edit: Also if you're in the direct path it comes in two parts, it will get weirdly calm if you're in the eye. Then all of a sudden it will blast you with part two. | ||

As for NC and such, I can't comment. Thank God... I'm in Boston and was reading over this thread to know if I should give a fuck or not. At this rate, it seems that it's just rain and decently high winds, right? It's Boston. +5 days of straight rain happens every once in a while. | ||

As long as it isn't flooding in your area I wouldn't worry too much. | ||

Dunno how it'll be by Boston, but North Carolina and Virginia got hit pretty damn hard. The thing about Irene is that she's moving more than twice as slow as that of a normal hurricane, therefore doubling the amount of time that a given area is subjected to those winds and rain. | ||

Yep you can most likely carry on without any fucks given. I hear you on that little rain issue... Coming from a place where it NEVER rains I was pretty excited when I learned it actually rains for days on end sometimes in Boston - til I learned firsthand that "sometimes" means "usually". | ||

Coming from a place where it NEVER rains I was pretty excited when I learned it actually rains for days on end sometimes in Boston - til I learned firsthand that "sometimes" means "usually". I didn't notice until sometime this year when i was watching a movie about agriculture in a class that New England weather is just stupid. I've lived here all my life and never knew any other way. They said that New England has the most volatile, random changes in weather and was like, "Not really. I mean, I've seen it be sunny for a moment, then start snowing, then be sunny, then hail, then thunder, then be sunny, then snow, then rain all in two hours, but that doesn't mean... Oh. Shit. We suck." | ||
