much damage from the storm, the beaches especially and people living on or near the water. They are expecting high tides during the hurricaine. Not good. Prayers for everyone! Suzanne

111382Thank you Suzanne; our DIL and grand-kitty are here in central VA with us now, as they live on a beach island in NC. Son is traveling home from Brazil on Sunday. She left the 3 story condo without boarding up the windows, so I'm worried about storm damage as she's just 2 blocks from the ocean.
Best of luck to you Northerners. When I lived in NYC as a child, we never evacuated although we were encouraged to do so, during frequent storms. We lived I block from the beach but the tide never brought the water (quite) to the house. I hope that the storm downgrades and does not gain strength. I cannot imagine NYC evacuating and the subways closing.
God bless you all.
Hugs,
Jacqueline

234500Good luck to you and everyone who has to deal with this horrible weather.
This sounds kinda petty, but be sure that your equipment is on a UPS or unplugged for the storm so that you don't get it zapped and lose it that way. That is advice for everyone here for every reason.

I have back up batteries attached to the machines but I also unplug them when I an finished doing my embroidery. Can't be too careful! Expensive machines! Suzanne
16302Looks like the prediction is that it will miss Georgia. Maybe we will get some rain from it. I'd be up for that. Praying that all are safe and unharmed.

11877They say that it could be worse than Agnes was for us. I just hope the power stays on and everyone stays safe. Both my brothers and families live about 20 minutes from Rehoboth so I am particularly worried for them.....Stay safe everyone and please take precautions.

20088May through November is a long time for a season, let alone hurricaine season. Having lived in Florida it's just part of living there. Irene is suppose to be a pretty strong one. I do pray you weather it well and get back to embroidery soon! Yes, prayers for all in her path!

23222Hope everyone gets as prepared as possible. I just sent text to my daughter to see what her situation is where she lives - Barbados - hurricanes usually go around them for some reason and they get the edge of wind and rain and that's it. Hopefully it is the same this time.
This is going to be a far reaching one as it is really expected to hit a fair ways in in Canada and not just on the coast.
You keep safe!!

Thank you. We were due. The last major one was Bob 20 years ago. We should be OK. Suzanne
211079I always dread the start of hurricane season. Being in N/W AL we only get rain and wind from the edges but I feel for those near the coasts. Memories of Camille in Biloxi, Andrew in FL and Katrina in New Orleans make everyone edgy. During Apr and May I felt like AL was about to be wiped off the map by tornadoes. It seems to me that our weather is getting more extreme each year. Very unsettling.
I was through Hackleburg, AL a few weeks ago and was amazed at the devastation. Very few landmarks left to even tell you where you are. It looked to me like there was more than one tornado go through Hackleburg. One through the town and another just south of the town. The damage path was very wide too.
Prepare for Irene and stay safe everyone.

Where in the State do you live? There are alot of Cute Members around here! I am in the Atlanta area and so is Katydid. Lillian is from Macon and is now just across the border in Al, jrob is up above us in the N. Ga mountains and there are still a few more in the state. We should all try to get together sometimes! Lillian has her hands full now but she does have family here also. Lillian and I grew up in Macon and even went to the same High School but she was just far enough ahead of me that we never met.
With the earthquakes and then the storm brewing, we could have a rough time in store for all of us. I am hoping there will not be much damage with either but you never know! Linda
4766Prayers going up for you and your family and for my family and other friends in RI.
