3. If this thing goes up the Chesapeake Bay

like Isabel did, it could cause a lot of damage and storm surge but it is supposed to move quickly so a lot of flooding, probably not. I've got bottled water and batteries. Hoping to take my car in for maintainence tomorrow.

8. Stay safe

I'm more worried about Ike and Miami.

9. I hope it passes us right on by

4. It should pass to the East of me.

If it hits the NC/SC border and moves up it will.

Any swing to the West puts it over me. I'm about

60 miles inland.

5. Smaller scale map here.

Projected to reach The Maritimes on Sunday as an extratropical storm.

6. Bring it on!

On the other hand, forget I said that!

Hopefully the DC/NOVA area just gets some much needed rain.
