Also, felt it here in NJ. Neighbors say they have friends/family who felt it from Texas o.O. That doesn't sound possible given it was a 5.8 originating in Virginia. | ||

Yes, you shouldn't go swim 100 yards out in the ocean. But to think that you need to board up, get dozens of gallons of gas + a generator ready, and get enough food to last you a week for a fucking Cat 2 is a joke. I've been through many, many hurricanes in my lifetime and for EVERY SINGLE Cat 1 or Cat 2 I have never boarded up anything and I've NEVER had a problem EVER. Neither has anyone I known, for that fact. I've taken my dog for a fucking walk during a Cat 1 once. Yes, you shouldn't take it as a rainshower on a sunny Summer afternoon. That's a granted for ANY 'major' storm. However, you are treating this as if it's a damn Cat 4, as I said earlier. I hate when Europeans talk about Hurricane like they know. You are not qualified to give advice unless you got a degree in the subject or have experienced it personally. Cat 1 is literally a rainshower and a Cat 2 is "Oh something might happen if I'm drunk and stupid or I live on the edge of a giant muddy hill" uh oh, he's lived in florida his whole life he must know everything! | ||

Where Raleigh is situated, a category 2 storm would lose power as it goes overland, and you're probably not going to get much besides very heavy rain and occasional strong wind gusts. I've lived in the Triangle area for 9 years (total, not continuously), and honestly the winter storm (around 2000 ish) was more disruptive than any hurricane or tropical storm that's ever hit us. On the other hand, I wouldn't be out and about in Hurricane Irene either, and I certainly wouldn't be driving on account of the visibility and how hard it is to drive in heavy rain. I had originally planned on going to MLG, but depending on how things look, I might just watch some of the streams instead. | ||

Have you ever even seen a Category 2 Hurricane? It's like a pacifist nor'easter on pain killers. | ||
