Hanna's Outer Bands Have Arrived In New Jersey....

Recommended Posts

I hear the rain pounding down now. It's going to be a crappy night. I hope anyone out in the bad weather takes care!

It's a Tropical Storm Warning here (I'm in Atlantic County). I usually love the bad weather, but this one seems like it is going to dump a ton of rain and some high winds to go along with it.

I didn't have much storm prep to do since I had my pool closed yesterday -- whew! I moved all of the patio furniture next to my house and put the cushions away so they won't get soaked. Other than that, I guess I'm good.

And my cat always takes off to hide at the first crack of thunder. What's up with that??? :P

My mother-in-law is in Myrtle Beach, SC. She's getting the brunt of this tropical storm.

I see a huge gap between the outer band over NJ and the main circulation over eastern GA, SC, and NC but that's just the precipitation...

I wish her well. She's probably an old pro at these storms, huh?

Oops, I was wrong. I have one eye on the TV and other on my laptop. And now I look stupid(er)!!!! :P

Don't bet on it. See the track forecast attached. Better call your airline. [:/]

I think I'm a freak... I love storms (not hurricanes, tornado's or the alike of course.) Rain, wind - it's all good. Oh, and lightening... :)

As long as no 1 gets hurt though.

Seriously, I don't know what it is about storms that I find so peaceful and calming.

Stay safe out there people!

Round 1 today only left us with 1.25" of rain. Round 2 started about a half hour ago here in northern Burlco & I expect another 2" or so. We'll see...



Lovely! It's really dark here in Hammonton and now it's just a drizzle. I think the worst has passed us by.

That's encouraging. I'm in New England. According to our weather forecasters, the brunt of the storm is supposed to hit around midnight and after. They said up to 50mph sustained winds with possible stronger gusts and possibly several inches of rain. I guess it all depends on where exactly you are in relation to the storm. I'm not complaining though. I could be on the Gulf Coast.B|

I had to fly through that TS 3 times yesterday. It sucked.

PHL to DCA to ALB ...delayed...delayed until TS reached PHL then ALB-PHL. Ugh.

Sucked. Weird thing was it was smooth IN the rain and once you exited the rain the turbulence got you.

The best alternative that I have found is to just throw the patio furniture into the pool. It will sit on the bottom and not blow around. Also the chlorine will clean up the pvc.

I'm assuming if she had her pool closed that it has been covered. Makes it a little more complicated to throw the patio furniture into it.:|

For my area, Hanna was nothing much. Certainly not what was forecasted. We had torrential rain, but wind was minimum.
