Yikes, Hurricane Earl

[Bambi]

it looks like it's headed right to Nova Scotia. this is the current projected wind speeds:


I live where it's projected to be 130 km/hr. Keep your fingers crossed that it will blow east a bit and go out to sea.

My fingers are crossed for you bambi, I believe iggy is also in NS, I'll cross some toes as well.

I think this is out of date already... darn storm not being too predictable. In this chart I'm in the 100-130Km/h area but the latest track has it moving more to the west of the province so we might be just fine. Time will tell. Have to find a beach somewhere though as I'm sure there's going to be some surf!

Here is the NOAA site with all the information you need on Earl. They do regular updates as well.

National Hurricane Center

Get yourself prepared now guys.... Stash 10 gallons of drinking water, non perishable food, batteries for flashlight etc. and do it now. Don't wait until the last minute. If you can get a hold of a generator then grab one but make sure to use it in well ventilated places so as not to have issues with CO2.
for luck.

still looks like it will pass over us but perhpaps more in NB. I figure that sunday will be a good day for surf and pictures. but for now I just want to ensure that all are safe.

Yup, looks like it could get a little breezy and damp. We have been here before though.

Fingers crossed for you. These storms are so erratic, so with some luck it'll miss you.
