Sam,

I just got back from Corvettes @ Carlisle. Turn-out was low and lots of vacant room for Corvette parking. I heard from several vendors I deal with that attendance was low also.

I'm in Allentown now, seems we are in for it. We are not that far away from each other, so I would brace for it. So much for asking to go for a ride in your Z sometime soon..... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Wonder if BBBenny is going to get hit up on the mountain? Donnie in NE Philadelphia will probably get it worse than us here in Souderton. The Schutzbank family in NY may get it worse than all of us here in Pa.

I am in Newport News, Virginia

.... and it looks like Sat. Noon until Sunday noon will be the worst of it for us.

...So far so good.... Hope Irene takes a RIGhT TURN.

I look on the weather channel at the &quot;Water Vapor Map&quot;... and it shows where the heat and water are coming from... kinda gives you a bigger picture of what is happening...
Here is the link.... check it out...

...... click here... ( if the map is NOT moving... click on &quot;Weather in Motion&quot; at the bottom left )

My sister-in-law lives on a Navel base somewhere in VA....She got a call a few hours ago that they are have an emergency evacuation there. She has been here for 3 weeks now with her 2 kids...and was planning on going home tomorrow. She's stuck her for a few more days from the sounds of it from what base is telling her.

Just watched the news. Apparently, the storm is on a bee-line to NYC. Hope it changes path.

Well, this week was my first vacation days all year and I was at the beach in Beach Haven NJ. We got the earthquake which shook our house a good 4-6&quot; side to side so that was interesting. But the hurricane came in faster than they expected so we left yesterday afternoon since I still wanted to pull my boat out of the Delaware River which they are now predicting to come up 20-22 feet where I keep my boat. They always say that the flooding kills more people than the wind from a hurricane so don't take any risks with water covered roads and if you're in a low lying area in the northeast, head for higher ground. We've had some record amount of rain the past 2 weeks and the ground is already saturated so 8-12&quot; of rain has no place to go. Everyone stay safe!
