+1I keep harping on this but it needs to be harped on. Surge is the main concern with this storm. Surge kills during the storm. Freshwater flooding kills after the storm. Rain and wind are generally only sideshows. They only destroy property.
If you live near the coast on land that is just above sea level...then leave...especially if you've been asked to evacuate. If you have friends and loved ones who are similarly situated...make them leave with you.

Around here, we are all concerned about Sam's safety. The brewery is not too far from the beach. Sandy better not disrupt the brewing! ;DJust made a quick dash to the local grocery store (about 200 yards from the house). LOTS of staples still left on the shelves, but DAMN... no more Dogfish 60 Minute IPA. (Pretty much what I expected.)
