I know we have a lot of members up and down the East Coast, looks like lots of heavy rain from the Carolina's to Boston...

Anybody worried about flooding or power outages this weekend?

Hope everybody is well and safe till the storm passes!

Just drove down from Boston to NJ. Yes, a lot of rain but it's easing off right now. Fcst says it will stop raining around midnight.
Growing up in Europe, I still can't get used to the power land-lines.

Sorry, but after Sandy (6 Days w/o power) I can't stand unions anymore. Fu$&ers!

Unions can be powerful but I have rarely seen a hurricane caused by one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

Not yet, but I'm sure they are working on it.

After sandy, there have been 100s of trucks with line-man waiting in DE, waiting for permission from the NJ union to work in NJ.

The first couple of days the NJ union refused the permission, while millions didn't have power.
Just to protect their jobs.

They are still refusing to install in ground lines. I guess those idiots thinks it's a 2 months job and they will not have a job afterwards.

Anyways, rain is easing off but the wind picked up in Princeton.
