Frankenstorm Sandy

[Novelafemme]

Ya'll just come to AZ where you'll be landlocked, hot and sweaty, and the worst that can happen when a storm hits is you might get some sand stuck in yer butt-crack.

Seriously though, please be safe and take good care.

Will have to check out my blades too and see if I need new heavy duty ones.

Check with yer dood on the law for when studs can go on. Here it's Nov 1st. Yes they give tickets if it's too soon.

Prediction is now for later - 8am Tuesday instead of 2am Tuesday, and every bit that it's pushed back later is good for me - but it's still tracking to make landfall just 20 miles from my house and then track directly through my town as a cat 1.

Things like this make me nervous:

"We're not trying to hype it," National Weather Service meteorologist Paul Kocin tells Bloomberg News. "What we're seeing in some of our models is a storm at an intensity that we have not seen in this part of the country in the past century."
