Evacuees check in?
How's it going? Is it pandemonium?

Grocery stores crazy? Are you safe and ready?

Check in please!

1. we are in PA
so not in an evacuation area, but we may have power outages. The supermarket was "snow storm crazy" today. But we are prepared with a generator, gas, food, water, batteries, a crank radio and light, and all phones charged. I can't think of anything we missed. If we don't get hit I'll simply be ready for winter early this year. Let's hope that's the case.

8. We're in Maine. I guess we're shopping for whatever groceries are left tomorrow afternoon. If
the storm strengthens, or shifts its track so that we catch the winds from the east side, we will head to my BIL's to stay. He's in the track too, but at least he has a house and not an unanchored trailer.
