Winds on the beach are gusty and slowly increasing -- the rain droplets hurt my face at this speed.
Nice surf out there but nothing major flooding-wise since it's low tide, although the wind is still blowing from the North and thus against the waves.
Barometric pressure dropped 30 points to 970 in the last three hours and continues to fall.
Got notice from Con Ed that they will be turning power off around 6pm. Will venture out again before the the eye makes landfall. Should be fun with all the lights off in the neighborhood.
My huge battery pack (leftover from the telescope mount) is pretty handy -- beside long lasting power for the flashlight it has a radio, siren and outputs for charging devices. Not that it will help with the cell towers powered down...
Living on the edge, living on the edge...
