re: #90 lawhawk
OT (Hurricane blogging):
Mayor Bloomberg has ordered mandatory evacuations from A zones in NYC; those would be low-lying areas including Battery Park City in Manhattan, parts of Southern Brooklyn, Rockaway Queens, and Southern Staten Island. This is an unprecedented move by New York City’s emergency officials.
It’s coming into NY, maybe as a Cat 1, probably a tropical storm. That’s really not all that bad. You can stay in your house/condo/apt for that. Unless you have a chance of flooding which I don’t think.
