Thinking 'bout riding out the storm

[MrScorpio]

Hampton Roads hasn't ordered an evac yet.

Yesterday, I made reservations for a room in Richmond.

The storm track is taking it over that town.

Yep, I'm a fucking genius alright.

I road out Floyd back in '99, I'm thinking about doing it again.

Anybody else doing the same?

1. Don't

push your luck.

What is this? A death wish?

Just evac and be safe.

They finally gave up looking for the bodies of the people who insisted on staying on Mount St Helens you know.

They thot they'd 'ride it out'

2. Staying in the dorm rec room till it floods.

And it will. My freind whose parents are in Zambia (missionaries) and I are going to rent some videos and make popcorn till the power goes out. And it will. I have back up, TrueBlueDem offered her basement near by, a greatuncle in Chevy Chase and a family friend in Chestertown. Wheeee!

3. Aren't basements bad places to be in a flood?

Storm surge is the biggest danger. I guess if you are at least 30 miles away from the coast, you might be ok. But I would'nt risk it.
