icymaiden's Journal, 25 August 2011

Looks like Hurricane Irene is gonna hit us hard here. I'm north of where it will make landfall, but we will be getting a foot of rain, 5 feet of storm surge and 90 mile an hour winds come Saturday. Last bad hurricane here we went without power for 6 days. Tomorrow is the last day to get everything we need to get done. I still have to go to work and cash my paycheck, but we've got our water, propane, ice, coleman stove, canned food and all and I waited in line for it but got gas too.
Praying it's not too bad with damage to my house. This has been a very terrible two weeks. The murder of a friend, an earthquake and now a hurricane. I'm starting to wonder if it's really the end of the world.

Good job preparing for it. Hunker down and be safe.

Some times events like these do seem to hit us all at once. But it sounds like you're doing all the preparations you can. Be sure to charge all your phones. Clear your memory card for your digital camera and be sure it's charged as well. Resist the impulse to go outside if/when the calm of the eye of the hurricane is going by. As Bcbloyd stated, just "hunker down and be safe."
