So far light rain. Lots of light outside. Wind blwoing but not violent. REasonably warm (72 or so). REally a creepy feeling. But no real violence. Lost power once so far. for a minute.

Going home now. No school tomorrow. Going to try to see if I can buy a used N64 from a store that sells them, or if everything's closed. Light rain and some wind. Pathetic.

Yeah...see the earlier part of the thread. I ended up costing my SBU two nights at a 5 star hotel. Not getting my training done and driving two 4 hour stints in a day.

I'm not a poor grad student here -- I'm living off of $700 a month AFTER my rent was paid for the entire semester for my student apartment (not a dorm -- apartment).

Just lost power again for a sec. this is going to suck. It sounds like they don't want to send crews out as the storm gets worse. So when power goes down it will just stay down till most of the storm is over. Lazy bums...

Several more 1 second power lossses. They must be shifting load, like crazy.

Wind is kicking up a little. had a tree hitting the side of my house. This is more like it.

This is a wimpy hurricane, I'm disappointed.

Everyone down here was freaking out, getting sandbags and bottled water and crap, this is weak. We had stronger storms a week or two ago.

Maybe it'll get better, we'll see.

Final toll of Isabel: scattered puddling, intense breezes, some over-turned cups.

OMG!!! There's another typhoon coming this way!

It kinda sucks, as it's probably going to ruin our footie friendly tomorrow, but it's better we get hit than Korea again. I'd hate to see hundreds more people die when it could hit here and not hurt anyone.

edit: Looks like we're going to avoid the worst of it.
