This isn't looking too spodie-odie for the Carolinas. Spent all day trying to find a place for the Pipe Dream or a trailer to borrow. Nothing so far . . .

Looks like we’ll be pretty safe here in the Chesapeake. Probably get some wind and waves but y’all definitely need to hunker down in the Carolinas. Hopefully you’ll get the PD to safety. You definitely don’t need all that trouble again.

Yep, Florence looks pretty nasty. We're keeping a close eye on it. I got 4 generators and bought 130.00 worth of 93 non-ethanol for them. We rode out Isabel at 96 mph winds, that was scary! Our house is 101 years old, seen some bad ones come by. If its stronger than Isabel I'm going inland! Hope you all fair ok!

Prayers going up for all East Coast guys. NJ isn't 100% out of the woods either. Pipe, doesn't U-Haul have a trailer to rent?

Nothing but utility trailers and car dollies at our U-Hauls. Looking like I might not need it this week.



It'd be nice if the track would keep shifting north and northeast and out to sea instead of making landfall at all.

We are/were scheduled to start a week long family vacation, complete w/V20, this coming Saturday at Sunset Beach NC...the spaghetti tracks indicate that could be a problem...looks like it's gonna landfall about 60 miles up the coast the night before...that ain't far enough...
