Sandy looks to be a lot worse than Irene. We have plans to evacuate.
Go-bags packed, including dog food and bowls for the pups' water.
Bought 30 sandbags today- the Parks Dept. has a giant pile of sand for
anyone's use, as long as you fill a few bags for them. Everything
either stored or tied down as best we could.
If the storm surge stays under 8 feet we'll be fine, and projected
surge as of now is 3-7 feet. My street, according to Google Maps, is
7.5 feet above sea level. We'll see, and worse comes to worst, we'll
scoot. We're not far from a bridge to higher ground.

this a Perfect Storm, or a Frankenstorm as they also say. I've been
watching the projected stormtracks, and ever since they come out with
projections suggesting the storm was going to do a right-cross on the
NYC area, I have been concerned about you.
Good luck and be careful.

windy and rainy here over the past couple days. Hopefully this storm
doesn't do serious damage to NYC or anywhere else. Ideally it "decides"
(*sensu* Nando) to change course out to the North Atlantic. Do whatever
it takes to keep yourself, and more importantly your pets, safe. We have
surfers down here braving the danger, but they are "special" and
knowingly risk life and limb for that awesome wave. Hope you, Gans, and

stories up. Better, our utilities are buried, no poles. So we
should not have any trouble.
Nevertheless, this is NOT a major hurricane. What it is is a HUGE
nor'easter powered by a small hurricane at its center. It seems
to be producing strong winds and rainfall (snow in some areas) in
an area with about a thousand mile diameter.
Just to be sure we've loaded up on food and water and I know where
I put my water wings, just in case.

New Jersey. Much of the area is flood plains separated by ridges.
They get flooded out two or three times a year. This will likely
be no exception.
Don't forget, we had the hurricane come through about a year ago,
but it was smallere in extent. Even so it got up into upper New
York State and parts of New England and did tons of damage.
That's what happens when "weather" hits populated areas. And there
is a lesson here for the future. As weather extremes become more
common, greater and greater numbers of people will be affected.

Jeff Masters seems really concerned about storm surge impacts around NYC:
[quote]Sandy's storm surge a huge threat
Last night's 9:30 pm EDT H*Wind analysis from NOAA's Hurricane Research
Division put the destructive potential of Sandy's winds at a modest 2.6
on a scale of 0 to 6. However, the destructive potential of the storm
surge was exceptionally high: 5.7 on a scale of 0 to 6. This is a higher
destructive potential than any hurricane observed between 1969 - 2005,
including Category 5 storms like Katrina, Rita, Wilma, Camille, and
Andrew. The previous highest destructive potential for storm surge was
5.6 on a scale of 0 to 6, set during Hurricane Isabel of 2003. Sandy is
now forecast to bring a near-record storm surge of 6 - 11 feet to
Northern New Jersey and Long Island Sound, including the New York City
Harbor. While Sandy's storm surge will be nowhere near as destructive as
Katrina's, the storm surge does have the potential to cause many
billions of dollars in damage if it hits near high tide at 9 pm EDT on
Monday. The full moon is on Monday, which means astronomical high tide
will be about 5% higher than the average high tide for the month. This
will add another 2 - 3" to water levels. Fortunately, Sandy is now
predicted to make a fairly rapid approach to the coast, meaning that the
peak storm surge will not affect the coast for multiple high tide
cycles. Sandy's storm surge will be capable of overtopping the flood
walls in Manhattan, which are only five feet above mean sea level. On
August 28, 2011, Tropical Storm Irene brought a storm surge of 4.13' to
Battery Park on the south side of Manhattan. The waters poured over the
flood walls into Lower Manhattan, but came 8 - 12" shy of being able to
flood the New York City subway system. According to the latest storm
surge forecast for NYC from NHC, Sandy's storm surge is expected to be
several feet higher than Irene's. If the peak surge arrives near Monday
evening's high tide at 9 pm EDT, a portion of New York City's subway
system could flood, resulting in billions of dollars in damage. I give a
50% chance that Sandy's storm surge will end up flooding a portion of
the New York City subway system. [/quote]

I think you are right. The maximum flood surge has now been upped
to 11 feet. It will come on Tuesday night. A smaller one will
occur on Monday night.
The thing about this storm is that it is the coalescence of three
major weather systems. If you can look at a weather map you'll
see that right now, with the hurricane still 1000 miles south of
New York, the storm clouds already extend all the way to Cleveland,
Ohio, about 500 miles from here.
The storm is expected to come ashore and them move inland where it
will dump rain for several days without letup.
Ark building may be in order.

and jammed, which is the reason for the strange course of the
storm. The temperature here, in the mid 60's yesterday, is expected
to drop but not to freezing. Inland, where the storm will stall,
there's another story. West Virginia is expected to get socked with
a large snowfall. We expect water, which at least drains away in
the end.

of the underground. After years of political point-scoring, agreements were
made, the money was spent and the Thames Flood Barrier constructed. New
York is more difficult to protect this way because the rivers are wider, but
building the wall higher could be a smart move--though it is a bit late now.
Water getting into the underground and under-river transport systems would
be a major disaster.

mandatory evacuations from "Area A" has been ordered. This includes
Chris Thompson, who I expect is either heading inland or soon will.
It is not that one expects a wall of water. It is that the city has
made it very clear that while they will try to rescue you if you
stay behind, they will NOT risk any rescuer's life to do so.
The barrier islands along New York and New Jersey are particularly
hard to evacuate since bridges are few.
As I write (almost 2 PM EDT) the wind outside is in the 20-25 mph
class and the main storm is yet nowhere near us.

"boroughs" (the equivalent of a county in New York State).
Four of those boroughs are on islands. Only one, the Bronx,
is on the mainland.
Much of the shoreline, and there is a lot of shoreline, fronts
on the Atlantic or is just behind very low barrier islands. A
good bit of the rest lies on Long Island Sound or on one of the
three "rivers" that flow through it.
One might protect the Hudson but that won't save much.
To see what is involved, take a look at:
http://project.wnyc.org/news-maps/hurricane-zones/hurricane-zones.html
The Long Island Sound opens out at the top right of the map.
Some of New York's subways entrances lie near water. And there
are ventilation grates at most underground stations. The
"protection" there is simply a matter of placing concrete so
that one has to go up a few steps (often only one) before going
down into the subway itself. Those could be made higher and the
ventilation grates could be raised as well. But all in all,
rainwater is also important. My local subway station, for
example, has closed twice in the last three months due to
rainwater accumulation.
The main problem is that the subways are over 100 years old (except
for a little bit of new construction) and they are not built up
to modern standards.

Bought a wet-vac. Filled 20 sand bags- will put them out later

Weird thing is, some radio station keeps flashing a map of NYC flood

I did a couple of walkovers of the streets. There's about a 10 foot

rises another foot. Plus, my house is on a small rise.

You might consider the possibility also of freezing temps around the middle of next week, and have a portable heater with adequate fuel, cold weather clothes. Even a tarp and a box of sterno would suffice. Although I'd rather see the missus riding it out in a comfortable hotel room with room service than huddled in a corner under a tarp eating cold beans for days.

Perhaps the test of the argument would be to tie Prawnster to a tree in Far
Rockaway and let him rave and shout at the wind, like King Lear in the storm
scene. If it's all a media hype, nothing really bad will happen to
Prawnster aside from a bit of wetness. If, however, the authorities and
experts have it right, we would never hear from him again.

And the secret of gopher wood has been lost, as well as the secret of
nuclear power with bronze age technology. Have to have nuclear power
to maintain headway in a 40 day and night storm and provide for enough
power for the hydroponics to feed the animals and recycle the waste.
and the radiation caused the mutations for the drastic biological
radiation after the flood.
