I kinda feel bad about having the most beautiful weather I've seen in a good while out right now. Worst I have is that it's chillier than usual, and has been a clear sky all day. It feels like winter is going to come early here, and that's just about it.

Although, to be fair, I do have family up in NY, so my prayers are with them and anyone else caught in that storm.

1 jogger has been seriously injured. Idiote. Jogging through the park. Well, there has been flooding, and the main thrust is coming. Next couple of hours. Jesus.
hurricane? flooding? 90+mph winds?

sounds like the perfect time for a jog!
Screw that. Get a bedsheet and a skateboard, and fly across at record speeds. After all, it's just a CAT1 storm. Doing this is way more fun in a CAT3.

Seems pretty ok here.

Though that'll probably change.

Yeah, it's great here actually. Granted this is in California.
I was talking about Virginia, you possibly sarcastic californian. :)

The mayor just gave his "Well, here It is, don't die too much guys" speech. I think he's turning off power as a preventative measure. I sure as fuck hope not. He also mentioned the collapsed crane, buildings nearby have been evacuated.
What I gathered is the area around the crane has been evacuated and power, steam and water shut off in case it falls and causes damage to the surrounding buildings.

This is mostly coming from this Reuters liveblog.

So what's the prospects if a fire got started somewhere in this? I know it's wet, but it's also really, really windy, and getting to it in time might be a challenge. Did they remember to warn people to disarm their incendiary burglar alarms and safely stow away anything flammable and such? Or is that not a concern?

On the plus side, think of all the stimulus spending!

The person supporting regenerating health, when asked why you can see when shot in the eye justified it as 'you put on an eyepatch'. When asked what happens when you are then shot in the other eye, he said that you put an eyepatch on that eye. When asked how you'd be able to see, he said that your first eye would have healed by then.

Brace yourself. We had a hurricane last christmas that cut power for 48 hours. I was siphoning power from laptop batteries into my smartphone so I could get some sort of connection to the world through the 3G.

 Power has been flickering all day, probably due to guys working on it. My internet connection is really throttled though. Who knows how long this will last with the hurricane winds less than 50 miles away.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.
