Hi!~
Most of you have probably been busy preparing for hurricane Sandy by stocking up at the local grocery store or gathering up all of the household flashlights(my younger brother). Here where i am in Virginia things aren't that bad, heavy rain and strong winds, not too bad for another Monday. Speaking of Monday's, one good thing that came out of this one was avoiding having to go to school(work for you sophisticated people). Although i did kind of want to go, a free afternoon in the house WITH electricity is never a bad thing. Sure, its still dark and gloomy outside but that's nothing some cup ramen and internet can't fix. For more information on Sandy's effects state-wise, http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2012/10/29/14781430-a-state-by-state-look-at-hurricane-sandys-impact?lite.
Happy Monday Guys!

"FRANKENSTORM"
Weather News to my Non-existent fans-
"Frankenstorm" otherwise more professionally known as Hurricane Sandy is expected to be big. I know right. OK real stuff now. It is a category 2 hurricane (http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/aboutsshws.php). Since it'd be boring if i just told you all the boring facts, facts, and yeah that stuff, ill give you the most IMPORTANT stuff.

- It is supposed to last 5-6 days of which may or may not include, heavy rain, severe wind, flooding etc.
- The east coast is the one to get hit, and states like New York and New Jersey will get the greatest impact.
- NOAA’s Hydrometeorological Prediction Center: “HEAVY SNOWS POSSIBLE ON THE SOUTHWEST EDGE WHERE THE ONTINENTAL POLAR AIR RUSHES ACROSS THE UPPER OHIO VALLEY AND CENTRAL APPALACHIANS AND ADJACENT LOWLANDS TO THE EAST”- I dont know what it means but i saw the word snow.
- It might be worse than 1991's "Perfect Storm" which left 13 dead and over $200 million in damage.
Well there you have it guys~
P.S. Tip- Don't drive if you think the hurricane is just down the street, just saying.
