Ray, I suspect since landfall now is less than 3 hours away since the sto= rm has sped up, that power here will be lost between now and then, think I = saw that over 95000 without power in the area, so I know we are doomed.=20
Only my youngest son the Cop is out working right now, he says WAWA emplo= yees should be considered "essential personnel" in order to keep the coffee= and donuts available to him. ::>)
Winds now are steadily getting worst, only one big dead branch down so fa= r, I just got soaking wet getting my Emerg Generator setup, I had to rig up= an old patio table and use that with cardboard, tarp and duct tape to make= the Emerg Gen rain resistant, not supposed to run in rain if you allos the= plug outlet area exposed, so hopefully my setup will work, it is out in th= e elements now, so hopefully it survives staying dry for when I need to go = out and start up the thing

Buell, I certainly have found NJ Coppers in NJ with a metal detector and= I would assume that hundreds of others have been found too. My first foun= d NJ Copper was dug in my parent's back yard! (Cedar Grove, NJ) Don Hartma= n is keeping the list of "dug NJs" and I think he has obtained information = on about 400 of them. I look forward to him writing it up. If you don't l= ive at the beach or in a flood area, NJ is actually a safe place to have yo= ur colonial coins. In the Midwest, coins could get blown away by tornadoes= . On the West coast, your coins could slide into the ocean if you live wes= t of the San Andreas Fault Line. In the Pacific North West, your coins cou= ld be buried under feet of lava... NJ is about as safe as anywhere I guess= . LOL! Ray

I have not heard any new reports for our local condiitions in town, n= or whether my son and Daughter in law got to go home after the shifts last = night (one a cop and one a EMT/Paramedic) Talk about elevation, I believe = my property is 22 -26 feet and we are 18 air miles from the ocean, about 1.= 5 miles from the Great Egg Harbor River.

It would wipe out two bridges if it went = and cut our town into two, with those bridges being the only East to West r= outes within 6-20 miles depending which area you want to go to. Sure hope = they drained the lake prior, they usually do and it still floods our town..= . I am safe from flooding, we had 13 inches of rain in 24 hours back in Aug= 1997. I have a stream and pond bordering my property, but my house sits up= on a rise from there and no problem. That storm wiped out about half dozen= bridges in or immediate area......
I know Mike Demling lives much closer to the coast than I do, my Aunt= lives near him, so I hope his community fairs well! I cannot think of an= y other C4 members in this immediate area.
This is round two for Southern New Jersey, we got wiped out pretty ba= d on June 30th from a Derecho Storm, tens of thousand of trees downed and s= napped, no power here for 4 days, some places over a week in the heat, temp= s near 100* and I spent a week doing cleanup on the property.=20=20=20=20=20

Here in Mays Landing NJ, my son (a Policeman) just stopped by and s= aid that=20 already the water in town is over the banks onto some lawns, the wa= ter I am=20 talking about is the Great Egg Harbor River which is tidal all the = way up to=20 Mays Landing, about 18 miles inland from Ocean City, so it is alrea= dy as high as=20 I have ever heard of in a long time, and the storm is still hundred= s of miles=20 away but the tides are going whacky earlier than I thought they wou= ld.
