I hope.
We're sticking it out at home in the Ocean State. The house is halfway up a hill, and if the gutters are working, the half-in-the-hillside basement is likely to only be temporarily wet. I'm concerned about trees falling on the house or the cars - mostly the house. Or pieces being blown off....
At any rate, the current track is looking better for us here at the moment.
We've laid in some food, cooked some stuff that will keep, have water, etc.
I've prepared a basic set of go-bags, tho I'm not sure where we'd go or where we think we'd be able to get to.
Looting or other human mayhem is unlikely here. The shotgun is locked, tho a box of shells are sitting nearby in case... of... geez, I dunno. If it got bad enough that we had to flee I might pack it in the truck.
My BK2 really oughta be in the go-bag, but I can't legally pack my Beckers in this little state, so the BK2 is out. Maybe it's silly to consider that in a flight situation. Or maybe an axe is what's really called for. CT is more friendly, and a likely destination being so close. However the spare knife I've packed is the practical 3-incher below. A2 tool steel with G10 handles, red liners, brass pins, Kydex sheath. I've got some radios, multi-tool, snacks, water, phones.
Here's comes the rain and wind now.
Kydex w/ tek-lock and molded-in drain hole - may be important this week!:
3" A2, G10:
Turned eggs and milk into comestibles that will keep outside the fridge:
Good luck to the rest of you in the path.
