Hurricane Irene!
August 27th, 2011, 6:54pm by JakeDerrick got the heck out of Dodge just before they started to shut down the city. Mike looks to get a nice big ‘ole windstorm. And I’m on an island in the middle of Lake Winnipesaukee, waiting for the storm to announce its arrival around midnight, get serious around noon and peak sometime around 6 PM. I’ll live tweet or live blog as long as I have power & internet… which may not be that long. Any other front-line reports?

Well, we just took a walk around the block (which Adam live-tweeted) — we got one band of heavy rain way out front of the storm so far, should be getting a lot more later (but since the eye will past to our West, we’ll get more wind than rain. Moved in our patio furniture, and charging all our gadgets (expecting a power outage with the high winds) — luckily I’ve got plenty of work to do that doesn’t require the Internet.
