We all (Long Island) got messages from our electric company telling us to expect it to take 7-10 days for power to be restored...assuming of course that we will lose power. We are on the windy side of the storm, giving us hurricane winds for like 24-36 hours straight. That is pretty scary. We were told to evacuate in my area...MANDATORY, but we are staying. I can't stay in a shelter on a teenie cot for 2 days, no way. Most people are staying. Expecting the storm to hit hard by Monday morning and stay hard til late Tuesday morning. Right now we are gusting around 60mph. My stupid neighbor didn't even clear away his stuff...so I expect it will fly into my house...TYVM. (broken windows?) Now he is gone. @@ Idiot.

Good luck to you Tammy, and everyone else in its path. They said that even Lake Michigan is going to be affected by this! Crazy!! This has NEVER happened before....never. We are part of history here. Kind of amazing.

Sit tight and hang on.
