Kicking Up A Storm Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 I think stocking up on beer and batteries tomorrow will be a good idea! Wonder how bad it will get in the DC area? I will be mightily bored should power be lost, though (as exciting as it can be)..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pityflakes Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 They probably mean East coast? Specifically the northeast. I'm hoping they meant Northeast, but that's not what they said. I don't see this hitting the OBX stronger than Fran, or even Floyd, for that matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePhotoGuy Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Ocean City Initiates Phase I of Emergency Plan Updated: 8:30 a.m. 8/25/11 Ocean City Emergency Management officials have initiated phase one of the hurricane action plan in preparation for Hurricane Irene. All persons desiring to travel to Ocean City are asked to postpone their visits until the existing situation improves. Mobile home residents in Ocean City and those living in known flood-prone areas should secure their homes and prepare for possible evacuation. Persons should secure or move all watercraft. All persons are asked to tune into Ocean City Government Access Channel (Channel 4) for further detailed information or advisories. Updates will also be provided on recorded emergency management line, 410-723-6666, www.ocmdemergency.com and on 1670 AM. Ocean City has also initiated evacuation of all international workforce students. All international workforce students will report to assigned transportation pick-up location. They will be transported to predetermined staging location(s). The International workforce students will then be under the jurisdiction, and become the responsibility of, the State of Maryland, by prior agreement, for further transportation and relocation. Ocean City is expected to receive a significant impact from Hurricane Irene. Easterly gale force winds should start affecting the area on Saturday, August 27 at 6 p.m. with storm force winds arriving around 4 a.m. and northeasterly hurricane force winds arriving near 6 a.m. The highest wind speeds from Hurricane Irene should occur near 9 a.m. when top sustained winds, from the north, could reach 90 mph with gusts near 112 mph. Winds should decrease below hurricane force shortly thereafter. Sustained winds will fall below gale force after 3 p.m. and generally be from the north during this period of decreasing winds. Expect gusts above gale force level for several more hours thereafter. The total rainfall for the Ocean City area over the next three days is forecast to be 9.5 inches. This can vary significantly as tropical storm and hurricane rainfall is very difficult to predict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigjohndc Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 I was in North Carolina when Fran hit in 1996, one of the main reasons we lost alot of trees was we had just been soaked with rain in the week before the hurricane hit. With the forecast calling for heavy rain tonight, if the west track continues for Irene aren't we looking at a scenario where a few heavier squalls could do serious damage from DC north and east? Even if the worst part of the storm stays east. Back to lurking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if the worst part of the storm stays east. Back to lurking. Sustained TS winds into DC area would do some damage for sure. GFS was also advertising a predecessor rain as well last night. I guess maybe that's factored into overall but 10"+ from today thru the end is probably not out of the question at this pt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosemont/old town Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 The wet bar on the mega ark has been stocked. I'm ready to go. Just got back from Whole Foods after memories of the Snow Storms set in (I was able to acquire two cans of tomatoes and that was about it) Thank God that New Belgium just entered the market, got two bombers each of Fat Tire and Ranger and enough eggs and sausage for a week of breakfast burritos. Even if it misses, I win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baltimore area would seem particularly susceptible given their wetness lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mappy Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 What? There's two arks now? It seems that way - snowfan has made a mega ark... while mine is just the usual ark. I understand if you need to reserve your seat elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should build a bridge between the two arks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
