States of emergency have been declared all along the East Coast of the US, and a number of eastern seaboard towns are urging residents to evacuate on a voluntary basis, warning that rescue may be be later impeded by the storm if they wait to leave.
My cousins and friends in the New York/New Jersey area are telling me the weather's getting pretty wild, and Deeky reports that Baltimore is battening down the hatches, too. His major was on CNN earlier, and she was all President Obama's been AWESOME helping us prepare. (Subtext: Fuck you, Bush!) Meanwhile, Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell begrudgingly admitted on MSNBC a few minutes later that the President had personally been in contact with all the governors of affected states, and noted that this is not a partisan issue before reminding everyone he endorses Romney.
Anyway. I hope everyone is safe and that the storm never gets as bad as feared.
