    after the windstorm last june which subsequently dumped our 40ft+ tree onto the roof of our house, mr. dream and i are definitely more jittery than usual about ANY storms....so this is just :shock: .

    be safe all and hope for the best!
    *fingers crossed*

    ok, my mother and her husband, 5 years ago they retired and are travelling around the country in an RV, they got here a few days ago for their annual visit. The campground is evacuating, so they are headed towards Gettysburg, PA.

    More trees down in NC at my moms. Ground is so wet it can't hold them and they are beeing completely uprooted.

    Oh wow. Where in CT is she?

    This is going to be the first hurricane to hit CT since Bob in 1991.
