Hurricane!!!
javeryh:
Man, the natural disasters just won't quit this week. So who else is a little freaked out by this storm headed up the east coast? I was supposed to be at the shore this weekend but everyone is evacuating so I guess that's out. So annoying!
:angry:

I don't care about the storm - I care about the potential of large trees crushing my house.
newmanfamilyvlogs:
We experienced hurricane Hugo back in 89, so that's the benchmark that every storm is compared to around here in SC. Looks like it'll miss us now though.
I'm a little worried for my sister in Wilmington though. They've got a newborn and live in one of those massive developments with no trees where all the houses look the same. Somehow I suspect those houses are not as storm worthy as older ones. At least it appears the storm did not get as strong as predicted.
crashwg:
I'm mostly concerned with loosing power for an extended period of time.
TopJimmyCooks:
Yeah, hopefully they get the power back on here in Wilmington sometime on Saturday. It's a foregone conclusion that it will go out overnight. Otherwise I'm going to be having potato chips for dinner. Wife and kids already split for inland safety.
Good news is I'm here at the house working on Switchcade final assembly instead of at work!
Cotmm: drop a PM if your sister needs any assistance. I'm a general contractor and have chainsaws, truck, etc. Any newer house around here is built to much more strenuous wind load code requirements than any older house, no worries there.
