Stormy days...

So the Northeast is expecting a hurricane and to be rained out for the next two days with some high winds and possible flooding. We've been told to stay home, schools and offices are closed, there isn't a D battery or flashlight left anywhere in sight. Some roads are being blocked off, zones are being evacuated, the MTA, NJTransit trains and Light rail are closed and buses are parked. We both received calls from the emergency management systems from work noting closings for Monday and Tuesday but as of this moment we barely have gotten any rain. Its a bit windy but just enough to send the leaves twirling off the trees. Its certainly a huge turnaround from last weekends glorious weather when we took a trip to Storm King. I'm not so concerned about flooding but I am concerned about loosing power in the event of high winds or fallen trees. We are already bored and we've only been home for a few hours this morning, we technically can leave the house but its not that nice out. I'm a bit dissappointed because we also had plans and actually bought costumes for Halloween and now may end up being rained out. For now we'll be carving pumpkins and making s'mores in front of a fire to pass the time.
