Southern Connecticut, 20 min from nyc or so, big city.
I was all hyped for the last storm! First big storm in my new building, I grew up getting prepared because my parents ALWAYS AND FOREVER LOOSE POWER.
Filled my bathtub with water, filtered drinking water, a weeks worth, in jugs in my kitchen.
We did not even loose power.
I am expecting something similar.
But seriously my building is built like a tank and all the power lines are underground hear so yaa...yaaa....
My parents on the other hand, they are fucked.
I keep telling them to come spend the night with me for it, but they won't leave there dog and I can't have dogs in my apartment sooo oh well, no power for them.

God I even moved everything valuable away from the windows because parts of my town and the surrounding towns were told to evacuate....

There used to be a giant pine tree in my backyard that was rotting from the inside, and every time we'd have a hurricane warning I'd pack up EVERYTHING in my room. Clothes, books, manga, videogames, DVDs, figurines, all of it in tubs that I'd bring down into the basement in case the storm was so bad the tree would get knocked over and collapse on my bedroom.

I'm really glad it was finally torn down because now I'm safe and don't have the paranoia to move my shit around during hurricanes anymore.

Oh god, does anyone remember that storm like, 3 years ago? The really bad storm around thanksgiving?
So storm story time, about my parents house again.

So I was staying up in ME with my boyfriend for thanksgiving, and I get a txt from my sister, it goes "You know that giant tree in our front yard?" I go ya, can't miss it, huge giant old tree. "Well, it fell through your bedroom window"
It did not just fall through the fucking window, it tore apart most of the front of my parents house.
Thank god I was not home, I would have died, or at the very least be honorably maimed from all the glass from the window it shattered.
and wood shavings from the wall/my dresser.

So ya, fuck treas. They have since removed all of the ones in range of the house on the property...but ya. wish I had proper warning to get anything out but surprisingly most of my stuff was OK, the only thing on my dresser was my jewelry box and while that shattered it broke in such a way I only lost one shitty pair of earrings, and that dresser was mostly full of pj's and old clothing so no big loss.
Getting the glass out of EVERYTHING was imposable though, I moved latter that year and I still found glass in some of the boxes.

Always surprising to see another cold northerner.

I'm not looking forward to this storm, tides are going to be running high when it hits and I live right on the ocean. We're probably going to have to leave and stay somewhere else. Bad storms mixed with giant trees near the house at the end of a hard to drive on dirt road 10 feet from open ocean doesn't sound like a solid plan.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!

My old house, over a hundred years old, only lost power a handful of times in 20+ years

The apartment I live in now? Fucking loses power over any damn little thing. Last Halloween we were out for 2 days because of the freak snow storm.

Every time the power goes out here this little beeping alarm goes off in the basement below my apartment and it can't be shut off so I have to hear this constant high pitched beep for days.

I'm already going insane just thinking about it. Not to mention the plague doctor mask I'm making is so going to go to waste.
