Well, I think too many people take mother nature too lightly.
I used to lived in a city where tropical storms and sudden heavy down pours are common. We learned to fear mother nature because as children we used to talk about all the disasters that happen in the area we camp. We remind each other not to go under bridges for ANY reason especially rain. We talked about whose relative got killed walking in the beach when thunder strike him. So we take extra precautions when news about bad weather is coming. Quite frequently, even the extra precautions are usually not even enough. Just like what the pic of Paul took, if someone is in the house, he could really got hurt if not for evacuation is in effect. So ever since I knew some neighbor died in a car that felt during last year's tornadoes. I mind all the people who have to drop by not to stay in the car where tall trees are around my neighborhood.
Speaking of this, I myself also take danger not serious enough. Remember last year, when I was setting up the music festival in Catskill, residents continuously mind me about the black bears that roams around-I did not take the advise too seriously and sleep all by myself on the stage while all the workers stayed in the cabin. In fact, I have seen a baby dear's foot bone along the trail to the hill top and yet it is not enough warning for me to realize the danger involved in the wild.

What a moron..he rode it there because he couldn't cross the RR tracks to get to the ocean? No RR tracks that had to be crossed between there & the ocean...I hope he tore the bottom of it to hell.

You think that's crazy, watch this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6b54bZepoA&feature=related I feel bad for anyone in that part of Jersey. Best part of it all is that this developing storm Katia has a good chance of being worst than Irene
It's too early to tell if it will even reach us.

Here in Monroe county in the Poconos area we got hit so bad with Power outgage! Speaking for us we had no power up to a week. We had NO power from Sunday about 3AM til Thursday 12:30PM. Unable to get a generator until Wednesday afternoon I had to drive to Hackestown, NJ to HD to purchase one. All I can hear from my wife telling me I sould have gotten a generator a long-time ago.
During all those days without a generator I had one MP40 running from a 100W power converter connected to my Nissan Rogue days and night. But since I was unable to connect a heater, and run lights, the water temp dropped to about 65-69 degrees. I was prepare for the worst, and stress started to set in for my tank knowing I was going to lose everything.
And more upset cause the week prior I had spend a load of money on a 4 eye BPC Flame Thrower, and many rare zoa! I was bummed! We lost everything in the fridge which was pack, and heart broken cause my 2 yr old daughter kept on asking that is was dark, and no TV for her to watch "Big World".
The cause of the power outgage was due to a fallen tree on the power line, the house back of ours, and PPL Electric was doing Priorty first, from town to town.
End result, no fish lost. However, lost most of my nice collection of Zoa, Utter chaos, BH, VDM, Scarface and many more. Lost a few chalice, All acan turned white, and the first SPS my Tyree Purple Monster a 4-5 in colony was the first that bleached. The only SPS holding up in my Pink lemonaide. Today notice my monti have turned white. This is so stressfull loosing so much. And I was starting to enjoy the colors after installing my new LED's that I purchase from Wingo.
Lesson learn, if going to be in an expensive hobby, be prepare for the worst. But own a generator, cause you will never know when it comes.

I can give you some zoa to restock but I guess they are the low end ones(I never know the names of them anyway) which may not be of your interests.
