I'm in Hampton Roads, Virginia and things haven't gotten bad here yet. I'm also hoping for no power outages as well. I have the day off and I'll be glued to NFL redzone.

but so far, no flooding, no damage, not alot of anything so far actually...just a sustained light rain..

power BEST stay on, aint tryna miss these games!!

I'm so pissed off this storm delayed the Louis C.K show I was supposed to go to tonight to March 2nd. 

I'm tight because after living in NYC for 23 years, I know nothing is going to happen. Nothing ever happens. They always stir up panic for no reason.

They have to be overly cautious though. If the storm does end up being bad then they will get all the blame for not being serious about it.

Especially after Katrina, they're not taking any chances with this one

I'm right across from Philly, I really hope it loses some steam on the way over here... Cause that pic doesn't look good :x

 

[pr0phecy718]

[shogun]

Hopefully my school decides by tonight if it will be open or closed tomorrow. I have an 8 am class and have to leave my house around 630. I'm trying to finish up my paper right now for the presentation I have tomorrow :x.

 

[pr0phecy718]

Bloomberg just said that all nyc public schools will be closed tomorrow...so all colleges should follow as well

 

[af1 1982]

A lot of major universities in Philly are also closed tomorrow (Nova, SJU)

 

[david bowman]

Bloomberg trying to impress them Spanish ladies lol

 

[nazdrowie]

just witnessed some lady buy 4 loaves of bread and 5 gallons of milk at the local food dispensary.

was like wow.

 

[david bowman]

Why buy that much milk? If power goes down it all goes bad.

Yeah... Not a good look. I'm hoping we can adjust our year-end forecast to take the projected rev from this out since my bonus package is heavily based on hitting a certain number of $.
