no but for real I am worried for my family in Hartford, CT. Hopefully nothing will happen to them other than the motherfucking basement flooding (again) and maybe a power outage.

i was worried about the rain until i realized what the wind speeds for a cat 2 hurricane are, like 95-115 mph.

But what you don't seem to realize is that the northeast isn't like florida. We aren't well equipped for hurricanes so its definitely a big deal...

you are all being SUCH fucking pussies. we've had plenty before and this is a pathetic storm compared to the one that fucked new orleans up. if you're on a beach, leave and stay somewhere where you won't have a fucking tree crush you and you'll be fine. grow a pair you sally asses... actually you know what, stay on the beach because you will most likely not die and you'll get 20ft. waves. SURFS UP PUSSIEEES!

I just dislike sweeping assumptions. Who knows. You probably will be feeling bad to hear of people that diied in this storm when you were being rude. Also: for northern areas that are not prepared for storms even 50-80 mph winds are destructive....we had a THUNDERSTORM in my area and cars were destroyed, trees splintered, power outages for 24 hours and blocked streets from a storm much weaker than Irene is going to be. Thanks for calling me out but you're a noob, grow up.

yes a noob that grew up in NH and experienced many bad varying storms... yes i have no idea what i'm talking about.... which is why you live where? if you dislike sweeping assumptions, like yours of me and the assumption of how bad the storm was going to be (you were off by 30mph, by the way), then you must REALLY hate yourself.

Are they letting people on to the island? In past big storms they wouldn't let people go out, only allow them to come back to the mainland
