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.


Did you come out okay?

Oh, yeah. But I got a new wading pool in my basement. d8-)

All is well, thanks. Everything is drying out pretty well.

Ed...FYI....Irene is considered to be one of the top ten hurricanes in
terms of damage to the US...and likely to move up that scale as the
damage assessments come in.

Did you hear that the Republicans do not want to spend any new money
helping Irene's victums but want existing programs cut to pay for any
hurricane damage?

Yeah, I heard them. I think they'll back away from that posture.
