Raining and cold here in Raleigh. The Bureau is shutting down all offices from DC up to Boston. Main NY office is actually in the A zone for evac.

Shit be getting real, yo.

Well, schools canceled where I am (Greater Boston area) so I'm happy. Mostly because I have a Physics test today, so yay! All we have so far where I'm at is rain and wind, and that rain is like a drizzle.

Hopes he doesn't die

Dude, now that you've said it, you're bound to croak!

After all the other people who said it before have died first, of course.

They should record the stream and make a torrent for it.

Oh man the water puns are flying low today.

Yeah, that's the downside of going to App. Eight inches of snow? Campus is on the side of a mountain? TOUGH SHIT. Start hiking.

CLASS IS ONLY CANCELLED SCHOOL-WIDE IF AND ONLY IF THE ASU BUSES ARE UNABLE TO FUNCTION. THE BUSES ARE ALL DRIVEN BY RECKLESS STUDENTS AND REGULARLY DESTROY PROPERTY. THIS IS WHERE WRAL SHOULD BE FOCUSING THEIR DAMNED BLACK ICE REPORTS.

That Weather Channel is giving you insufficient information. Insufficient information is bad, you can't be sufficiently paranoid with insufficient information. Well, you can, but then you don't know if you're being overly paranoid or not.

State by state projected impacts

It's positively relaxing for certain people in certain states living on hills away from oceans, if you know what I mean. Not so much for anyone on the coast, or New York City, or, well, quite a lot of people, really.

I sincerely hope New York City has some frakking amazing 15 foot tall levees or lots of pumps or something, though. Wunderground needs sonar! Can't see storm surge!

It's pretty ominous man, it's not even raining, just all manner of flora going apeshit in the winds. I'm almost tempted to go up to the reservoir and see what
crazy crap is going on.
