I doubt it. I think you must have seen this one instead: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zilla

I've prefer the original guy in a suit Godzilla.

While panic is never a good advisor, there are several warning signs indicating that this storm could indeed be the worst one in this area since people started recording the weather. Let's hope that it won't be, but in the meantime, taking precautions seems like a good idea. Keep safe!

The predictions here in northwest PA are pretty severe, even though it's not directly in the path. We're not used to 65 mph winds or this much flooding. They even predict we may see some snow after it's all over :(

I expect we'll lose power, and the last few times we've lost power it's been for several days on end. Hope everyone else in the direct path of the storm is taking precautions.

THIS.

I better buy what i plan to from the sale in case the power goes out...

Heeeeyyyyyy Sandy Lady!

Hurra-Hurra-Hurra Hurricane Style...

My parents will definitely lose power since even a slight breeze causes an outage back home in southern NY, but I should be okay here in Albany.

Got the laptop charged just in case with some choice GOG's installed, along with a bottle of Bailey's and Captain Morgan to pass the time.

Alcohol and bad weather are so great together.

I know here in Eastern Ky, we're supposed to get a freak snowstorm that supposed to be the worst here in Ky up to 18 ins. Lately my power has been blinking, but no snow yet; just some light rain and cold temps!

My heart goes out to those that are caught in the storm's path. Be safe fellow GOG'ers, to you and any family or friends that live in the path.

Youtube has live updates on the hurricane, if you want to see what's going on:

There are no Hurricanes in my country, but in my hometown(Punta Arenas) we had 100+Km/h several times a month(Local trees grew up curved by the wind).

One death reported so far in Toronto. Yup, this hurricane is not a big deal at all.

Alcohol goes with almost anything. But as a kid, I lived in a rural area with a weak grid, summer thunder storms were sure to take out power several nights during the summer, I have fond memories of reading as a family and some board games by the light of a kerosene lamp.

I've heard of a preparedness strategy that calls of "faking it" once a month. Cut power, make sure your batteries are fresh (you're using them) and everything is where you expect it, make dinner, and unplug from the world. This sounds like it would have the second benefit of just being a reprieve from always going... well too fast is the way I feel in the world (most days I wouldn't trade it, but brief respites are welcome).

I'd still rather have Pecan Sandys myself.

edit: when it rains it fucking pours. My power got knocked out, and I just discovered when I turned it back on that my TV is fried. I checked it online to see what the issue could be, turns out my capacitors are shot, and it will cost me $500 to get it repaired because I think it's past warranty. Part of me just wants to break down and head desk repeatedly. :( Another part of me wants to scream.
