Two to four hours from landfall

and the winds are picking up.  This is the maple in the backyard that serves as the center support for my 88' EDZ.


So far, recorded gusts from nearby weather stations have topped out at 45 MPH.  That may double as Sandy makes landfall.  I heard a loud crack before. Turns out a branch in the neighbor's back yard snapped.  Hope that's not in store for us.

Power has gone out briefly several times already.   Marianne has called to inform me she might be stuck overnight at the dialysis clinic where she's an RN.  Seems that some of the local roads have been closed.

    You and your family are in our prayers up this way Larry. Sandy has not as of yet had any affect up this way. It is supposed to be coming in this evening with winds and rain.
