Is anyone starting to plan evacuation out there? The latest models show
the eye going right over my garage. g I'm only 6 miles from salt
water, but I'm at 115 feet of altitude, so I'm going to ride it out. The
storm surge *could* wind up re-shaping the barrier islands of NJ, like
one did just under a century ago.

It doesn't look good.

No, I'm about 1000 feet from the bay and maybe 10 or 15 feet
elevation...... Some of my fellow kiteboarders are planning on going out
when the wind is "only" 40 or 50.


Aack. Youze guys are always doing crazy stuff like that. When I was 21, we
used to wait for the nor'easters to go surfing at Wildwood. It turned
Wildwood into something like the North Shore at Oahu.

Surfing in November is a beach, though. I gave that stuff up about 100
years ago.

Well, I'm not going out, about 35 mph is tops for me. I have to try the
paddleboard in the surf sometime, though. My area is now under a mandatory
evacuation order starting tomorrow morning.

THIS SURGE WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY LARGE...DESTRUCTIVE...AND LIFE
THREATENING WAVES.Somebody will be catching some waves..
