Something knocking out New York mass transit is nothing to laugh at. Stay safe everybody.

Did it get "knocked out" or did they just shut everything down and told people to stay home?

I woke up today thinking it was gonna be fallen trees, flooded roads, and rain, but it was calm and I looked out the window and nothing had fallen, I was like dam I got off from work for no reason.

Then switch on the TV gov has closed all highways by 11am, no schools, stores open, roads are deserted, its like we were under a nuclear bomb threat.

Anyways, stay safe everyone, basement is your best option to hide

Shutdown as a precaution.

I'm quite concerned. I live in a flood plain. Isabelle rocked this neighborhood about a decade ago. I'm very scared.

I've moved everything likely to blow away to somewhere that decreases the likelihood of flying debris. I'm a bit terrified about my new car sustaining heavy damage, as well as the Z.

I've got large trees to worry about. Power outage is almost a certainty here. It's spotty under lighter storm conditions.

I'm hoping for sustained power (or quick recovery) and no flooding.

I'm in the middle of Long Island and things here look like it's starting to pick up. Got the Z in the garage and as prepared as can be. I'm just hoping the power doesn't go out.

Yeah I hope everyone stays safe, again you'll all be in our prayers. Are there any people who refuse to evacuate like in New Orleans a few years back?

Most of the "refusals" were unable to leave. I imagine that would be much the same case with Sandy people.

Yeah I do remember that some people couldn't leave but also people that refused, wanted to tough it out.

Winds are kicking up. US markets closed for a second day tomorrow. First time the weather has forced more than a one day closure of the stock market since 1888 I believe.

Enjoyed my day off by sleeping in. Doesn't seem too bad here right now. Stay safe everyone! :tup
