To all the East Coast of USA members. Hope to see you all online when the winds die down.

thank you. I've prepared as best I could although it looks like as of now the tropical storm and hurricane wind speed probability models both have it headed right over my head some time around Tuesday.

Wow just noticed even the equity and options markets are closed due to bad weather...must be pretty bad then? Trust you guys stay safe!

This must be feeling so scary I hope everyone'll be ok.

Wow. Good luck over there. Do you have storm shelters in the garden like in wizard of oz.?

I wonder why are we only just hearing about this storm when 67 people have been confirmed killed across the Bahamas and the Caribbean, including Cuba and Puerto Rico, as a result of it?

The power of media. Look at 9/11...terrible thing, but made the tsunami victims pale in comparison when there were tonnes more casualties!

We've been hearing about it for over a week already including the damage and deaths in the Caribbean.

In Cuba alone there was hundreds of dollars in damages.

We've only heard of it since it's going to hit all them rich folks, I mean mainland America. Now it's all over the news. Good old selective British media(!)

It's a terrible and I imagine quite a scary thing to happen wherever and whoever it hits.
