I think I will be OK from flooding. Moreso heavy rain and wind is what I'm expecting. Already getting some pretty good wind right now off and on. I think the power going out is likely my biggest concern. I got quite a few books I need to read. So I'm good on that front if it does go out. Glad I work from home. Going to go to the grocery store in about an hour, then I will be hunkered down for the next 48 hours.

Aww snap .. this is your first real east coast storm.
We freak out.
The stores are already barren and run through.
Go now man, hit up several stores, sometimes a home depot might be the place to get water/gatoraide. or a Dicks sporting goods. the non traditional stores.
id fill a few buckets of water now so you can flush the toilet if water goes out.

but then again .. its a tropical storm now so you should be good.
but .. general rule .. we freak out and over react to any storms around here
