuation plan is for the states of North Carolina and Virginia (both south of me) for the coastal dwellings. I live inland about an hour or so from the beaches in Delaware. I won't get washed away by a wave or such but flooding is what will probably happen here. We have all our stuff either in the house or tied up with cords on the back porch. Eh, that probably didn't make much sense. [edit] Not raining here in Newark yet ECP, so I suppose it's on the way.
well i feel sorry for ya's, we here in the uk get it easy, no natural disasters cept flooding here =/ but when its starting, please tell me, i havnt heard anything about any damage yet
Yeah I hope everything goes okay for everyone. In massachusetts we never get hit to hard. I heard its gonna go inland and hit Pennsylvannia and New York.
LOL. I'm not sure. I just went outside and it's starting to rain pretty bad and it's very windy, also quite fun. I think the main hurricane is suppose to get here tonight.
It was supposed to turn west of my town so wed only be getting hit by light rain, but it unexpectedly turned and now its heading right towards us, and I live right next to a river!
Aw man, I feel bad for you. I went outside and basically got smacked in the face with the wind and rain. It's wild out there lol. Amazingly, no other trees have fallen down yet, but I'm sure they will. :wth:
The hurricane will head up north, weakening but bringing bad weather to Eastern Canada & States... Good luck to you all who are hit by this... I just hope nobody will get hurt, and that there will be no damage to your houses...
The young trees outback are being swatted around outside, the worse rain I've seen yet is now falling, bad winds as well.
I have never experienced any sort of natural disaster where I live. And all of those hurricane names amuse me. Why those names? *ponders*
They choose names from each letter, each year, and the first hurricanne name begins with A, the second with B, something like this.
The lights keep flickering on and off here. The power hasn't gone out yet but I'm sure it will. Another tree fell in my backyard, just missing my house. I'm scared. :wth:
Do you have a basement? If yes, you should sleep there... Always listen to the radio for the latest news. And don't forget to post us updates about the situation. I guess you're doing at least half of this right now .
I tought almost anyone in your area had a basement or some kind of hideout in case such things happen... But I wasn't right . Is it calmer now? I checked the weather for Newark and winds seems to be down there...
