For those of you wondering why these idiot reporters keep standing in horrible weather giving live reports, I can tell you why they do it. Folks like my mother. She is crazy about storm coverage. She just loves it, and will watch for hours in the hopes that one of these jackasses will get knocked over by the wind or water.
Likewise, she keeps calling me with the lamest storm updates ever. Imagine the worst news network ever (other than Fox) giving you live updates on camera:
“Did I tell you I went to take the dogs for a walk, they went outside, saw how bad it was and turned around. That’s a first!”
“I called our friend Jean, she’s in Wilmington, and she doesn’t know anything about her beach house!”
“Your sister in Connecticut just lost her power.”
I just said, “Oh, wow. Make sure you keep me up to date on all this important stuff,” at which point she said “You’re so sarcastic. I don’t think I like you and I don’t know why your friend does, either.”
She did ask me to forward a question to you all- Does anyone know what is going on with the wild horses of Assateague Island? Are they ok?

For your mom:
“The Chincoteague Volunteer Fire Company opened the gates to fencing of their grazing areas to allow them seek the highest ground on Assateague which they will do instinctively. There is high ground on Assateague Island that will not be covered by flood waters. The ponies will ride out the storm on that high ground. After the storm fire company personnel will get out on Assateague Island to verify that all the ponies are ok. We will post any updates about the ponies we receive.”

The MPR music station that I listen to said that MPR’s news station was going to have two hours of storm coverage so I switched over to see how bad it was. Unfortunately, it was the All Thing Considered crew and when they took breaks from the storm coverage, they went to human interest stories with random conservative entitled white old men.

What is it with apple crisp? My cousin in New York City is settled in for the storm with a massive apple crisp and I just made one too–apples, raisins, cranberries, cardamom and cinnamon. It must be an all american storm comfort food.
Oh, and here was our storm comfort dinner:
1 small package cheese filled ravioli purses
parboiled new potatoes
1/2 lb slab bacon trimmed of fat and cut into cubes
garlic
three carrots cut into big slices
two bunches of kale
fresh thyme
heavy cream
romano cheese
red pepper flakes
Basically I threw everything together and made something between a pasta dish and a chowder out of it. It was incredible.

The ponies should be fine. The current storm surge in that area south of the storm center is 3.4 feet (scroll down on the map to Ocean City, Maryland area). The winds are weaker on the south side and blowing out to sea, thereby reducing surge. The island has high enough ground with that amount of surge for the horses to be safe.

It was scary here today with lots of wind, but what really freaked me out was when my giant cat Louis spent most of the day under the armchair in the living room. I figured he knew with his superior cat sense that the house was going to be blown away. But since about 6:00 he’s been out and about and acting normal, and the wind has died down (I hope for good!), and we haven’t lost power yet so I still don’t know if the generator works or not, but I’m happy not to find out for a while. Like efgoldman, we have invested in a lot of tree care, so fingers crossed.

I opened one of bedroom windows. The rain has stopped but the wind is still high. I closed the window real quick when the curtains were being sucked out.

Dark and stormy night in the Buckeye. Had a power blink about an hour ago, accompanied by the big pop of a transformer blowing out. The circuit for the neighbors across the street is now down, and they are on candlepower. Concerned that all the repair crews went to PA and NJ, leaving the bench empty. The rain and wind have increased steadily over the last six hours, no end in sight.
There was a big ominous crack from the back yard just a bit ago that got me and MrsFromOhio out of our stupor – a quick tour has nothing falling on the house, but I think its only a matter of time before we go dark.

I don;t know what news you’ve been scanning, but so far in NYC, the disaster response(s) – AND the preparation – have been as good as one might expect given that:
A) Sandy was/is an exceptionally large/strong/widespread storm
B) the sheer number of people who live in the affected area
C) the built-up density and development of said area
So far, the regional death toll (ex-New Jersey, AFAICT) is just six people: four by falling trees, one by electrocution from downed lines, one undetermined. Not bad considering that 9-10 million folks live hereabouts.
And: like him or not (and I don’t FWIW), Mayor Mike (the putz) hasn’t fumbled this job: as, apparently, neither have Chris Christie (fat pig), Andrew Cuomo (moron) or Dannel Malloy (nonentity): Hurricane Katrina seems to have been that rare natural disaster that officials have actually learned (and applied) lessons from.
