"Frankenstorm" coming up

No offence Roy, but somehow I don't think the people that's effected of it or we who are worried about their safety right now, cares about those theories.
I read and looked too much about this storm on the news yesterday so for the first time in over 15 years I actually woke up having a nightmare I could remember.
If a nightmare scared me then I can imagine what you are going through.
Stay safe please:)
 
Talked to Secret about 3 hours ago. She is out driving in this (NY) for her job. Praying for the safety of you all in harm's way:)

Keep us updated when/if you can-thinking of you!!

Want to thank everyone who is not on the east coast for your concerns. I've lived in New England my whole life and have never seen anything like this. This is of epic proportion. I'm in NH/MASS and the heavy winds have started. Many friends are being evacuated due to the tides. Power is off and on. So we still await the worst......

To Just Play...hopefully your hubby will be home before the real stuff happens. When will he be home?

To be honest? Right now, although the wind and rain is picking up now, it was windy and rainy, yes...but I'm a brit...so it's second nature to me....

....but I guess later will test me metle(sp? please:rolleyes:)

How is everyone doing so far?

Keep safe, Kotsy. It's a HUGE hurricane, meaning that it is spread out hundreds of miles. Wall Street was closed today...so that is saying a lot.
 
Are my eyes playing tricks on me or did Kotsy just turn purple:p Congrats!



NYSE closed tomorrow-I believe only the 2nd time since 1888 that it has been closed 2 days in a row:eek:
 
Pubs in NYC closing ...a bad sign

News is saying land fall within the hour is most likely dead center in atlantic city......how ironic......Most of the streets off the boardwalk are already flooded and a 6pm to 6am curfew has been issued. High tide in NY harbor is 8pm with an 11 to 12ft storm surge expected and flooding entering the downtown subway lines.........a nightmare in the making. THIS IS A BAD STORM. Stay safe folks.....JJ

You are right jjjudge. I see you are in the bar biz too. You know it's bad when the bars close! Always counting on the lost-depressed-revelers for last minute purchases.

Thanks for the update!
 
Our members who are in the hurricane's path probably can't see this thread right now - but if you do, the entire membership is rootin' for you. Stay safe. Batten the hatches and keep your head down.
 
waters rising early

For anybody thats taken the ferries to the statue of liberty or ellis island from the sea wall at battery park, the water has now come over the wall at that point 2 hrs. ahead of the high tide. Also a constuction crane atop a 96 story apartment tower has snapped and is hanging 96 stories over west 57th st at 5th ave swinging. It's pointing straight down like a dart. All this and the brunt of the storm is in atlantic city. Can' t see how the crane stays up as the winds increase......not good people...JJ

I am watching a report from Battery Park...10 inches already.

I have not seen the report about the crane, yet...yowzer.
 
This is surely a mess. The 911 center that I did a field study said a 4 story apartment building collapsed. Where the crane is they have barracaded that area off. Electric system shut off power to keep salt out of the circuits. Praying for all those in the path.

Hi secrect. If you Google "57th st crane collapse" you'll see some spectacular late afternoon pictures. I see you're from Highland......west village? JJ
 
a shark in nj?

a shark in nj..webp


please stay safe everyone.
 
i don,t know if the photo is real or not.

but i would,nt believe anything snoops says.

and i did find out it could happen so i,ll leave the rest up to you. believe it or not.
 
Here's an update from Western Mass, where I live.

We don't have to worry about flooding. I was really worried about the high winds, they stayed at 30mph from yesterday afternoon to yesterday night. Winds gusts were up to about 50mph or so. Our power went out twice for about 1 minute each time. I haven't been out around our town yet, so I don't know if there's any limbs down. They say we still can have high winds, thankfully it seems ok outside right now. We could still lose power. There was also a low tornado warning in Eastern Mass (where Boston is) last night and today. I haven't heard anything about it this morning yet, they were rating it at a 2 out of 10, so it was a really low warning. It's from the warm air, the temp is about 60 degrees here.

Now MOST IMPORTANT....I hope everyone that got hit bad NY, NJ, WV, CT, PA, I can't even name them all, there are so many states who got hit bad. I hope you are safe and didn't have much damage. Update us as soon as possible.

safe and sound in New Hampshire. Power back on. mostly trees down. NY got hit real bad. Flooding and fires

Glad you are safe Kotsy-guessing that 12 pack served you well:D


Wanted to add that I have not heard from Secret yet. Don't know if they are close enough to the city to have been affected by the power outage-but thought she would at least get my text.

Fingers crossed!
 
chayton said:
Glad to see that people are checking in. :)

On the news here they were talking about maybe some blizzard warnings a little further inland or in the wake of the storm as well - hope that doesn't include the places without power.

It was surreal to see the NY skyline all dark, wasn't it?
Click to expand...



Yea it was surreal! I read that the flooding has driven the rats even further out of their lairs too.:eek:

So many things to deal with-It's sad to see all the destruction.
 
Humans down there too

chayton said:
I was thinking that especially in NY City there are all those layers of tunnels underground...hopefully the water doesn't weaken the structure that supports all of that. But I never gave a thought to the rats. :eek:

I wouldn't miss the rats, but I was thinking about all of those homeless persons who live in the far reaches of the tunnels. Did any of them evacuate?

That's a good point-if they didn't evacuate, how long would it be before anyone even knew they were unaccounted for? That thought does not bring good images to mind.
 
I live about 3 hours from NYC. Has anyone heard from LHofsdal? She lives about an hour north of me. How about rockycatt (he's in Boston) or BingoT (he's in Conn.) or Jasminebed?
We are still under a high wind gust warning until 5 pm (they've lowered it from 50-85 mph to 30-50 mph thank God!!!), but it's started to rain again :( We lost power for about an hour (lucky!), but they are saying until the storm moves completely out of the area there is still possibility of power outages.

They've lifted all of the state of emergencies for our surrounding counties about 9 this morning. All schools remained closed today because of the wind warnings. Watching the news, all the damage in the city and NJ...so sad! My family vacationed in Wildwood, NJ for the last 7 years and then we'd make the short trek to AC for some adult "fun"time. The last 2-3 years has been sad seeing the devasation from Lee and Irene and past storm...I don't know how they will recoup from this?

Well, I better close as my internet has been sporadic all day. Keep safe everyone! My prayers are with those who are still in affected areas!

We are all good around here.
We never lost power but the wind was crazy.
The coast here in Ct got hit hard.
The highways here were closed from yesterday at 2 til noon today.
And us great people were the only one's that could use the roads to go to work lol.

Just walked through nyc

Hi all. JJ from nyc here. Damn.... Born and raised in this city and I've seen blackouts, riots, terror attacks, but I've never imagined the wrath of nature could do what was done to a concrete megatropolis. A note to Harry99 I believe Secrect is in the west village section of the city and is without power or internet service. I'm on the east side and was lucky. A section in Queens on the beach lost 80-100 homes on fire at once last night. FDNY and all first responders are some of the most selfless people I have ever seen. These guys fought this firestorm for the most part in chest high water........ A lot of people in coastal areas still missing so continued prayers will help..... JJ

Ahhh JJ so great to hear from you! Just trying to picture things through your eyes. Can only imagine seeing things firsthand!

Wonderful to hear from you-stay safe-and keep us posted:) Thanks for the detailed info!

I am very worried about Secret and those we haven't heard from yet.

Thanks-Great to hear you guys are good for now Just Play! Still waiting to hear from Secret this morning (about 60 miles out of NY city).

Good thoughts for you all today:)

I'm here, Beth! Instead of having a nerve wracking day driving, I had a whold days worth of sleep! The Line Haul truck from MA, could not make it ( he leaves about midnight every day) so this wasn't possible.

I am glad we are all ok....although I have not read every post carefully, as I am still woozy from sleep...;)

I will read now. :cool:

JJ, Man have you city guys seen it all! Did we ever expect flooding like that in NYC?...and a crane?...Ok, Crane accidents in NYC is not a rarity, so I have read. Plus, the most tragic occurence since Pearl Harbour...

You city guys are made of tough stuff and strong. Glad to see you are ok, too, JJ:)
 
Hey secrect, glad you're ok and got some sleep. There's and an old time section in the west village called highland from many years ago and long time new yorkers still refer to it as that. Kind of like I was born and raised in "hells kitchen" and I can't ever see myself calling it "clinton". Anyway glad you're ok. So much of the infarstructure of downtown is underwater it's unreal. The world trade site is under 13 feet of water in the path and subway stations. That site just can't catch a break......They say that only 1 tunnel in and out of the city is funtional. 7 to 10 days before subway system is fully up and running......I'll believe that when it happens..... 36 people died in the five broughs......what a shame.......JJ
 
Glad you checked in secret. NYC is devastated. The crane is unbelievable to watch.

wonder what they will do.

watch it here. it's incredible
