It's coming tonight
Hurricane Irene already hit North Carolina this early morning
and we're expecting rain before the actual Hurricane Irene will make its appearance after midnight to the East Coast.

I am ready: groceries, plenty to drink, bags of ice, full tank of gas, flashlights ready, pods charged, and even filled the bathtubs of water. Did I miss anything?

Expecting electricity to go out from the high 50-70mph winds, flooding from expecting 5-10" of rain, and trees down
and maybe a delay or cancellation for the first day of school on Monday. (It would be the first time for a rainy day instead of a snow day)
