To all DF'ers in the path of this, be safe, and we hope you've got your emergency batteries, water, food and toilet paper...and a cooler with ice just in case.

If you don't have to be out in the storm, stay home and play dogfight. Keep safe everybody

BTW my wife is a Maritimer from Newfoundland Canada, dis is jus a bit win' an rain by's . Just enough to give ya da sniffles I say eh?

To all you east coast boys. Godspeed. Batton down the hatches and hold on. Wishing you all the best and hoping your storm passes without to much destruction. Mother Nature like all women can get pms, and when she does look out. Lol. We just had a 7.7 shaker in my neck of the woods. Fortunately it was far enough out to sea that all we felt was the ground kinda vibrate and made the light fixtures dance about. Had every dog in the city barking. Hope you all have food in the cupboard and beer in the fridge.

Wow,

I hope this Frankenstorm thing doesn't let you down. I can't even imagine how painfull it is, because here in Brasil we have no hurricanes, no earthquakes, only some river inundations and water-floods...
It's hot as hell here, by the way. Never saw an october end like this hot.
And I see that this Desert Rose phenomenon is not only my concern, huh? Looks like Jimboslice is having some nightmares too... I will be honest: I don't mind seeing B strachan, Dent, Vampire, any other top guns on my screen - I can handle being chased by them; the only ghost I fear is this Desert Rose - I have some sort of "psychological block" cause by him/her. This thing is going to become some sort of "urban legend"... Thanks Sputnik, for telling her that I told you to send him some bullets... hahahaha
Karma + for you, kid!
Lets go back to vacations. I have some fish to bait, and need to swim drinking a dozen "capirinhas".
It's difficult to find some internet signal here, so, good luck to you against this hurricane! (or whatever it is).

Edit: Hey, guys, when Rose will became a MOM?

As of now hurricane sandy is a category 1 with max. Sustained winds of 90mph and gusts of up to. 115mph. Total rainfall expected ranges for 7-15 inches. Surge ranges from 13-15 feet.
Stay safe guys.
I'll keep you all updated on current storm and path cone info every hour.

Guess you're not working tonight after all.

legendofkane wrote: oh im working..go in at 11 pm..and marion is quite a ways from me,,they had a 2.9 magnitude earthquake monday

Yeah she called me about it. Her first ever earthquake and she never wants to feel another one had to tell her 2.9 is just a little tickle. Biggest I ever experienced was 3.9, i know I shouldn't but I love that feeling as the wave goes under and through you.

Yeah I think you're a couple hours drive NW, a bit further up in the mountains.

Some weekend huh, earthquakes, tsunamis, though thankfully that didn't come about as bad as was expected, and the mother of storms. Is this a sign of the wig-apop-a-lisp, did wig not kill enough noobs to sate the ravenous appetite of those dastardly Mayans.

Same information on sandy.
No changes
90mph winds
115 mph gusts
Pressure:,940 millibars
Forecast cone remains the same.
Surge is still expected to be 11-15 feet
Total rainfall is still expected to be around 7-10inches.
NEW YORK IS OUT OF THE CONE. BUT IT WILL STILL SEE HURRICANE FORCE WINDS.

Coop, you and your brothers in the service take care out there, always gonna be some fool needs to rescued, mostly from their own stupidity.
Hopefully with landfall it'll blow itself out in a few hours.
Anyone hear from Dogss?

u guys take care wish u could be here in Cali. In the 70 s

Chelsea Piers: completely underwater.

The Battery Gardens: gone.

DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass, NOT the Disney elephink): flooded

Just north of the East Village: flooding up to car door handles

Bridges: all closed

Holland Tunnel, Brooklyn Battery Tunnel: closed

Explosion at the Con-Ed plant on E. 14th St.

Here on the Hudson: water level higher than the standing record from 1821...already at 11am EST this morning.

Wifi flickering on and off.

Parts of this 1906 building creaking in ways they've never creaked before.

Cats acting...curious.

If it keeps up like this we might be in for a touch of nasty weather. Think we'll pass on the Hurricane Party upstairs and our plan to go down to the river for our nightly walk.

Bopes, dogss, check in as often as you can, please. Dent, Devil, likewise. Coop...hell wit us and our boo-boo power outage worries. YOU stay safe, bro.

My family and I are fine....We live out in the middle of no where and no worries of flooding on this hill....The center of the storm will be passing over top of us soon. Power is on and off....You guy's closer to and in the city take care....
