    Thank y'all for the concern - much appreciated. At this moment nothing (and I mean NOTHING) is happening. I just got off the phone with my brother in Connecticut and this may sound strange; we were raised in RI and have been through our share of storms (on and off the water). Both of us said the same thing. This one's not raising the hair on the back of my neck. Maybe we're both wrong, hope not. I'm sure there will be plenty of wind and rain, but I think we'll be fine.

    I hope you all will be safe! It's sounds like it could do quite a bit of damage. All flights from Denmark to New York have been cancelled.

    You're right Maggie - been thru a lot worse storms growing up in RI. What concerns me about this one, is the length of time it will be hanging around. It rained off and on all day yesterday, then settled in for continuous rain late yesterday afternoon. The whole state of DE is basically shut down at this point. Oh joy - no school for grandson and son and DIL's businesses are closed. It's gonna be a loooooong day and most likely tomorrow too. At least I hope the power stays on, but I'm not betting on that one, since it has already flickered off and then back on a couple of times this a.m.
